Project Prelude

[CamaroSSBoy346]

I've only seen 3 preludes on this board. A Revell, and the Aoshima Jun prelude. Heres my Fujimi Active Sports VTEC Prelude. This kit really lacks details (no brakes..? ) So i added a pair of Corvette Z06 'stoppers' on them. It came with the 18" rims stock too. I also got a pair of custom seats for it. Still to come is a polished exhaust pipe.

Nice paint, what color is that? is the hood C/F? looks pretty good, those rims are cool lookin, where'd u get this kit? I have only seen it in one place..

[CamaroSSBoy346]

The color is dupli color. Not sure what the name of the shade is. The hood, and mirrors are "krylon karbon" firber. Or stuff painted black to represend carbon fiber. I got this kit at tinyimports.com

Your off to a great start.Love the colour.

Okay, heres some more mods. I gave it a cat back exhaust with a chrome muffler (used plasti-kote chrome in a can). Also i gave it altezzas (they look nioce on preludes; such as the SPOCOM Prelude that was posted before. Just got to do some more painting... the mods on this car are subtle but really enhance it. (4 Wheel disc brakes-Z06, 18 inch rims (even tho it came with it) the altezzas, seats, and the muffler

looks good mike, have you by any chance finished: granda got a 302, celica gt4, 350z, your SS?

[SonyMobile]

So what do you think of this kit? good, quality, crap, waste of money??

[CamaroSSBoy346]

302, GT4, 350Z, and SS are all about 80% finished. Im just having some trouble wuth all of them that i do feel like fixing.

This prelude isnt as good as other fujimi models (thats saying something). It has fit problems galore. The rear suspension doesnt fit, you have to notch the frame so it can steer. And the back wheels are to far backwards. Not to mention lack fo detail on interor. But if your a dedicated honda fan, its okay. BTW everything is held together by screws.

Great thanks for the info man, i think im gonna stay away from this kit, doesnt really seem like my type of kit, I like it when there are fitment problems because that proposes a challenge, but screws... not my thing at all, but it seems like you've done a pretty good job, great looking paint.

[CamaroSSBoy346]

Yeah, i think i might take a break on this for a bit (its giving me a head ache; not to mention im not a dedicated honda fan, i just thought it would be a fun project), so im gonna focus my attention on my rebuilding of my GSR Integra, and Challenger.
