It seems like there are no honda fans, just "civic" fans. The car is dope and that swap is completely different from the usual k20 in a hatch. Go for it then boost it

My *** you could make a faster 5cylinder. Those prices were stupid expensive. Hell even after the 550 price I got from the driveshaftshop to make the axles I'd probably still be cheaper. 600 for a set of rods. Sheeet I could get rods and pistons for almost that much. Eagle's can be bought for 300 and some Wiesco's are 400. Along with everything else. Take that RKautotechnik ---- and that wackass 5 cylinder and shove it up your *** sideways.

i'll bother putting a k in my prelude because when was the last time you saw one? aside from the pictures above. h22 are basically stock in all ludes nowadays. they're cool and all, but i want something more original.

joo know?


def original but untill you throw some dollars at the K (beside the swap) IMO it isnt making enough power over the H to make it worth while, but the trans is def a big improvment over the H

maybe you suck the ****. everyone knows this is a turbo site with an abundance of cars, mostly filled with civics. If something that is a honda and not a civic or crx, people say its a waste blah blah. Its really not that big of a deal, i was just saying.

Um. Not really. Were saying its a waste because it doesnt have any HUGE advantages over a H series. It also has a huge disadvantage being the cost. I guess doing it for the 'wow' factor, but 99% of us here say ---- the wow factor, we just wanna go fast for the cheapest price possible. And we welcome any turbo car, no matter what it is. Or any car aslong as its fast or the person has ambitions to make it fast ( granted they must post ****). Look at some of the hackjob turbo setups on here that aren't hondas. Everyone loves ghettoness, no matter what car it is on. So my point being, Going fast for cheap > going slow for expensive + wow factor.

Im not disagreeing with the point of the website, or saying that there arent other turbo cars other than hondas. I was just saying that whenever something other than a honda civic is brought up, people say its a waste of time and a sucky car. And as far as the point of the thread, yeah its going to cost alot of money and you could go way faster for way cheaper, i just thought it would be cool because ive never seen a k20 in a prelude before . im all for cheap speed though
