Honda Prelude UK

Hyabusa Hunter

well its time to say good bye to the old girl. Mother nature got the best of her.... Crying or Very sad

i think most of you on here know what im lude was like. Here is the damage...

so this has left me no choice BUT TO BUILD A FASTER LIGHTER STRONGER ONE Cool

Plans are to break into the 10 sec mark on street tyres (barely street legal might i add)
-pushing in excess of 800whp
-still retaining the 2.2 bore and stroke.
-weighing in at under 1000kgs (with fuel)
-seam welded chassis
-tubular front end
-some other secret stuff Rolling Eyes

THE DONER:
I found a mint JDM H22A Auto (no rust on the arches at all Very Happy

and no rust repair work carried out either)

Let the strip down begin:

the whole car will be treated to an anti rust/ rust prevention plan.....9what ever that is Confused

more pics to come....

Good luck, glad to see you're not throwing in the towel.

A load of people are gonna groan at me, but i'm gonna recommend Bilt Hamber for your rust prevention and treatment needs.

10's will be interesting, will also be the quickest FWD road legal car in the country. Behind a certain tigra running 11.3 i think the best time was.

10's on road tyres will be fu@£ing hard mate.

But good luck.... by the way i hope your planning to use normal fuel otherwise its just cheating Very Happy

Sorry should have phrased that better. Im just always a beliver that RWUB is all about driving the car daily for fun work whatever then taking it to the strip and kicking its head in all day.

If you cant do that and run consitent times at the track then its not really RWUB.

But anyway its irelevant, that will be one incredible build, i really hope it works out mate. Will be frightenging Very Happy
