Welcome.. :)

That looks like a very good example fair play, low k's aswell.
Same model as mine but a year older and was imported in the same year as mine too!
A lot cleaner though :lol:

Looks great and unmolested.
Good job on the buffing,i'm in the same boat with cleaning my other one too,i had blisters and watery eyes from all the dry wax :lol: worth it though when those results speak for themselves.
You a bit of a D.I.Y mechanic then?

Thanks again guys,

JEBB4 - I looked at your lude profile and I loved reading it.
Looks fantastic in the black.

GREGG SIR - yeah the buffing is worth the blood sweat and tears :lol: I noticed you bought a good prelude recently too,I ll be keen to see how you get on with it.looks a great base.yeah I try to do everything myself and anything I can't do I ll just learn how to do it on the Internet,plenty on guides on this forum too.I have worked on Hondas for years so it's a good learning curve when something needs to be replaced.

Looks great 8-) Sorting the rust now (before it gets bad) and then getting inside the arches with a good rust sealer wax will be the best option of keeping it good.

If that's only when cold/during warm up and it then settles down ok when fully up to temp, that's your coolant temp sensor.

Yeah Nick kindly gave me some rear light seals so I ll inspect the old ones to make sure there not leaking.I know the arches to be kept mint so I will prioritise this job.The preludes idling is funny,It dosnt feel like its high so am kinda thinking my revs dials are out.

Re: White BB4 JDM 2WS UPDATE-undersealing/cleaning

Post by lewie fraser » Wed Feb 03, 2016 6:32 pm

I had missing inner wheel arch trim so I guessed the inside of my arch was not going to be good.Looks like it has been missing for some time as it had a massive build up of dirt and it was even starting to rust a little.

After a removed the wing and the suspension I gave it a good clean.painted the forks,track rod end and underseal.every nut and bolt that came off the car was painted in oem silver and copper greased aswell.I will be painting the brake caliper back to factory silver too but that can wait till tomorrow.
