I love doing things once and doing it right. I wanted to buy a nice car and fix it up nice once until I could afford something crazy later in life. I bought my black, rustless 93 lude si with 63k on it two years ago.
I had to repair crazy stuff all the time, I put a really nice clutch in, I always used oem parts, even in body repair, and I'm just in the hole with it.
I'm about halfway(money spending wise) through my boost project, and I might have to pull the plug!
I'm moving to CA next year to go to Cal Poly and the damn thing wont be legal. After I get CA residency, I will be screwed! Ill have to register it in state.

This is bad! Should I SELL my money pit? Part out the 2500k worth of parts? Forget about all the parts I had to fix? Get an s2000?

But i love my prelude! Somebody tell me what to do!

 

Find a way to keep it!

 

just make it a track car... and if you really wanna drive it on the street for a while get a temp plate.

You will need to make some friends in the business. Its not like there aren't any turbo ludes in CA.

 

thats my point! arent there other people getting things done! im not the only person ever who has had this problem.

 

update! ive decided to sell my turbo parts.. and most likely the car . PM me if you need any parts.

 

ouch, sucks to hear man, but hey, if youre getting an s2k, you wont miss the lude THAT much lol.

i think greddy kit is the only kit CARB approved or sumpthin.....

 

there's a carb # on it, as long as they see the carb # they call it legal

 

Dude honestly....if u care that much,there are shops w shady techs that will pass ur car no matter what for a little extra cash.I know one in town that has this reputation...Im gonna check it out.

 

LOL, i had the same quarral with myself yesterday, had an offer for 8k for my 94 vtec lude and my friend was selling his AP1 S2000 for 13k I put it up for sale on a buncha forums and websites, then I was depressed all day thinking about how life would be without my lude. I spent so much time and money into my car, around 8k in mods. well anywho long story short I decided to keep my lude and fix it up with a new paint job and fix all the dings. The MAIN reason I decided not to go for the S2000 is they are super common now days, and they are almost all modded nicely. I like getting comments about my car, its rare to find a nicely modded 4th gen.

 

so whos interested in the parts for sale?
