This is a 1989 Honda Prelude SI, manual transmission car. It is not running. The car has been stored under cover for a long time. We stored it in our carport while we were out of state. When we returned, something had built a nest in the timing belt. When we cranked it, it jumped time. We shut it down immediately. I replaced the head with a rebuilt head from National Cylinder head. The car ran fine with the rebuilt head. It did smoke on start up. The cylinder head came sealed in shrink wrap but it was obvious it had been on the shelf a long time. The ASE mechanic that helped me do the work felt a valve stem seal had dried out as the smoking was getting less every day we drove it. We had to go back out of state so the car sat again for a long period. When we returned there was a major problem with the electrical system. Something had gone to ground. Even with the charger on, it will not hold enough juice to light the headlights. Everything but the AC and the antenna retractor was operational when we stored it. The AC components are all there, but it was not operational. I have tried to show every defect in my photos, I have more pic's if you request them. Please ask questions, I'll do my best to answer them. There is rust in three places on the drivers side, specifically, a hole in the rocker panel behind the front wheel, two rust bubbles on the door, rust bubbles directly in front of the rear wheel. There is a scuff on the drivers side rear bumper corner. There are tears in the drivers side interior door panel where it closes. There is a small tear in the same place on the passenger door. The skylite is cracked but does not leak. There is a repaired chip in the windshield low in the center, not in your line of view. The undercarriage is solid most of the factory rustcoat is still in tact. When we replaced the head we did the timing belt and water pump. Also put a new fuel pump in it at that time. All the fluids were changed at that time, but they have sat in the vehicle now for over a year. The tires have decent tread but they should be replaced. As you can see from the undercarriage pics it need some exhaust work. There are not many of this body style classic Preludes left. This car needs lots of work but could be a great car for the right person. This car is sold AS IS, AS SHOWN, with no warranty expressed or implied. Please ask all the questions you can. I will be happy to answer them and provide more pics if you need them. Back around 2006 the car had a very minor accident. Bent the Front bumper support. Because of the age of the car, the insurance adjuster wanted to total the car. We disputed the action and won. We have the clear title on the car, and the body shop repair bill to repair the minor bumper support damage and the bumper skin.

Honda Baja race truck previews 2017 Ridgeline at SEMA [w/video]

Tue, Nov 3 2015

Honda is heading to this year's SCORE Baja 1000 with a mean-looking, race-prepped Ridgeline Baja Race Truck in the unlimited class. The tube-framed pickup makes a grand debut at the 2015 SEMA Show, but take a good look at the styling on display here. While it's a lot more aggressive than the real thing, it previews the production model that arrives in the first half of 2016. The race truck looks seriously tough with huge fenders, chunky off-road tires, and tons of LED lighting. According to Honda, "the front fascia, hood, roof, bed, and side profile" all feature elements that are inspired by the upcoming production version. Based on the version here and earlier teases, those cues suggest a more traditional, pickup-like appearance than the previous Ridgeline. Of course, any Baja truck needs serious power, and for this Ridgeline that comes from Honda Performance Development's HR35TT racing engine. The twin-turbocharged, 3.5-liter V6 makes around 550 horsepower in this application. Look closely at the front to find a hidden hood scoop that sends cool air to a custom intake plenum. Check out the gallery above for a look at the Baja Ridgeline at the SEMA Show. The video below shows off the tube-frame chassis underneath, and offers a great look at the engine, too.

The Honda exhibit also showcased a multifaceted display of personalized Honda cars, SUVs, powersports products and two- and four-wheeled racing machines. The Honda Ridgeline Baja Race Truck, in red, white and black Honda Racing livery, will compete in this year's running of the SCORE Baja 1000.

'Trouble-free day! No joke': Honda-powered Toro Rosso F1 car debuts

Thu, Feb 22 2018

LONDON — Honda's Formula One partnership with the Toro Rosso team got off to a positive start on Wednesday with a seemingly smooth track debut of their new car on a limited mileage filming day in Italy. "Trouble-free day!! No joke," commented French driver Pierre Gasly on Twitter. New Zealander Brendon Hartley, who was at the wheel of the TR13 car at the wet Misano circuit, reported on Instagram that "the new girl ran super smooth." This content is hosted by a third party.

Honda is starting over with the Red Bull-owned team this season after three seasons of failure with former champions McLaren left the Japanese engine manufacturer's reputation in tatters. A behind-the-scenes documentary, "Grand Prix Driver," released on Amazon recently shone a spotlight on the tension between McLaren and Honda that eventually led to the relationship tearing apart. It also revealed how the troubles had started before the launch of the car and were fully exposed once testing in Barcelona started when the car broke down repeatedly due to engine failures.

McLaren, who finished ninth out of the 10 teams last season, is now using Renault engines and hoping to be far more competitive. How Toro Rosso, and McLaren, fare this season will be among the intriguing sub-plots to the 21-race season that starts in Australia on March 25, with Mercedes and Ferrari again expected to be the frontrunners. Italy-based Toro Rosso, one of the smaller outfits on the starting grid, has taken the cynicism and gloom-mongering about its prospects in good heart. It put out a tongue-in-cheek Q&A at the time of the first engine fire-up that included the questions: "Did it take like six attempts to fire up?", "Did the engine blow up?" and "Did your factory catch fire after the engine started?" The respective answers were "Nope, the engine fired up on the first attempt," "Quite the opposite, it started just as planned" and "Our factory is perfectly fine, thanks for the concern." The final 'question' was simply, "Good luck, you'll need it." Reporting by Alan BaldwinRelated Video: Motorsports Honda McLaren Racing Vehicles F1 toro rosso

California approves unmanned self-driving car trials

Sat, Oct 1 2016

Given the number of tech companies that call California home, it's no surprise the state has been quick with forward-thinking legislation to support the development of self-driving vehicles. And almost four years to the day since driverless trials on public streets were first approved, a new bill has been signed off by Governor Jerry Brown that permits autonomous car tests without a human passenger overseeing proceedings. Rather than applying throughout the Golden State, the bill is specific to a pilot project headed by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority. At San Ramon's Bishop Ranch business park, EasyMile's 12-seater shuttles will ferry workers around the site, which will include traveling on some public roads. The approval also covers GoMentum Station: A ghost town within the Concord Naval Weapons Station where Honda has been testing its driverless car technologies. Recently, Uber-owned Otto also signed up to test self-driving trucks on the site. Google and Apple have also expressed interest in the naval base testbed, according to the transport authority. Apple's autonomous plans are still the subject of much speculation, but in the immediate future, Google seems like a natural partner. Manual controls including a steering wheel and pedals are not required in test vehicles under the new bill (since there won't be anyone on hand to use them), but for safety's sake cars must not exceed 35MPH during trials. Google has been testing versions of its cute little driverless pods without any form of manual controls for some time now, as it's of the opinion that humans are simply not a "reliable backup" to its self-driving smarts.This article originally appeared on Engadget.Related Video: Government/Legal Honda Technology Emerging Technologies Autonomous Vehicles California politics engadget driverless
