TopPrelude's Ride

Post by TopPrelude » Thu Jul 11, 2013 5:46 pm

Many of you know me from PUK days.

My Prelude is a 1993 BB4 2.2 Vtec and I have owned it since the year 2000. Currently an auto but am toying with the idea of a manual conversion if i can find a cheap donor car that has an M2B4 LSD box. Otherwise she's staying as is for the time being. Also features the face lift upgrades such as EL speedo & center console.

Here are some pics:

All suspension components replaced, powder coated in Subaru gold and bushes switched to poly.

To do list:

Slight rust appearing on the arches...again :roll: Needs to be repaired 3rd time lucky!
Paint brake calipers bronze
Auto - Manual conversion (at some point)
HID lamp conversion (when i get the time)

That was a trip down memory lane indeed.

After all he spent on his 5th Gen he let it go for £1000. Criminal I know but it was a 5gen! :D
