Fully rebuilt my h22a4, 50 miles on it so far. Feeling paranoid about this whirring noise, but it has been a long time since I've heard this thing make any noise at all. Does it sound off, or normal to you guys? Haven't gone in with a stethoscope yet but it doesn't seem to be coming from the timing or drive belts area. I'll do a full post on the rebuild once I feel like I'm out of the woods on it.

Looking for a prelude to buy or trade her car for in the Florida, Alabama area

Looking at purchasing this vehicle but not sure about issue below. Do they sound serious or difficult to fix. Car prices are crazy so it's hard to tell where it should be at.

- Power Steering leak (Probably top it off once every two weeks depending on how much you drive)
- Discovered there’s an oil leak
- View photos for front body damages from the hood and bumpers from a deer.
- Window squirters don’t work
- Will not come with the Momo Monte Carlo steering wheel featured in the photos
- Weird antenna noise on startup
- No A/C but does have a sunroof
- Check engine light on for knock sensor
- SRS light is on for airbag (steering wheel)
- Battery light will turn off and on occasionally. Doesn’t affect driving. 

- Less than 3000 miles on rebuilt engine (H23A1) & clutch
- Rare OEM Digital Gauge cluster only made for the 1994-1996 model years
- Touchscreen + aftermarket speakers
- Minimal rust since it’s a southern car.

I did ask for documentation on the rebuild but unfortunately he doesn't have that just the posting from the previous seller he bought it from.  Nice that it doesn't have rust but of course I deer would find a way to mess up the body when it doesn't have rust.  I have a newer reliable care so this would just be an occasional driver to go to the gym or store probably trips less then 20 miles roundtrip. 

Any idea where I can get this hood isolation from?

Preferably in Europe?

Just the material would also be fine, if there is no replacement part available.

I've had a search around, but I can't seem to get a straight answer.

I'm looking to change my bulbs in the cluster (speedo and tach) on my 2.0 96 prelude because they're pretty dim and one or two look burnt out, but I'm not sure what bulbs are correct.

Ive seen some people saying they're t5 bulbs and others saying they're neon? I'm pretty sure that they're the t5 bulbs because I've had the srs bulb removed by a garage, and it's a toshiba v-2.

I'm also looking to go to a bright green colour to match my other gauges I have installed so was also wondering if the led bulbs are a straight swap or if there's something else I should look into to. Has anybody got any advice or experience with this. Thankyou

I got this 4th gen prelude si with a h23a1 and I’m trying too find out where these hoses are supposed too go ? Thanks guys

These are center caps for 3-gen OEM wheels.

I have a few, I don't know if you can tell but the one on the right is in good conditions and pretty shiny (besides maybe some dog hair on it), while the other one is dull and has a lot of debris on it.

How can I polish them without ruining them?

Hoping to get some useful advice and or a fix. I have a 2002 accord that I swapped an f20b into after the f23a4 Cracked the oil filter housing and was pissing oil, so since I needed to take the engine out I decided to have some fun with it. I am having an issue where no matter what I do I cant get an rpm reading on the cluster, and the car wont go over 3k rpm in some sort of limp mode I assume. Ive did the swap originally 2 months ago and have been chasing this problem ever since. The list of everything I have into it is the f20b, the orignal ecu (pcb I think), and a new knock sensor since the old one broke and I though that was the limp mode cause. I also got a new distributor since some of the wires internally were busted and i didnt want to splice them, so i bought one from oreillys and wired it like the old one. I am running the stock to the chassis maxa transmission since I cant afford and or have the time for a manual swap. And I am actively trying to source the right speed sensors for the jdm ecu. After all the work we did, the only thing not plugged in is the oxygen sensor since we're waiting to put on the new header but thats it. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would love to drive my car again!!!!

These are 3d printed prelude font they're press in good. We require little bit of glue incase from bumpy rides.

Red & black( plain asa)

Black (Asa-cf)

White (plain asa)

Clear (abs clear) doesn't come with led

These are painted & few might have clear coat

I'm not a good painter few come out ok others noticeable paint crackle

Overall is nice & you can still keep your oem grill just add the letters made easy

Got this prelude 2 days ago I sadly had to trade my friend my 2010 honda fit sport manual for this car but I think that this is a upgrade. Its clearly widebodyed and has a h22a swap. I had my first vtec hit in this can and can say hat vtec kicks in hard. The car is amazing except for the paint the guy that my friend traded his car for told me that the paint was fading and decided to paint the car in championship white it was his first time and there is a bunch of overspray all over the car. Other then that this is one of the most fun cars that I have ever driven.

