Hello! I have a 1999 Honda Prelude base model with the 2.2 liter H22 a4. I have the automatic transmission. I would very much like to put a turbo in my car, but I need to know how much torque the stock transmission* can handle if it’s built. I already know there’s more to it than that, I just...

I’m new to the whole car world. Never did a build and I’ve been looking at a 88 prelude by my home all stock SI. Need help on knowing where to start when learning about tuning.

My name is Daniel, and I am a mechanic of 20 years specializing in Honda. I have driven all types of Hondas but my favorite Honda has got to be the 5th Gen Prelude - They are just fun to drive and do almost everything well. A couple years ago I found a mechanic special and against my wife's...

This will be a slow build but I've done a lot to my 1989 Prelude. One reason why Prelude is not only my 1st model car but also I bought this when my grandma died. Every time I'm inside the car I always remember her and feel same. But above all the reason I enjoy driving the car so I decided to...

I have a 92 prelude S and I absolutely love the car, except it's obvious that the engine is getting a little tired. By the end of the summer I want to either rebuild it or replace it. My end goal for the car is to throw a turbo on it, since I absolutely love the prelude platform and would swap...

Hey guys. So I haven't posted on here for a while due to school and the Lude being in storage, but now that I'm finished it's time to get back into Luding. for those who don't know I own a 1990 Honda Prelude SR (I swapped in 4WS) with the B21a1. about 4/5 years ago in highschool I attempted to...

Hey guys, I recently (finally) started work on the engine I plan to use to replace my worn out b21. I'm piecing together parts at the moment, and the block/crank/rods are at the machine shop as we speak. Basically what I want to do with this motor is overbuild it slightly, so I can have the...

Hey guys, so the B21a1 is definitely and finally toast at 357'000 kms :/ it runs and revs, but it's got a pretty serious knock in the bottom end, so it's time for me to start thinking about building a real engine. I'm in school now so I won't be building for at least 8 months, but I want to...

Hello, My name is Mike and I'm from British Columbia, Canada. I was asked to make a build thread as I was nominated for Prelude of The Month and I should have started this thread many years ago but better late then never right? hah. I'll update this as much as I can with better photos and...

Hey guys, I'd like to share with you the progress on my baby since from when I got it in 2011. It was my second car and my first real project. It is always a work in progress, which is quite slow at the moment due to my university student budget. I got the car in the end of 2011, completely...

I will be putting in a built B20a5 shortblock with a B21a1 head and intake, then a turbo system. I will post explinations as I go. As I build or mod, I will post photos. I will try to be as comprehensive as I can. Like it, hate it, you decide. This all-stock 91 California car is what I am...

Before I ask my question, I think i should give a little background info on my lude. So-I've got a 1992 Prelude Si with H23a1 (non-VTEC) engine and all, and later found a complete H22a4 (VTEC) engine for $50 from a shop. A friend and I made a frankenstein out of the DOHC VTEC H22a4 head on the...
