Newbie with 3G project on the go....

Post by Metalhead » Mon Jan 02, 2017 10:09 pm

Hello.

I've posted a few times already but thought I'd add a few details and my 'lude credentials' ;-)

I'm Phil (apparently there's an MX5 named after me!) and I've been playing with Honda's for around 25 years. Owned nearly every model over the years and have a soft spot for 3Gs with 4WS as I owned one back in the early 90's when it was a current model. I co-founded a club called 'Honda-R' which became Honda Revolutions in the early 2000s and have written for many car mags and for Honda themselves (inc. BTCC writing duties for 2006-07).

Old Preludes (I've owned 2G, 3G and 4G and driven 1G and 5G extensively!)

Current 'daily' is a CR-Z and I'm restoring a 1990 2.0i 4WS SE (manual) in Hampshire Green... might even be the last manual SE in the this colour in the UK?

Resto pics are here...

Will hopefully have the car finished in around 12 months - full strip down and rebuild is on the cards. Looking forward to getting the car to shows and meets in the future!

Cheers and Happy New Year!

~Phil.

Typical car meet pic in the middle. All the Scoobies huddled together for mutual warmth and the NSX says "I can park anywhere and you'll still look at me!"

I joined Honda revs just before it about shut down.

And hyper revs the old Prelude Forum back in the Prelude UK days.


Great Honda's there.

The 3rd gen still is my most favourite fun car to daily drive with much 4ws. I miss mine.
