Just bought this . Needs some interior. Well a lot of interior work everything is falling apart but I love it already. Planning on trading wheels for some better looking 16"
Would be nice to hear your experienced opinions!
Has a stage 1 clutch. Stock rebuilt engine

 

Your pic doesnt work.....

 

Can't get pic to upload nvm got it!!
More info on the car it has a straight pipe exhaust with a magnaflow muffler. (To loud in my opinion)

 

They're addictive ... I still have my 92 S though she's in a state of repair and just bought a 96 Si that is keeping me busy... I love the junkyard..

 

yea i was looking for a newer hatch or so but i found this and i like it a lot more than i thought i would.

 

pic of the engine.
its an f22 rebuilt 40k miles ago. (or so the girl i bought it form said)
showing 288k freakin miles on the odo!

head gasket leak?

 

After two days of driving the car around town the clutch went out.
Took it to mechanic and he replaced slave and master cyl ($150) and he said I needed break pads all around so $200 more. Fixd the wipers and one door lock. Slowly getting it fixed .
Been driving it for 5 days or so and I like it more everyday it picks up pretty dam good.
I'm glad it could be saved on time

 

 

Welcome
In my opinion, that car looks clean! And I think black wheels look great on red cars. That sucks that it already had a head gasket leak on a recently rebuilt engine. Have any future plans for the lude?

 

Nice prelude, man. Gets me stoked about working on the 4th gen I've got on hold for me. Can't wait to sell my EJ1 and put some love into the lude.

 

Thanks! I hear you man I whish I had $5k to drop on this car. That would be enough lol.

Future plans: -shocks(need them bad!)
-Window tint
- climate control needs repair
-power locks
-and speedometer needs to b fixed.
After all this is taken care off I want to go back to suspension and make sure it handles good and smooth.
We'll see what next after that

 

more pics.. i need shocks. i am debating on just getting monroe for $150 all around or should i get kyb agx's $90 each in the back and get the front ones later???? any insight?
i plan on lowering it half inch or so later on.

 

 

nice man i just got my 95 honda prelude s im fixing up as well love it mines got 257k on it running strong about put all around shocks on mine and brake job my back shocks are dead lol good luck with yours

 

thanks. what brand shocks are you going with?? any pics?

 

ive seen some pretty cheap deals on ebay on shocks just go to ebay and type in 92 honda prelude shocks but as far as what im putting on cause mine are like dead dead dead lol im just go to advance and get the monroe ones think 66 apiece they got kyb ones but the oem ones are fine for me plus kyb are like 15more bucks more guy put this up about kyb shocks

Comments about KYB Gas Strut:

At 137K miles on Honda Prelude (base). I have to replace the front with pairs of KYB struts, drive like new not too soft or bouncy. The rear was replaced with Honda OEM at twice the cost; wish I discovered these before rear was done. No more bottoming out at end of slope drive way. Time will tell on reliability, but it's life time warranty.

 

very nice, im looking into buying a 92-93 prelude S myself. lightest 4th gen lude.

 

Quick question.
can i install this type of climate unit in my car?


if it came with this one stock?

 

of course the first reply is a troll! welcome to honda-tech where everyone knows everything and you are always wrong.

Anyways... nice lude. How is the paint holding up?

 

paint looks really good! (from far away) lol .
only a few mistakes done when it was painted but i plan on fixing all that later.
i like the color.
been planning on repainting the wheels. or just stripping them down to aluminum if possible.
I got lucky enough to find a 94 prelude that was wrecked and i can get spare parts from so i think i will be fixing the interior up pretty good

 

i need a gauge cluster part the one with the temp/gas gauge mines out and im not paying crazy stupid prices on ebay and i found another one for like 80 but says dont know if it works lol any leads guys thxs

 

junk yard? that's what everyone on here says lol

If anyone reading knows if the 94 and 92 center consoles are interchangeable please let me know!?

i got a 92 and found a 94 that has a diferent style of center console the one with the cup holder i'm not sure if i could just swap them out. tried researching and found nothing.. please and thank you
