Hey all !

[Prelude_chic92]

Hi everyone, just signed up and thought I would say hello.

I own a white 92 Honda Prelude which is currently undergoing a major reconstruction :p

I'm a 22 yo female who LOVES cars and everything that goes with it!

The last time I saw my car it was stock apart from 17" Starcorp wheels, window tint, air intake system and aftermarket stezza setup.

It is currently in Sydney having a nice big snail (T30) attached to a newer
F22a engine with custom rods, new clutch, custom exhaust manifold and many more new parts. Can't wait to get my baby back!

Anyways, just saying hi and hopefully will get to know some of you a bit better over time.


Cheers

- Jess

Welcome.

good to see some tassie people on the forums !!

[Prelude_chic92]

Have been meaning to sign up here for a while now, but only remembered about it today lol

[80057]

welcome,

sounds like your car will have some go after the mods,

good luck with the car..

how long before you get her back?

[Prelude_chic92]

I drove her to Sydney on 25 October 06, hopefully should have her back by the end of January 07.

Mechanic is expecting somewhere between 200-250kws at the wheels

[80057]

i have driven a civic with a 2.3litre and a smallish jackson super charger, supossingly had 220 at the wheels, it was hairy to say the least, crazy to control at full go, that was when i was a rear wheel drive man, so maybe i just wasnt used to the fwd

nice numbers tho, are you changing the tranny, clutch brakes etc.? reckon the stockers will hold up i know honda is realible thats its a massive step in power.

[Prelude_chic92]

The brakes will be upgraded when it gets back to Tassie. The ones I have would be fine, but the way I drive I would prefer bigger ones lol

Everything that's needs to be upgraded is, apart from suspension and drive shaft, as the stock ones are fine, until I take it down the strip, then they will be upgraded too.

My new nick name down here is Torque Steer lmfao

[80057]

lol, and torque steer u will be doing,

good luck and let us know how she goes when you get it back...

[Prelude_chic92]

Will do, I'll post up some pics in my gallery too, hopefully will have the new front bar on by then

[[[d a n n y]]]

Welcome!!!!
sounds like u got a little nut of a car there :D
post pics up when u get her back

[incoming]

geez you've done more mods then most guys on this forum lol

welcome!!

[Prelude_chic92]

and plenty more to come, couldn't decide on whether I wanted my car for show or go, so I decided to do both. I'll finish off the GO before i start the SHOW tho lol

[incoming]

I'll finish off the GO before i start the SHOW tho lol

good stuff!! i feel into the trap of show before go once... :o

[Prelude_chic92]

Yer I started on the outside, have had a new front bar sitting in my loungeroom for ages now, but am thinking I might like the sleeper look with the standard front bar on there for a while.

Also I want to get the car fully resprayed, maybe a white with a blue pearl, so hoping to get the new front bar and the rest of the car done at the same time.

[incoming]

post some pics of ur car!!

[80057]

go is always good, i like a good looking car, but i see to many stock slugs with big wheels exhausts and rear wings, and they annoy me, i am a fan of a sleeper, but like a good look, nothing over the top tho.

[Prelude_chic92]

Don't have any pics on the computer at work where I am now, also don't have any since the new engine and turbo setup has taken place, as the car is still sitting in Sydney waiting for the conrods to arrive.

I'll get some pics together tonight when I get home, tho the car is basically stock on the outside, nothin special, yet!

[incoming]

talk about dedication
ur from tassie and the cars in syd getting built

[Prelude_chic92]

Sure is, I know some people who know some people who built a certain red CRX that runs at the drags.....*winks* lol

I wanted to make sure it was done properly, so I took it to the people who I believe are the best, if it's going to be done, it's going to be done properly the first time

[incoming]

online performance?

[Prelude_chic92]

Yup Online Performance. I was chatting to Dave from there at Jamboree and another guy I know knows him really well, had his car done there also.

Plus, there isn't really anywhere in Tassie that has that much experience working with Honda engines, so it would be an experiment. It's costing too much to be an experiment lol

[Xplodin]

WEll well welcome to the OH forums.... WHen u drive her back to tas. make sure u stop by melb for a bit of show n tell :D

heheh Enjoy ur stay here and remember the search button :D

[Prelude_chic92]

Here's hopin I make it to Melb from Sydney in one piece.......lol

[panda[cRx]]

online are doin a k20 gen2 crx atm too for a guy in melb, not sure what the eta is on that one.

anyway the car sounds nice, i'm lookin forward to seeing it (strange for me to be saying that about a prelude)

[Jarkz]

WeLcOmE......... Agree with others, get some pic's up when you get her up and going.

[Prelude_chic92]

Yup pics will be up for sure when I get her back

[defect]

sounds like a beast, where is your car getting built at?

[Prelude_chic92]

Online Performance, friend of a friend lol

[bevis90]

did u have to source all the parts or they had it all there
oh btw welcome to OH forum

[Prelude_chic92]

They did everything, all I had to do was tell them my budget and take the car over to them, they sent me a list of parts and prices with a quote, and I told them to go for it.

I haven't seen the car since I dropped it off on 25 October, can't wait to feast my eyes on the beast under the bonnet lol
