This is one you don't want to miss.  A beautiful Lude with no rust, fresh red paint, new tires, and a fresh, that's right a fresh swap.  This Lude was built originally as an automatic transmission 2.3 litre with power steering, air conditioning and really unreliable anti-lock brakes.  I was a pretty boring Prelude.  I swapped out the auto for a five speed and found a pretty rare H23A3.  The H23A3 is a non-Vtec European only version of the 2.3 liter.  It was used in European accord wagons and some other euro Honda I've never heard of.  I have researched this engine, and im confident that it has some pretty good horsepower numbers.  I have not had it on a dyno so I will not speculate.  The compression ratio is 9.8:1.  Low enough to turbo, and I have compression tested this engine and timed and tuned it, and it runs very strong, not an oil burning Vtec, all seals hold so it does NOT leak anything.  The transmission shifts great.  I left the stock exhaust on it, however I did Install an aftermarket performance exhaust header.  It has two intake systems with the car the shorty shown in the engine picture and a cold air included.  The entire engine bay has been scrubbed clean, the engine and transmission were power washed prior to installation.  The car has no spare tire or jack.  They were missing when I bought it.  I can probably find a space saver and a jack to include if that's a deal breaker.  The interior is very clean the previous owner didn't smoke in it but someone did & there are a few of those little burns here and there but they are in places you either sit or not in plain sight.  The interior was pulled and cleaned.  There are some small dings in the doors.  The brake pads are brand new and it stops on a dime.  I can include the power steering pump if requested.  This car is a head turner.   Great gas mileage but that should go without saying.  The power sunroof works great, no leaking, and no rust.   I built this car with care and attention to detail.  I can be contacted at 815-713-seven, seven, seven, five, between 8 a.m. and 11 p.m. central time, my name is Tony.   I can also personally deliver this car by trailer at additional cost.  I urge you to call with your questions and voice your concerns before bidding.  I will be more than happy to answer any concerns you may have.  I am a 15 year automotive technician who is a stickler for detail.  I would live to keep this car and boost the hell out of it but I just don't have the time, the room, or the $$.  If I had the money/time/room, I'd have this thing running high 12s maybe faster.

Honda recalling 204k CR-V, Odyssey, Acura RDX models over rollaway risk

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Honda has announced a recall over a possible rollaway risk that affects 204,169 crossover and minivan models. The specific vehicles in question are the 2012-13 Honda CR-V and Odyssey, as well as the 2013 Acura RDX.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "the brake-shift interlock blocking mechanism may become slow and allow the gear selector to be moved from the Park position without pressing the brake pedal." In other words, these vehicles could unintentionally roll away.
NHTSA states that this scenario may only happen during sub-freezing temperatures, but notes that this means the vehicles fail to conform with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 114: Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention. Honda will notify owners of the problem, and dealerships will install an updated interlocking mechanism free of charge.

Translogic 189: 2015 LA Auto Show

Tue, Nov 24 2015

The LA Auto Show has become known for its green cars and concepts, and 2015 was no exception. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley gets all the details on BMW's 330e plug-in hybrid straight from BMW President of North America Ludwig Willisch. Then we get up-to-date on Honda's latest FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel cell car. We round out our tour with a stop at the Elio Motors booth for a look at their updated, three-wheel P5 concept and a chat with CEO Paul Elio. But first, we jump in a time machine at the Volvo booth to discuss Concept 26, an interpretation of how car interiors might evolve in the era of self-driving cars. "The reason why we talked about it as a time machine [is] because, really, Concept 26 is giving you back something that is so precious," explained Volvo senior director of design Tisha Johnson. "We're letting you delegate driving to the car, so that you can then have that time to yourself." Click here to learn more about our host, Jonathon Buckley.

Honda Builds The Crossover Of Bikes
Here in the land of Harleys and highways that stretch to infinity, Americans don't care much for sensible motorcycles. Unlike the majority of global bike buyers, North Americans tend to choose escape over utility, performance over practicality - that's simply how it's been done in the land of the free, at least until a funny thing happened on the way to the global recession.
As bank balances thinned and fuel prices crept skyward, sales of puffed up sportbikes and cartoonishly endowed cruisers plummeted. Americans rediscovered that motorcycles could be used for tasks like workaday commutes and trips to the grocery store, not just for riding into a Marlboro Man-approved sunset, fringe in tow. As consumers matured, manufacturers slowly responded with bikes better suited for purposeful priorities.
