Right now i am working on my engine bay and my friends said they saw this prelude awhile ago in a magazine with a 5th gen in it with a nice engine bay.... they wont tell me whats done to it or anything... So i am now trying to find out for myself....

Can anyone think of any preludes from the past year or so that have been in magazines? Post some pics

thanks

 

I have no answer for your question. But people that I have seen with nice engine bays have performed wire tucks and hidden or removed such things as power steering, ac, cruise, fuse block, battery etc.. They also close up un needed holes on the firewall as well as the inner fenders, mostly from stuff you just removed and then repainted, clear coated and waxed the empty bay before reinstalling the engine. You can also get aftermarket parts that have a nicer finish than stock parts and or clean and paint, powder coat or jet hot coat oe that you are keeping. Do a searches and you can find pictures or before durings and after wire tucks and shaves.

 

I have a full wire tuck right now and a shaved bay that i am working on... he said it is something different though

I don't think it has been in any magazine before. I could be wrong though

^to my knowledge, Max's prelude has not been in a magazine yet. just so you know, his kit's not a real mugen kit.

 

dang.... he just lost cool points.... jk jk. it still looks amazing.

 

Christ that Engine bay is sexy.

 

Nice Lude. Sounds like your friends have you looking for a needle in a haystack, and won't even tell you what haystack to look in. There is a lot of stuff you can remove, tuck and hide in your engine bay to make it look clean. ABS, PS, AC etc... Good luck in your search.

 

thanks

the prelude is from Japan is what he also said.
