Fefelarue's 3rd gen Honda Prelude

[hi its me alec]

Exhaust looks better, but I still don't think it looks good. FWIW my coworker has a black 3rd gen with dual 2.5" tips and it's absolutely perfect. Looks so badass, tucks nicely into the rear bumper, and all that jazz.

The fart can is just out of place on a classic car like yours, especially if it's not packing a gigantic turbo or something. At the pace your project is moving, that exhaust will look out of place for decades. Not knocking your style or anything, just have to throw my opinion out there. It's a nice classic car in mint condition, if you were my friend I wouldn't have let you do that!

Seriously awesome prelude. Love what you've done with it, very clean very classy. Can't wait for low and wheels, so sub'd

Cheers

I'm saving up for these:



But my money keeps going on useless shit like food and rent..

This thing is so clean, and the exhaust isn't my test but I love the rest of it. Can't wait to see this thing lowered.

Hey folks,

Firstly, I apologise for still not slamming the car But here's where I'm up to now...

First up was to relocate the battery to the boot. Bought myself some hench 0 gauge cable and got the seats out.


Took off the induction kit and laid the cable in the right place:


Through the car and into the boot:


Also took out the spare wheel for now for more subwoofer space:


Then that allowed me to get a new piece of hose to relocate the air filter like so:


The battery's just tied in the boot at the moment, but I'm going to get on with a boot build once I get my subwoofer(s)


Then after a few instances of overheating on the hot days when stuck in traffic, I figured I could do with a new radiator. I took the old one out and it's, well, fucked.


Then I ordered a nice shiny new one from Coolex in Nottingham who I highly recommend:


While I had the radiator off, I thought I may as well do something to the hoses, and since I couldn't find any silicone ones, I decided to braid them.
Before:


After:


New radiator in:


Current state of engine bay:

Still very messy..

Then it was time to paint the wiper blades.

Here's what they looked like before, very worn:



Painted them up in satin black, complete with flat blades, looks much better I think.



Then adjusted the sit of the exhaust AGAIN, gave her a clean and got a few pics:













Thanks for looking!

Like has been said, that fart can is just out of place on an otherwise clean, stock car. I understand being broke but that just means saving what little bit of money you get for worthwhile mods. I'd like to see where this goes.

pics of the trunk?

[fefelarue]

Haha, the boot is huge but shallow, I can fit two people in there. But I might have to swap the spare wheel for a can of tyreweld to get some added depth. Or i might just go for a 15"

[edzyy]

Curious to see how you're gonna fit an 18 inch sub in there

[fefelarue]

A chain safely attached to my exhaust rubbers until my uni workshop re-opens and i can weld a hanger on.

Plus the chain is badass.

[Nagah]

Seriously? A chain?
