Milano Red 1993 Honda Prelude Si 5-Speed with 219,000 Miles

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In an unexpected but very welcome twist, I finally acquired a nice example of the only generation of Prelude that my family hadn't yet owned. Will be fun to play around with this a little. Thanks for watching.

    I still own my 1996 Honda Prelude VTEC in Azure Blue-Green exterior color and Ivory color interior leather, and manual 5-speed transmission. Garaged car with ultra low mileage, so today I drive it for fun a few times a month. This generation Prelude was and still is such a well-engineered and innovative styling (both outside and inside) sports car I cannot ever part with it. This was Honda's golden years for pushing the limits on cool designs and bringing their F1 race technology to their consumer automobiles.

    After just over 19 yrs, Tuesday, April 30th, 2024, I sold my 1999 Prelude Base 5spd in Milano red. After being hit head on back on Sept. 15th, 2015, it's been super difficult to drive a manual. Sad to see it go. 111,264 miles on it when Lucy left.

    Sad to hear that. I still drive a 1994 Toyota Corolla LE I bought from the previous owner on November 27th, 2013. She also had back issues and could no longer drive it, so she decided to sell. It has just turned 173,000 miles last week, and I restored it to its former glory last year: new paint job, headlights, original upholstery, etc. And I'm keeping it forever. I Hope Lucy finds another dedicated owner like you. Cheers!

Under close supervision of airport security I was able to drive the Prelude down the runway and past the huge international planes and then in through the baggage entry/exit which is alongside the baggage carousel and into the main terminal.

    I had a red 1992 4WS 5-spd. I did an H22 swap and some minor bolt-ons. To this day, one of my favorite cats ive ever owned. I would like to get a 1994 4WS in the future again. (The interior and odometers are better in 1994-1996) Most people dont remember/know that car critics did not like the dash layout. It was roo much of a departure from the 3rd gen. That is what encouraged Honda to do the electroluminescent odometer and change the center console. The last Honda to have glass-housing headlights, too!

The 4th gen Prelude was a great car - very cool to see such a clean survivor. The paint seems pretty clean, at least from the video - was it resprayed or is that the factory finish? Any road trip plans with it?

    Arizona seems to be a beautiful, sunny place. Its weather is kind to older cars, too. Very nice to see a well-kept machine like that. One problem I see even in those cars when they have high mileage, though, is that the steering wheel rubber doesn't age well. Is there a replacement? I'd pay top dollar for brand-new steering wheels for my '90s Japanese imports. Any idea where I can find it, Tyson? Thanks for the video, as usual.

    The only real flow with these is the oil consumption issues due to the rings wearing. Honda at this time was using something called FRM for their cylinder sleeves and it's not kind to rings over the long term do you end up with one rings slow compression and oil consumption. I believe the b21 and the third gen prelude was the first engine to feature FRM, but it was also used in the h23 and h22. Possibly the S2000 as well but I'm not quite sure. Great engines but one quart per a thousand miles consumption is not unusual.

    @@TysonHugie absolutely. The frm liner is interesting since apparently it's much much harder than the rings, causing the rings to car most all of the wear. Frm liners also are matte in appearance, and don't have the typical honed cross hatching at all. I'm not sure if this affects oiling to the rings but I can imagine it does and perhaps that's another wear factor. Also, frm liners cannot be honed or machined at all! I've read over the years the best thing to do it to toss in new rings and not even bother with honing, and the rings will wear themselves in. Pretty interesting stuff. Fun facts, Porsche also have used frm in the past.
