Ok guys.

So I've been in Civics for the last few years and now Ive bought a Prelude VTI.

Just wanna know, what sort of mods are good and what sorta probs should I be looking out for?

Welcome Steve,

Nice to see someone moving on from civic's - that's a rare thing! :)

Quite a few brand new 5th gen'ers joined over the last week or so.

Welcome to LG!!

Initial mods I would go for are suspension, brakes, lip kit ;)

so it is a manual now? good choice 8-)

Manifold, zhorst and intake (type S OEM imo) and coilovers.

after that it depends on the condition of the car generally.


Rear calipers stick over time. cam bung leaks. um....

Title says tiptronic, so I'd guess it's automatic, as that's what Steve said he was looking at yesterday!

Yeah, i was just kinda hoping that when he said the box had been changed that it had been changed to a real gearbox :lol: :? :P
