prelude in my future

[mondojackal]

Sorry I faovor the 4thgen the most the 5thgen looks to linear. The 4thgen is just right for me

yes, i agree...the 5th gen's headlights are just too boxy for a newer vehicle...don't like them...

From what I remember about my friends' Preludes is that it had the A20 in it

the second gen 2.0Si had an A20 in it

[Final 204]

i can't hack pop up headlights anymore, way to 80's

that car has the whole 5th gen lip, kit on it, buddy of mines looks similar to that one

i wanted a 4th gen but $ is a concern. the 3rd gen grew on me, i couldn't stand it a couple years ago but now i think its sexy.

that pic of the lude is hot. are you going to be modding it or is it a daily driver

i plan on modding it but not right away. it'd have some shoes, drop, and a light tint for the summer. i'm not really sure what i'd do with it just yet, seeing as this was a spur of the moment thing.

i love them, theres a white 90 Si at my friends shop with no rust that i can see, im finding ways to save up the money to grab it. broken timing belt so itll be cheap... its automatic, but that doesnt matter once i get my hands on it

just so u all know, yes thats a full 5g accord lip set, very very common for the 3g luder's... would be one of the first appearance things i do when i get one. gotta love the stock red/clear tails...

its got the B20 in it like you said, its OBD1... years ago Place Racing (PRI) produced mounts to bolt in an H22, but have since gone out of business and the mounts are not available anywhere at all... if scoured every lude forum and website, nothing and no information or measurements.

if i finally get this lude, first thing i would do is weld up mounts to stick an F22 in. that would turn into my boost project...

these 3g's grow on you, its strange... couple years ago my friend had a blue 88, i hated the crap out of it, i thought it was hideous... now look at me, loving em (well, only the 9091s... cant stand the 8889 tails...)

tell me this doesnt make you pee your pants:

my cousin had a red 90si and was planning on putting an h22a4 in it . . . i have no clue what ever happened to it . . . doubt it got finished though

mike, you can't leave us hanging like that. Is there a swap kit for them? Or is that all custom?

The funny thing is, the whole time I read this thread I was like 'meh I'd only get one in the possibility of being able to swap an F/H into it...' Oddly enough, in my experiences, the only people with 3rd gens were lesbian gym teachers or really, really, really old ladies. I know one guy with a 3rd gen, but he doesn't know anything about it...he just threw a muffler on it and said 'fin!'

thats why i want one. they're not in abundance in the tuner scene. not to say that the CB is.
and the guy that had it before passed away a few months ago so it has been in storage. his daughter just wants to get rid of it. surprised me that it was a 5 speed.

its a place racing swap kit, but its not produced anymore since they went out of business

there were only two things that were available to assist people swapping an H22 into their 3g lude... PRI made the mounts, and also let you send them your two wiring harnesses and they would splice them as needed and reloom (for a price, of course)... over time the template went off, and all the mounts were welded 1/2" inch off... then soon after they went out of business... so basically, there is no assistance at all. if you know how to weld, getting the engine lined up in the engine bay is easy, then just measure and weld up brackets to hold it in. you can use 4th gen accord axles on both sides, with 4g accord/lude shifter and linkage custom mounted. not as straightforward as H22 -> 4g accord, but still pretty easy compared to other custom swaps out there. check out these guides for more information: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1165546 and http://www.teaminterlude.com/3rdgenh22swap.asp
