This is the best angle of the prelude. No roof and OEM alloys make it look very pretty.

This has been the main work of the last month. My old work mate's Supra. We're thinking rhe bottom end's gone so he's sending the engine away for restoration. He wants more power out of it.. it's already bloody fast

Well I've resolved my SRS issue, at the cost of my airbags


but massive note to self, look up steering wheel bolt torque specs before guessing!

Another 90 quid later...

Can't believe how much quicker the steering reaction is with a smaller steering wheel
