Default Keep my current set-up or sell it and get a prelude? Advice?

Right now I have a '90 4dr. accord ex with a JDM h22 with an auto tranny(sucks I know) CAI, GReddy cat-back w/ N1 muffler, DC sports 4-2-1 header, JG cam gears. I have UO Racing pullies but they have been taken off.

What I'm wondering and I'm some of you prelude owners can help is... Should I sell my current car while I can get good money for it and buy like a '97-'98 prelude with the h22 and most importantly a 5 speed and go turbo with that or do you think I should just fix up what I have now.

I haven't talked to many prelude owners so I would like some opinions on this. Thanks!

have you thought of buying a 92-96 S/Si and dropping the engine in it? You could use the (si) h23 tranny or the (s) f22 tranny with the vtec.. just need to buy a new ECU

Yeah something like that was considered but the reason I am thinking of going with something newer is so that I don't have such an old car. My car is in great shape and is on its way to be painted next month(thanks to the person who keyed it). But there are a few things that would have to be done from just wear and tear on the vehicle before any more mods would be done.

A newer car just sounds like a better investment but I want some prelude owners opinons. How do you guys like your prelude? Would you recomend buying one and doing a turbo or should I keep my current car? If I did get a prelude it would be from '97 and up (keep that in mind). Thanks for the advice!

have you driven a 5G lude? i say get the lude. it's not like i biased or something since it's a prelude forum.

i like the lude's cockpit better than an accord.

or just convert to a 5spd and boost it.
