Re: Sylvania Silverstar...NIB...5th gen headlights

For $400, buy it man. You sink a few grand, if that much, in it and you'll smash most cars on the road...that's why I bought it. You could easily be running with 350Zs in the dash to 60 for a mere $800 in mods. I bought it to rebuild. I bought the Prelude to drive every day. The prelude handled better...that's what ~20 yrs worth of technology will do for you. However, when I get the poly bushing set, sway bars and lowering springs in the 300, it'll be a different story. They were both about the same speed wise. My prelude was an auto though. I think a manual might be a tad faster stock for stock...auto was probably pretty close. But once the auto hit 4th gear, it was a slug. 3rd gear was fun though. The Z has an intake, "poor man's high flow exhaust" and a ghetto ass boost controller that doesn't work right so it's kinda not stock. It goes pretty well. I have TONS of plans for it...but I have to find something else to drive first so I can take it apart.

The Prelude was a little faster stock...but the Z has a turbo...all I have to do is up the boost...
