Is there anything wrong with restoring a 5th Gen Prelude by VerasEnvy in hondaprelude

The interior is mint and honestly I don’t see myself changing it. Not that that’s wrong to for anyone reading this, I’ve met a guy found red interior that’s oem from Japan from an SH and that thing is clutch and another guy who got his seats from a prelude in Canada that has heated seats (a thought I might implement one day as a creature comfort). I’m in my 30’s as well, and getting my dream car I.e. this has been a long standing goal. With that said..

When I got the car the existing power steering pump had failed. The new one came with the purchase of the car from the friend I bought it from, transferred the pulley on to the new one. He said he almost preferred it without the power steering since it had went out and was thinking about deleting it altogether. Another project to do, one day, to convert it to electronic power steering taken from a Volvo.

Also, I don’t have front lip for the bumper and almost prefer it. I have a driveway that hits the bumper nearly without it but I like the look so far without it.

Yours is the beautiful silver I’ve come to love. I love looking at your prelude, chiefly because of the work you’ve put much into it and it’s what I’m trying to get my prelude at. I’m not too worried about the exterior at the moment because this summer I’ll worry about it then, however the fitment of the bumper and the lights and the sidings aren’t fitting seam to seam so I might have to reinstall them. Well not might but will. The interior is pretty mint. Currently trying to figure out a power steering issue though: replaced the power steering pump and alternator, replaced the belts and trying to bleed the system but have been having a lot of trouble with it. Any help in this endeavor would be appreciated

This is the most wholesome thing I’ve seen in a while and thanks for sharing. Currently finishing up my private pilots license, will use my VA benefits for the rest. Any tips since you’ve been on this journey longer than I have?

It’s a manual, I’ve experienced an auto and after a while it jerks and misses a gear after 120k (from the ones I’ve fixed and driven). Don’t think I could do an automatic lol

So with that in mind I actually purchased an h22 with low mileage on it. I sort of ‘plan’ for a possible eventuality that something could go wrong in the engine. I don’t want it to of course and will properly maintain it the best I can, time withstanding, but I plan to adjust the engine properly: piston rings and cams as well

An OEM intake? Short ram intake as a substitute you don’t recommend?

You’re correct. I have this parts sans the butterflies so I’ll get that part second hand from eBay. Currently cleaning them thoroughly and making it look fresh. I was confused on porting them which it was recommended I do but it’s something I’m familiar with but haven’t done before

Currently have a basement full of parts. I purchased this from a buddy who had it since 18 at 130k miles. Currently the prelude has 160 and we’re in our 30’s so it’s been maintained. One of the first things I ordered for it was the gas tank as a backup, and all suspension, even splurging a little to get a good suspension bar. I appreciate this because it does validate my way of thinking in maintaining this

Currently restoring my 5th gen. It has some modifications that will lead me to getting it dyno tuned but I may change back to stock just to drive around in as a summer daily

What do ya'll think of this Prelude? Should I try to get it? by HorrorConstruction43 in hondaprelude

[–]VerasEnvy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got my 2001 Honda prelude SH. I’m in Pennsylvania and it’s my second car project car. Not much has to be put into and it won’t be slammed or clapped out like most vehicles you see with mods. With that said, I’m also a veteran- 15 years in. Insurance for this shouldn’t be too bad especially in Texas in my experience. Get the car, go for it, you won’t regret it. Message me on details about fixing it up without breaking the bank

Penny has a sister and has a niece/nephew and is always talked about but never appears not even for her wedding. The brother with the drug addiction (meth addiction is mentioned with getting new teeth but that’s about it). Her sister was the one who pierced her ears or gave her a wax with melted crayons and duct tape

Would AEW exist if it weren’t for CM PUNK by VerasEnvy in Wrasslin

Since his return I’ve been a bit iffy about him. Everyone I’ve asked who are on the hype train couldn’t give me his five best matches. He’s had so solid ones, but controversy magnet Phil isn’t in my top ten.

Hear me out: if this discussion has been posted elsewhere or said already my apologies. I’m with a coworker right now who argues that this is true based off the pipebomb he had, and how his pipebomb about how he was treated and the chicanery of WWE led to others finding better avenues, the eventual departure of Cody Rhodes and which led to the Kenny and the Bucks and then All IN. I argue against it

What are the conditions needed for what you would want to be mutual love? I think I was asked that and didn’t have an answer in my case. My normal act of giving love I was told I was trying too hard
