ive been holding out on you guys

on august 4 i moved to mobile alabama

16 hour fkn drive!!!!!

whats worse is, 2 weeks before the move... i bought a car

a 1993 Honda Prelude

silver
5 speed manual
good *** sound system in it already
F22A engine

155,000 miles

but a strong runner with no shifting/clutch/engine problems
stock as hell
but im loving it

this will get you laughing tho

a few weeks ago, i noticed a ton of ants crawling around my exterior
so i killed them by smashing them.. that went on for a few days, until this morning

getting into my car my friend that i moved down here with, noticed a ton of fire ants carrying their eggs in a line under the passanger door
(for some reason they avoid my interior of the car)
i was pissed all day today
got ant killer spray and that pioson food stuff
and got a car wash at Shell

came home an sprayed the isht outa my cars seams and around my headlights. set them food traps

and now im just waiting for the results

if it doesnt work..... would anyone know how to get rid of all these ants from my car!!???

thanks

Fire ants. Another reason to love the south, lol.
If you're looking for a good Honda forum Honda-tech.com is one of the best.

prelude power is pretty good also. You don't get all those boy racer civic guys. I'll have to check out the honda tech forum. By the way, I have an 89 Prelude for my winter car. I don't like driving my P5 in the winter with all the gravel they use on the highways. Damn Mazda paint chips if you look at it wrong.

oh man, i got pissed and pressure washed the hell outa my car... the hub caps lost most of the paint that was on em.... i got these ant food poison trap thingies that worked pretty good, and an ant spray that kills on contact, yet leaves a residu that stays for 2 weeks... i think i got most of them out.. im not seeing anymore.... but the funniest thing is, my friends who i moved down with, owns a 01 S2000.. and its got my ants now!!!!!!!

thats gotta suck

well, reason why im not going to the honda forums, is because id be too busy hating on the ricers who give me ebay modification tips and macdonalds Mcanic advise

im gonna learn to mod my car on my own, simple engine bolt ons.
was thinking about getting an H22 engine...

im not gonna be driving an notice a blue P5 tailgating the mess outa me now am i?
im not lookin for trouble

plus, would a womp fit a 2.2 litre engine for my car?

I'm not going to persue mass producing FI kits anymore. Too much work, too little money, not enough time. If you want a custom one-off kit let me know. Other than that I'm out of the game.

I'm doing the turbo in my brothers XRS and then maybe a turbo on the rx7 but the only thing left I have to supercharge would be the SHO.

Don't worry about the blue p5 coming up behind you.....It may be sold this week.

im not sure my preludes ready for FI yet... although i would like to start researching.
im not sure if i want turbo lag, but im not sure i want a constant induction when its not needed, with the gas milage n such and with the city traffic combo. but defiinatly a FI is looked for


hope you sell your car and dont get screwed over.

so what car should i be watching out fer?

If you get a prelude and want some boost I'd suggest a sinple JR supercharger. A Roots blower will actually improve gas mileage when you stay out of it. It becomes a positive displacement pump increasing your engines volumetric efficiency.

Also, that roots blower will give you more bottom end which is exactly what those hondas need.

I sold the car. Just waiting for the kid to come through with the check. I'm buying a Speed6. I've already put my deposit on it.
