and thats it tell me wat you all think

[HERBERT]

i cant believe you got that boot at the junk yard

[danny nr crew]

yup i couldnt believe it either i was just looking inside a prelude and i saw that and didnt hesitate to take it

[HERBERT]

nice work man

[danny nr crew]

thanks man im just lucky i saw it first cause my friend is in love with preludes and he is always checking them out he just missed this thing. he was pissed when i told him i found it lol

[HERBERT]

where are the rims that were in the first picture

[danny nr crew]

i got them in my room. they have crappy traction and i just dont want them in all the snow and salt so i got the two rims in front for 20 bucks

[Dr_Snooz]

I can't believe you got a working motor from the junkyard. :jaw:

Welcome back!

[danny nr crew]

cool thing is that this isnt just some random junkyard these guys actually run and test the motors before they yank them out of the cars. i got really lucky on this motor thow because they were about to scrap it. it was literally a day away from being crushed and thats why it was so cheap as well

[rustlude87]

Please take off that TireRack sticker... PLEASE!!!! And was this the new motor on your way back to lincoln that one time?

[danny nr crew]

come on i like that sticker i got it at the autocross. dont worry thow it will probably scrap off during winter anyways. but no that wasnt the same motor i changed it like a month later. the other one was horrible i hated it. it had oil in places i didnt think oil could get to.

[rustlude87]

You need a prelude Si transmission bad!

[2oodoor]

you need 15 inch steelies for winter! saturn ion fits perfect
You fixed the odometer or you found one in the junkyard like that? Im wonderng if mine was set back like that cuz some of the car seems like 85K some of it seems more like 185K:hs:
Did you have extra parts left over, looks un cluttered a bit up top. I like it.

[danny nr crew]

yea i have always been wondering if the prelude tranny made a difference. what exactly changes?? just the gear ratios right.

and yea i took off the power steering and ac. but im putting the ac back this summer.

Well did you see how hard mine pulled so yes it does. lol

[danny nr crew]

well damn i might just have to get one but i do like my low revs on the highway. o yea and by the way i have the dx tranny not the lxi. i swapped them out

[Rendon LX-i]

do the teg/accord hybrid. youll see some pulling power lol. I yet have to do that to my hatch. I have the parts just been to lazy.

As are dime a dozen these days. I got mine from a sei sat for years . put some tranny fuild in the pistons turned it by hand and it was all good. Old skool trick.

so take apart the block and head and put some tranny fluid on the pistons and turn by hand. that will fix them?????
