DEAFLUDE's 92' Prelude S "Bella" build thread

Post by deaflude » Wed May 11, 2016 5:22 am

Hi everyone!

I've been on this cool forum to buy some parts I needed for my bella. Ive decide to create a profile on this section. About me, My name is Alex. I am deaf. I own a 92' Prelude S model with JDM F22B and JDM h22 auto transmission. I created "deaflude" in all prelude forums because I, myself is deaf and I own a 92' Prelude so DEAFLUDE! A lot of people know me from other forums and I should build a thread on this site just in case if some of you aren't member on USA prelude forums. I have jobby load of pics from mid 2011 till now but Ill just post some pics in the past and post more pics of whats the current state of my prelude now. My bella is a weekend warrior and is a garage queen. I am in processing to do 5 speed swap and looking for JDM h22 black top. She is currently into broken suspension look mode but she will become functional mode in a year or so. Ive collected a lot of rare function parts for her. Here are the pics!

Just small update:


Function parts added in my function mode collection!

Rarest of rare progress sway bars front and rear 27mm with custom endlinks
Image


BNIB Samco radiator hoses for my mishimoto radiator!
Image


I bought used ksports coils to replace my Koni/GC for temporary because I bought new front koni from private unauthorized reseller so unfortunately the lifetime warranty is voided and I bought Ground Controls AKA GC coils used off second hand which is not count lifetime warranty. The only thing the count for lifetime warranty is I bought rear koni shocks straight from Koni so I sold the front Konis and GC coils so I can get front Konis and GC brand new straight from their factory in order to have lifetime warranty but for now Ill use ksports for awhile till I have enough money to buy front Koni/GC then Ill sell ksports coils
Image

Last Feb 17, my friends host a birthday party for me at Texas De Brazil (nice restaurant) and they got me this birthday cake! lol
Image



I picked up another rare nose mask bra BUT the hood bra is from USDM full mask bra. The fender pieces is CDM which is very rare. Ill be using them for highway trips and not touch my BNIB nose mask bra which is on top. I was offered $700 for top one but I denied the offer.
