I've bought another Honda

[vtec.]

I've recently purchased a Prelude VTIR previously known as "Mig03n"

I've owned various cars in the past including:
Integra GSI, Integra DC5, Integra VTIR, Mazda MX5 NA and 2 Ford Probes.

At this stage the car is showing signs of age and has just hit 300,000kms - so my aim is to restore Migoreng. I have started by replacing the steering wheel with a genuine replacement [due to worn leather] and I have changed the oil and filter. I will be looking at restoring the body and interior while keeping the car serviced regularly for now. Later I may need to look at working on or replacing the engine due to its age - but for now it seems to be ok.

The main parts to be restored are:
* Steering wheel [worn leather] - DONE
* Front seat- worn leather [replacement or re-upholstery]
* Panels- some small dents/chips & faded paint. Bonnet is quite heavy, may consider an aftermarket option.

The only other mods I'm considering doing at the moment are:
* New wheels -DONE
* Extractors
* CAI? maybe... [currently Type S intake at the moment]

ahh so you bought it!

It's very clean, look after it well :)

Jason spent a very long time tracking down type S parts and building a replica if you like, that intake is worth it's weight in gold, and will outperform a lot of the CAI's (have a search around)

Also note the engine is not at 300000.

There is a progress therad on preludeaustralia, i suggest you take a look around before spending money on things that aren't necessary

All the best

Hey Curtis, don't worry Im taking care of it. :) I'd seen a bunch of Jason's pictures last year so when he listed it for sale again I couldnt resist this time.
Do you happen to know how many kms are on the engine?

[RenzokukenJ]

I think Jason put the amount in his progress thread somewhere in PA

Cant believe someone bought this car though, so many parts on there from the Type S that I want.

I have the parts that he doesnt have though mwahahahaha

Thanks guys :D
yeah I like the way Jason presented the car with a clean look and type S mods. Love the spoiler!

[manolii]

It was a very clean car and well known on PA, if you dont want the type s intake there will be a number of people interested :P

[vtec.]

New wheels! I think these look clean and suit the car. Also the migoreng packet has been replaced ;)

[RenzokukenJ]

Im sure Jason will enjoy to see the progression of his old car.

Hes a member on here as well, Im sure he will pipe up soon.

Good, i woulda thought it's expired by now

[vtec.]

Lol I replaced with a angry piggie.

[RenzokukenJ]

Lol I replaced with a angry piggie.

did you atleast eat it?

[vtec.]

Jason kept the migoreng. Maybe he ate it? lol

[migoreng]

Hey man. Nice. I'll keep an eye on your progress :D no I did not eat the migoreng. :) The bag is simply filled with some cardboard/metal...it will be hung on my next car...

[vtec.]

Cheers. The migoreng packet is a very creative idea, I might try and think of something unique like that to add to the car..