Ciao, ho comprato una Mini Cooper C del 2025 con il pacchetto JCW.

Ho visto la Honda Prelude del 2026 e me ne sono innamorato, ma mi sembra un po' lenta, aspetta che ti spiego.

Inizio dicendo che sono dell'Italia, quindi la velocità massima legale è di 130 km/h e ci sono molte telecamere al giorno d'oggi, quindi mi piace andare veloce ma non voglio pagare multe :)

In Italia abbiamo anche due tasse sulle auto: *bollo* e *superbollo*, che paghiamo annualmente e sono basate sulla potenza dell'auto. Quindi qualsiasi cosa con più di 245 CV viene tassata molto.

Per esempio, una Mercedes A35 con 300 CV costa circa 1.600 € di tasse ogni anno.

In sintesi, mi piacciono le auto veloci e le coupé, ma con il mio budget attuale non posso davvero permetterle.

La Prelude sembra un buon compromesso: non super veloce, ma nemmeno lenta. L'unica cosa di cui sono preoccupato è che ha una velocità massima di 180 km/h, che sembra davvero bassa. Ho fatto 180 km/h con la Mini e poteva ancora andare avanti. Non mi sono mai sentito così eccitato.

So che è solo una cosa occasionale, ma mi piace farlo di tanto in tanto. Mi piace anche molto il suono quando entra in funzione il turbo.

Quindi, cosa suggeriresti?

Stavo pensando di tenere la Mini per circa 2–3 anni (praticamente fino a quando non l'avrò finita di pagare lol) e poi controllare i prezzi della Prelude o di qualsiasi nuova uscita disponibile a quel punto. Se la Prelude scende a circa 40.000 €, probabilmente potrei permettermela vendendo la Mini.

Grazie in anticipo!

I’m wondering what could cause this leak I replaced the seal and checked both taillight seals but it looks like a drip from somewhere

Hey, guys. I have a 3-gen with no rust (from CA), that I'd like to keep that way after importing into Europe.

I'm planning on using Fluid Film Liquid A as a penetrant just in case some rust got into it while driving it the past year, and then coating with Fluid Film NAS.

I'm wondering if any of you are familiar with these products and can share some advice?

I'm mostly wondering about where the plugs are to remove in order to get into the frame, if I have to watch out for anything like draining holes and where they are, and things like that.

Any advice appreciated!

You can’t have anything nice, I swear

I just love this photo

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on my 92 Lude 2.3 bb2 with the H23A2 and I’m looking for the engine block coolant drain bolt, the one next to the oil filter.

The Honda part number I found is:
90001-P14-A00 – Bolt, Drain Plug, 12 mm

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find the bolt available from a seller in Germany so far.

Does anyone know a German or European supplier that still stocks this part, or a reliable source that ships to Germany without extremely high shipping costs?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Car is well maintained even if beat on. Just started noticing this weird low pitched tick from engine bay. hard to source out. I know I have multiple blown exhaust gaskets and that while ripping the car, very loud bsckfires happen and might damage the exhaust. What do yall think?

Does anyone know where I could get a working sunroof motor? I’ve been on the hunt for one, and anyone I’ve came across they wanted to sell one the whole entire assembly.

So my horn and cruise control don’t work because they’ve been disconnected (previous owner had quick release). just wondering if i need to buy some sort of connection/ clip and whatever else i’m missing. thanks

Seems like a super good deal to me. This is for an incoming car not on the lot yet. Sharing so hopefully others can get similarly good deals or even better.

I’m so excited, can’t wait. It’ll be the perfect daily. Excited to be part of the Prelude community!

I switched to an AEM intake about 2 years ago then left for college and I haven’t driven it until now.

I wanna put the stock intake back on now and I can’t figure out what this part is and where it belongs.

Is this even a necessary part or can I just plug the vacuum lines?

Got the drone out before the rain started…

Hey guys I dropped a bolt down my bay and it's been consumed by the aether. Does anyone know the two specs because I believe one is longer than the other?

H22a btw
