Today i bought my first Prelude. A 00' 5th gen 2.2 VTi manual in black. Having worked for Honda previously for 10 years i worked with these when they were new. Always liked them but got swayed by Civic Type R's firstly. I done a straight swap for my Subaru Legacy GTB so a bit of a drop in power but VTEC is too hard to resist.
First thing to be done will be a full service including all oils, fluids and timing belt. Thankfully i work for a motor factors now so won't be too sore on the pocket. Oh and a good clean as it was more than a bit dirty.
The only issue i have with it is a scab of rust on the 1/4 panel but is nothing serious and the rubbers on the inner rear arches were removed as soon as i had the keys.
Hope to meet some new people here and buy some parts.
Chris
