UPDATED LAST ON 18 MARCH 2004
I am an american GI Stationed in England I AM NOT BRITISH.
I have been working on this Car for a year now. I bought it right after my return from the desert last year.
It will be out on the track this year in the 2050CC - 2550CC non-aspirated Class. But hopefully not for long I am loking at at Turbonetics T3/T4 Turbo that claims a 70% HP increase at the Wheel. This is a TRUE JDM Prelude with the 2.2 VTEC rated at 220HP Stock. The american and british version are at 190HP.
I am not to worried about looks, This car is built to be a sleeper. I want it to look different than other preludes but that is about it.
********************************************** EXTERIOR -- INTERIOR ************
****************************************
I have done a few mods to the exterior. Because it is a JDM it already has the one piece corner headlamps. But I did put in the clear indicators. I also installed the Altezza Rear Lights. I opted for the Carbon-Fiber do to the color of the car.
I also went with new Wheels and Tires. League GT-R 17" with Avon ZZ3 205/40
On the inside I have done little as well. New Gearshift knob Type-R Neon. New Gershift Boot. Rockford MP3 Deck (bottom of the line).
******************************************************PERFORMANCE*******************************************************
I started with the Intake and Throttle Body. I have an AEM Competition Racing Division Cold Air intake. I put a HELIX POWER TOWER Throttle Body Spacer (1") on as well. Morosso 8.5MM Plug wires with DENSO Iridium Power Plugs. MUGEN Remapped ECU with Fuel Cutoff at 160MPH and VTEC engagment@5000RPM.
Then I put on the Arospeed Stainless Headers on withe a TSUDO Stainless DE-CAT Exhaust on (legal in UK before 93).
********************************************************** ICE **********************************************************
I have a Rockford POWER HX2 12" Dual 2OHM VC. 2000 WATT MAX And 1000 WATT RMS. It is powered by a KICKER KX1200.1 Mono Block 1200 RMS x 1 @ 1OHM. I think my box is to small because it makes that thwapping sound. All cables are Stinger.
That is all I have for now.
********************************************************** FUTURE MODS ***********************************************************
1. New box for sub or I am switching too two Kicker L7 10" Subs (I think the amp will like those better).
2. NEW BRAKES Brembo Rotors or AEM BIG BRAKE KIT.
3. TURBO TURBO TURBO
4. Window TINT
5. Engine Dress up
I am looking for sponsors and any one who knows where I can get good deals.
Thanks again,
