i was finally able to get pics of the lude seats and shifter in my car. i know the seats need to be recovered.. that will happen in due time, but for right now it will work for me....
look at the shifter isnt that shit alot lower than the stock shifter
(i put the e-brake down so that you could see how low it sits)

let me know what you guys think

haiduc

lose the back seat.

something to get used to. i need to do that prelude shifter. good mod.

moforose3.0

That shifter is a whole lot lower. How does it shift now, any difference?

d98clturbo

it is as tight as a virgin...lol
nice short shifts. i no longer feel like i am rowing a boat every time i shift
there is an incredible difference between the 2...

DigiBox

Definately taking the H22 swap to the next level. Lude engine, shifter, and seats. Nice work. Do you have any plans to re upholster the lude seats to match?

d5c5b

ok, hey....your mods surpass mine....ill definetly give you credit for money spent.....but i cant say im feelin the lude seats.....and your panel for your radio and timer etc....but hey, i'd love to see what the seats look like reapholstered!

d98clturbo

i got the seats and shifter for free...i also had 5th gen 5 lug conversion but ended up selling that....it would have costed me more money than i wanted to spend on the conversion...when i get a job ill lokk into doing the 5 lug again...i will definately reapholster the seats with 2 tone leather...but for now this will have to do

d5c5b

rock on....cant hate on any of my home town cl buds! just a lil' differ in taste!

suXor

I have never seen a CL without leather and wood grain like mine, I don't think I would have bought the car with that interior

Magel

just wanted to say i want that kind of set up so bad except i'm not feeling the lude seats just because i want to get some sparco seats later. Who did your swap and turbo cause hopefully in a year i can do that kind of engine setup.



Thanks

prelude seats look dumb how bout some stock cl leather seats??

ju5tchi11in

where else can I find a 5th gen lude shifter? I've been looking. Except in a junk yard... any general price quote you can infer?

d98clturbo

the only place i can think of other than the dealer would be a junk yard or ebay...mine is from a 4th gen

ApocalypseCL

not feeling the seats but the shifter is hoT! man that shift is soo low nice!

ju5tchi11in

so ur saying the 4th gen lude shifter fits perfectly in place of the stock cl shifter without any modifications? did you also get the adapter for the lude shifter?

nandowong

love that shifter, looks hot

infamouz trunkz

i like the shifter....great idea

ding069

I can't deal with a car that doesn't have leather. But you don't have leather in your car, and they are a step up for stock cl seats. Coated in leather i bet they are gonna look REAL nice, keep us posted....nice shifter

klepto

Haha your car is basically a prelude with a CL shell...lude engine, seats, shifter... You should tell ppl you had a lude, turboed it and gotta full Cl conversion

d98clturbo

lol...it sounds better to say i started with a cl

99CL

d98clturbo

did the lude seats bolt right up without any mods? Cause i just bought a recaro seat and need to find out what braket i need to get.

Thanks

RippinRide

are those 4th gen seats?

d98clturbo

no the seats did not bolt right up...if you are looking for seat brackets you need to get brackets for a 94-97 accord

"are those 4th gen seats?"
Yes they are.

CL22

can't find the shifter on ebay...

d98clturbo

check the local junk yards

99CL

Thanks d98clturbo. Gonna call my bro up and tell him it's a 94-97 accord braket. ONe more question. Are you 100% sure? Cause i don't want him to pick it up and it doesn't fit.

Ellusion

Damn that H22 is hot! Wish i had the money to do that...

ju5tchi11in

anyway... I was looking at some 97 prelude seats they look different from the ones d98clturbo has. but all in all the same... I was wondering how the comfort level is compair to the stock CL seats... my leg bolster is flat as hell and I fly around in my CL seat since the seat is to wide for me. Are the prelude seats tighter? Im going to get a pair for $75 I think. Or lower. I asked if the brackets come with the seats too waiting to see.

Well back from the ded.

97Black2.2CL

I figure that they be tighter around the upper body area. My buddy that i used to sit in all the time. I can tell you that they're really snug. You don't really slide around but I'll tell you they're not a comfortable as the CL seats.

12MiDNiTe

How much PSI you running? What are the dyno numbers like?


BTW I love what you have done with the CL but you need to clean
things up a bit. I'm not feeling the seats. You should of gone with
racing seats and removed the rear seats. Overall you have done a
lot of work for it so you get my props. Congrats!

12MiDNiTe

What cars have you raced?

ju5tchi11in

Thanks. Really? the CL seats are quite uncomforable.. my waist size is only 31 and chest is about 40. So im a pretty average/smaller framed person. 5'7" 140lbs.

Oh well I'll see if I can sit in on my friends 99... 97-01 are the same right?

ju5tchi11in

another thing... the 97 prelude brackets obviously will not fit... and from what I can gather from here either will the 92-96 preludes... and only the 94-97 accord brackets will do the trick... what do I need to do to get the accord brackets onto these 97 prelude seats?

ju5tchi11in

FYI... I was reading on h-a.net that the 97-up lude seats are much more comfortable than 92-96. Also picked up a bit more info from reading there that it is the 94-97 rails take them off the seats... (im assuming the 94-97 cord rails are the same as the CL ones...) and then line up lude seat and drill holes and ur set...

and the lude seats sit lower than the accord seats meaning they will sit low in the cl too... bad for me im short ... I already put the steering column as far down as it adjusts.

d98clturbo

sorry about taking so long to respond to this old thread....anyway...the seats are awesome..they hug you like your lady does.....they do sit alot lower than the cl seats (which i like) you wont be all over the car when driving with these seats...

as for me choosing to use these instead of real racing seats is the price...these were are FREE you cant beat that price...gotta run...ill post again later

ju5tchi11in

yeah please get back to me about install ill be picking them up on monday. thanks. the 5th gen lude seats are different from the 4th gen ones though... look similar in the width between side bolsters and lower cushion supports and stuff.

97Black2.2CL

yeah 97-01 lude seats are all the same.

ju5tchi11in

thanks good to know.. in that case I like them better than the CL ones. Sat in a 99.

d98clturbo

my 4th gen seats did not bolt right in i had to make a few brackets for them to fit....at first i was gonna use the brackets off of my cl seats but i didnt want the electronic seat adjustment (i hate that shit plus it weighs a ton) your best bet woulb be to either make a bracket or try to get the brackets from an accord...but that might still be difficult because the accord seat is alot wider than the prelude seat

as far as my doing other stuff to my car i really havent done much...i havent even dynoed it since i put together my new set up...

WAY TOO MUCH stuff going on in my life got married, bought a house, got a new job... so getting my car all back together isnt on my to do list right now..i will slowly but surely get it all sqaured away soon

ju5tchi11in

congrats on the marriage. congrats on the house too that is a good one.

just stop by here when you can.

thanks d98clturbo. ur an inspiration.
