Default Some pics of my Prelude...

I still need to get around to getting some quality pics of my Pilot, but since it isn't clean and the weather has been lousy for nearly a month, I'm posting some pictures of my other car instead for your viewing pleasure...






Some other pics are also in the HP.org gallery. Here's some vids too too (click the link)...

Very nice. Those wheels look very light. I put some 7-lb. Volks CE28Ns on my Mi ... er custom Ferrari.

Duh.... Now I see in a picture the Solo2 magnet.

I miss Autocrossing, used to run CSP in my Crxsi years ago.

There's a really nice black one near me ... but it's not for sale. If that changes, I'll let you know.

I actually have some newer magnets as the Solo2 magnet now just says "Solo" (SCCA recently dropped the "Solo2" moniker). Below is how it looks like in Solo Nationals trim back in September, with my wife driving.



I've been autocrossing for 6 years, and do lapping/HPDE's on occassion.

It's hard to find them used these days, at least in my area. I bought mine brand new 6 years ago. I originally wanted black or red...I don't regret getting it in Ficus Green Pearl.

Nope...on street trim, the wheels are 17x7 RH EVO CP-035s wrapped in Kumho MX's. In autocross/track trim, they're 15x7 Rota Slipstreams wrapped in Kumho Ecsta V710's (r-compounds).

Gotcha, thanks. The RH's looked like the Enkei RPF-1s is all. I did notice the R-comps too; never auto-xed, but have spectatated at several around here. Keep up the good work.

I'd like to get it to the limit of the SP rules. So far, this is what I've done to it:
AEM CAI
DC Sports SS header
Mugen exhaust
A'PEXi VAFC
AEM Tru-power pullies
UR crank pulley (not installed yet)
MSD plug wires
Denso Iridiums
OBD2 workaround
Spoon magnetic drain plugs (one for the tranny, the other for the oil pan)
Energy Suspension motor mounts
Hawker race battery (using custom battery tie down to mount)
ACT Heavy Duty Pressure Plate w/ Honda Prelude Street Disc clutch
Fidanza aluminum flywheel
Ground Control coilovers (600lbs front/600lbs rear)
Koni Sport Dual Adjustable struts-revalved
Spoon front and rear strut bars
Progress adjustable rear sway bar
Cobalt GT-Sport brake pads (front)
Hawk HP+ brake pads (rear)
Speedbleeders for clutch
Speedbleeders for brakes

I would like to install the UR pulleys (a/c, alternator, crank), have the intake manifold either modified or to buy something aftermarket (Skunk2 perhaps), and port-match it to the throttle body (it too would be modified). Removing the rear seats doesn't take much weight off, so probably replacing the front seats with racing seats will help too. I'm waiting until after the rules changes for 2007 are out before I can see what else is allowed.
