Lude Generation

Barn find...not!!
What do you think of this?
Can someone de-code the numbers?

Its a 5th gen JDM 2.2 SiR the same as mine.

Where is this? Its still got the satnav in.

From the looks of what you can see on the speedo it is an automatic.

Is the sat-nav worth having?

I'm pretty sure those number refer to the military base it was stored at, when it was used for target practice...

The sat-nav can't be made to work in the UK, but the system is worth taking out, yes, because the A/C system is controlled through the same screen and they ocassionally go wrong. Nitin is looking for a new screen (at a reasonable price) for his car, for example.

Looks like a 2.2 JDM SiR Auto..

Looking at the car's state I doubt the sat nav even turns on. But if you can get that screen out for me to have a look that would be great!


From the looks of it, you can still make use of the JDM cup holder, JDM bronze speedo rings.

I went with a friend to collect a car from a body shop, and the owner asked if I needed parts for my lude. I said yes and he took me to see this wreck, the only way you can tell it was a 5th gen Prelude was by looking at the dash.
I bought the complete sunroof, and all the A/C conditioning parts, ie., condenser, compressor, pipes the whole lot for €250!
The engine is still there with the auto gearbox. It has 136,000 km, on the clock, which is only 85,000 miles.
I think the engine is 200 hp, but, I'm not sure, it's a black top.
