Well no more Prelude for me. For the next 2-4 weeks it'll be in the shop getting a new tranny. Mine decided to take a crap around the 75,000 mark. Good thing I still have it warrantied. have to see how much that 5 speed swap is......

Because you didn't create it and its still automatic

I agree also, but auto is a bit better for a high powered car in the 1/4 mile. Because you cant shift faster than the an auto and you won't have as much traction prob. as the 6spd does.

But still....you didnt build it..dunno what could be wrong and theres no fun("fun") in buying a car thats already built.

 

Hehe, true true. **** used cars, from here on out, I'm only gonna get something new. I ran the vin on the Prelude awhile ago and I'm the third owner of the car. Kinda scary to think what they did to my car previously.

Maybe with a Chevy V8 muscle car, but in the context of a 5th gen lude I am going to have to politely disagree with you as an owner of a high powered SS lude. Off the line sucks, it's like having turbo spool.

 

yeah but thats with every used car the only way to tell is to feel your car out. I rather take my chances with a used car thats why i say thank the lord for the lemon law and the test drive before you buy. Cause insurance nowadays is truely a rip-off. My wifey has an aunt and a uncle who both work for state farm please if any of you do dont take this offensively they now have 5 cars and dont even have to pay for insurance and have three houses and hes an agent for the company. Im like so thats how they do it when you crash or ask for a quote they stay givin it to us teens raw without the ky-gelly literally. And buy whatever they want. and you know what else is also bad he doesnt even driver the impala caprice or the ss camaro .

 

/\ that was very confusing to read at the end, but anyway 1/4 is boring anyway . Go get yourself a used S2000 if you've got the money and if not get a used 5speed lude

 

Get a nice tranny cooler and Stall convertor.

Ask Shark about the Level 10 torque converter jobs dude. I myself have never heard of anyone that's had one done successfully, so nobody knows whether it would be an improvement or not...
