Why? Are there any major differences between your current Prelude and that one?

Crazy Asian

Hell ya damn Honda gave all the freaking good shit to Canada and the Euro Hondas.

Basically it boils down to this. Honda Fog ligts, SiR leather seats, rear mounted wipers, 4WS basically we have ATTS which is nothing comparted to that, Navigation, Climate Control, Side marker lights, power FOLDING side mirrors, red stiched e-brake handle, strut bar, trunk tray, cd changer, door courtsey lights(SH Owners not the one on your door but in door jam), Interior Courtsey Light, Corner Foglights, Parking pole for the front and the rear of the trunk, front and rear parking sensor, and trunk mounted spoiler with lights on it to help you back up.

We have none of those. All we got is this gay USDM foglights which looks like crap, no navi, and some wood shit. As you can see if we had those. Preludes would sell like crazy but we got nothing. Seriously nada.

Crazy Asian

AHAHAH custom brokers or if you want to go through headaches you have to file for crap. Better just get a custom broker. I got a friend who does that so Im a talk to him about his. Autotragic my ass....if you sell this car in the US I bet you I can 18k out of this. Also since it only has 23k Miles for 97 Prelude...AHAHHAHHA. No matter what the KBB says there are no Prelude out like this in the US road all mimic JDM but none comes close to this.

ur getting all excited and basically you already have this car bro all the stuff that you mentioned thats so cool about it are basically bolt on stuff that you could buy from a jdm source, ie int. lights fogs. bumper pole. got bad news for you that navi you want so bad wont work here in the us only in japan so there that to worry about trust me bro the price its gonna cost to get your "sweet deal" here in the us fully registered and insurance you might as well just keep yours and swap some stuff over just my 0.2

Crazy Asian

Actually navi would work. A bunch of prelude owners know that the acura cd for navi would cross into that so it would work in north america region. And also those seats and that steering and that 4WS is impossible to get. You think you can get that? HAH try, Ive been looking for just the seats for the past 3 years and right when I find em sold. So ya its a bitch. Though I need to paint the damn car which is soon and Im getting JDM sidemarkers...so hmm.

hell ya....booo. Though Im talking to my broker seeing how soemthing can happen and he says it might. It possibly might. So the Prelude is gonna be up in a used car dealer prob without the lip kit, fogs, cf gauge bezel, Mugen pedals, JDM type S intake, JDM fogs, and carbon fiber hood. WOOO!!!!

Crazy Asian, I was looking at that on that site, it was around 7 to get it shipped. I guess it was shipping to canada and im guessing it costs around 12 to make it legal to drive in the states? Fuck that.

Crazy Asian
04-25-2007, 01:03 PM
yep. Basically Honda Preludes and Honda Accord are rarely imported in the States therefore there harder. Skyline's and S15s are the most commons follow by the Integra and Civic. Therefore the EPA, customs and what not are gonna be a real bitch.

How about importing a 4ws one from canada?

lol, just get the car and swap the fucking vins from your car and sell it to a dirty scrap yard or part it out on the prelude forums or something, when you go to tag it or something, "sir i got a rhd conversion, auto swap, and sir seats." it's worth it, then do a 5spd lsd swap. that'd be sex.

why don't you just import the car for race purpose only and then change all your vin tags over and just never get caught

05-30-2007, 07:40 PM
I may know someone who can get one of those into the country for you. It would cost a bit more than 6k ish, however. He normally imports skylines and s15s.
