Hi guys, is you can see I’m a new member here but this is because I have been away from the scene for a while as I have been in oz. When I was about I was part of all the forums on ludebehaviour I have over 670 posts as you can see over there if you are a member.
Anyway the time has come. My baby needs to go. However the engine went. to my knowledge the oil pump failed and done bottom end damage. The car still starts and turns over. Just knocks at the bottom end. I have been told it’s easier to re-engine it as I am clueless when it comes to engines. I don't really have the time or £££ to get this done just now as I’m away back to oz as soon as i tie up all my loose ends here. However i have a New Engine for it also
spec its a H22A5 engine i was going to put in it. So it is sitting there that can be included in the sale. It as 100'ish k on it. is still in the donor car but will be out soon the clocks for the donor car are there are wanted. Only problem with the engine is the clutch failed. But in the engine in the car for sale the clutch was just done and only covered 2'ish k at the most.
The car has no tax or mot now as it’s been off the road.
The shell has bout 86k on it. (Would need to double check for exact mileage)
The car has been my baby for the last 2 years no expense spared as the pics below will show. This car is a one off. To my knowledge there is no other car in the UK like this. It had a full NSX blue respray. The wheels are not available in the uk they are only made and sold in Japan. They are last time i checked over £200 per wheel without tyres or delivery if you can find them. Very good quality rare rims.
I know the RULES on forums usually state that no offers posts can be asked for so have no idea will say 2k or offers. Seriously people this car is mint. Anyone who has seen it will agree. If someone has the knowledge to fix this will be a great car. Recently has had a new clutch & battery. has all the service kit there for it happy to give that away with the sale as well as all the OEM parts including bonnet in nsx blue etc. . .
Bad Bits,
Needs engine fixed,
fog lights not wired in,
think that is about it.
Here is the spec;
1998 HONDA PRELUDE 2.2 VTI
Standard options
4 wheel steer
Electric windows, mirrors & sunroof
Air conditioning
Cruise control
Exterior
Full NSX Blue Respray
Seibon carbon fiber bonnet (slight damage most people wouldn’t notice, repaired pics available)
Motegi front lip
Jap front plate and tilt bracket
Spoiler removed & holes filled and Delocked boot
Datum1 rear tow hook
Honeycomb Front gill.

Bridgestone BEO (import only) 17” alloys
Pi 35mm Lowering springs
Front upper strut brace
And now the pics.

















If people think this is to expensive I understand. But with the work that's went into the car and the parts that are on it. I thought that was what realistic a good starting point I am happy to take offers via PM for the car as is, for car as is + new engine or i may look to break it. If I’m breaking nothing is coming off until I get enough of it sold to merit doing it i.e as much as I’d need for the car. I can’t stress enough how much work and money has went into this car and would be easily put back on the road. (I just don't have the time)
If it breaks here is some rough prices but I’m open to offers, have been out the scene for a little while so some prices may be a little out. I’ve been in oz the last year so back home to clear up a bit
JDM import alloys with tyres (but all low and need replaced) - £400
Carbon bonnet. (a tiny little bit of damage at one corner u will never notice have pics) - £250
skunk2 megaflow exhaust system. (cat back) - £250
Honeycomb grill - £50
Struts with pi lowering spring on them - £100
282 mm (from memory) from brakes with disks, pads, Blue calipers painted & carriers - £250
Rear disks, pads blue calipers and carriers (sell with or without the fronts) - £150
De-locked an smoothed boot (nsx blue) - £40
H22A engine (with damage see add) minus rocker cover - £100
H22a5 (i think see add) working. - £300
All other parts available inc. a full other prelude I have to break in silver please see cars breaking section of more info on that.
I live in Scotland about an hour from Glasgow. viewings are available.
