85' lude shouldi use 6k fer a v-tech and drop it in??

[patrick291]

i was wondering if you could help me with something, im in the military in japan at the moment and ill be back in mississippi in dec, ill have 6k saved up to dump into my 85' honda prelude, it has 170k on a rebuilt engine, manual 1.8L it runs great but id like to beef it up, what do u think i should do? i have a muffler and air filter on it. i wanna get headers/high flow cat/wheels/spoiler/airbags/bodykit but 1st i wanna work on the engine
i was gunna bore it out port polish but i think that would be a waste i think. should i just get a new V-tech and drop it in???
if i get the V-tech will i have enough money to do anything else to it?? thank you for your help

ditch the almost 20 year old car and buy a better platform

oh man, well its vtec not V-tech. I assume your refering to buying a new motor with vtec and that would probably be a good idea since its an old car. With 6 k you might as well sell the 85 and buy a newer teg or something. seems like a waste of money to put it in a 85 prelude
