270bhp NA JDM 4G for sale

Post by **SPYDOR** » Sun Oct 13, 2013 3:08 pm

Just found this for sale on PistonHeads: 270bhp 4G on PistonHeads

Big asking price but great spec and massive power for a naturally aspirated engine, he based it on the JUN modified Prelude apparently. 190 ft/lbs or torque as well!! Bet it pulls like a train.

Sounds like an awesome machine, but will anyone want to pay 8 grand for it!!!

Impressive spec, but yep, I can't imagine anyone paying anywhere near £8k for it unfortunately. Just can't get that much for a lude

2 questions though: firstly how do ludes like this keep turning up and no-one on here know nothing about them? Secondly why spend £30k on a car only to sell it less than a year later? (I'm assuming it's not going because of money problems)

Yeah, I would expect people to go for a turbocharged Prelude if they wanted more power and had the money to spend, unless they are a very strict NA fan.

Surprised it wasn't on here as I had a good search through before posting. He does say he bought it in 2009 with the aim of modifying it to be like the famous JUN modified Prelude, as shown in this video:

I'm sure that car had been for sale for a while, and I'm sure I saw somebody comment on the advert on here before?

Been post up here before for the same reasons. The asking price was about £2000 more that time though.

its not that much of an extensive spec for that amount of money there will be a long wait for a buyer for it unfortunatly

Very nice, but as said.... he's realistically going to get £5000 tops for it.
