Making a return...
Well guys, hopefully this deal is going to work out. A friend of mine has a '93 non-turbo Zed coupe manual, he's looking to get into a reliable Honda, and I've been trying to trade my '97 Prelude Type-SH daily driver for another car. So I have a chance to get back into a Zed for my daily driver. The engine was originally fully built for nitrous, it had a 100 shot, and was actually pretty quick. When he got the car, he uninstalled the nitrous, he didn't want to risk the engine's integrity. That did a lot of NO good, the engine spun a bearing and destroyed the entire bottom end. I'm not sure what could have caused the bearing to spin
A JDM VG30DE was installed (The shop charged him $4,000 for LABOR... BWAHAHAHA), and it's running good right now. The modifications are as follows:
-Stillen exhaust
-Stillen headers
-Custom testpipes
-ACT Stage III clutch
-Fidanza lightweight flywheel
-JWT single Pop-Charger
-Black 17" wheels of somekind, not too sure, but they look like NISMO LM-GT4s with a polished lip.
It's the same color as Freak's Zed, looks nice with the wheels.
Anyway, here's my question. I've been out of the Zed game for so long, I've forgotten, what are the problems with these cars again? What do I need to look out for? What do I need to check often?
I can't remember specifically, but I believe it goes something like:
-TIMING BELT
-PCV valves
-EGR valve/arms
Anything else I'm forgetting?
Thanks in advance guys, hopefully this is my return. We'll see.
