:::TaylerP123::: 1998 Honda Prelude Base

[TaylerP123]

I purchased my baby on November 23rd 2005 and since then it hasn't left my sight for more than 48 hours. She is still a work in progress but I take care of her more than my... Well lets just I take care of her.

The Day I Got Her

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j103/Taylerp123/Prelude1.jpg

For the Interior, there is nothing much I really want to do. I am in the market for a red stiched leather shift knob and boot but other than that, I don't plan to modify it at all.
Interior:
- Painted San Marino Red Gauge Bezels.

I am going for a stockish 1997-2001 Honda Prelude Type S look for the Exterior. What I really need to find is a JDM Type S lip kit.
Exterior:
- Clear Corners.
- 35% Tint (Back Three Windows).
- JDM Fogs.

I need my Engine to get good gas mileage so I am not planning much for power adders. Once I open up my air flow that should be good. My most recent Dyno Run shows I am getting 159 HP at 7400 rpms and 127 Ft-Lbs at 5800 rpms on a Mustang Dynamometer.
Engine:
- AEM V2 Intake.
- GReddy EVO2 Exhaust.
- NGK Platinum Spark Plugs.
- MSD 8.5mm Wires.

As for my Suspension, I put on lowering springs and she is now sitting about two inches lower than stock. I plan to swap everything out and get a set of coilovers.
Suspension:
- Eibach Pro-Kit.

My In Car Electronics is all about sound. There is not much flash involved. It is a fully digital set up starting from my iPod then going to my head unit which sends the signal to my digital amp and it comes out my speakers. I picked the goods that would sound the best.
In Car Electronics:
- Alpine IVA-D300 - Head Unit.
- Alpine KCA-420i - iPod Adapter.
- Alpine MRD-F345 - Four Channel Amplifier.
- Alpine SPR-17LS - Front Speakers.
- Alpine SPR-69LP - Rear Speakers.
- Scosche EFX Amplifier Wires.

The Miscellanios modifications I have done are just for sex appeal and driving quality. They are cheap, do it your self modifications that I do not have much to say about.
Miscellanios:
- DC Sports Short Shift Adaptor.
- 5th Gen. Honeycomb Grille.
- Removed Mud Flaps.

Realisticly, these are the only Future Modifications I am going to do. I could go on and on with things I want to do, but, most of them would never happen.
Future Modifications:
- Red Stiched Leather Shift Knob.
- Red Stiched Leather Shift Boot.
- High Flow Cat.
- Coilovers.
- Header.
- JDM Type S Lip Kit.
- New Paint In San Marino Red.
- 2001 S2000 Wheels.

You must like Alpine. :p Yet, another sexy Lude. Nice job!

My Alpine headunit gets WAY too hot... I don't know how my cds don't get damaged. I take it out after 5 minutes and it burns my hand.

I changed my engine bay picture to something more recent and added a picture of my new exhaust. "So what my camera sucks wanna fight about it?" - Family Guy.

Yeah like what Prelude13 said I only trust Alpine. That, and I am under the misconception that audio components of the same brand work better together.

Thanks man. San Marino Red wasn't my first choice to be honest. I wanted Night Hawk Black but I don't regret it now. It stands out more then a black one would with the same mods. I like catching people looking over at stop lights even when I don't have much done.

HONEYCOMB GRILLE PICTURES TO COME SOON!!!

Nice ride.

[Brash22]

Nice mate, similar to mine. What's the colour code?

And as for Alpine, I can't commend their gear highly enough, especially the source units and amplifiers.

I've only recently traded up from my Alpine speakers to some real high quality European gear but still hold Alpine with high regard.

But once again, very nice car.

[astrophillio]

if youre gona get the jdm type-s front lip are you going to paint your sides to match your car?

[TaylerP123]

Well I got an update for you guys. Since my last post I have upgraded to a Alpine IVA-D300 headunit and installed a pair of JDM fog lights whoop whoop. I guess I could also add that I am rolling on a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi because it is winter. Best winter tires in the buisness...

I am going away for the summer and it is costing me $5000 and I won't be working that whole time so as for now the mods are done until I start working again.
