SEMA AUTO SALON, PA

 

wat happened to tht corvette, ouch

 

Glad you had fun, I was supposed to make a road trip to philly, but my 2 friends backed out, and I had to get my brake work done on saturday, I had tickets and everything. Looks great, glad to see what I missed.

 

You been M.I.A man..nice pics the cars are crazy looking. What's next for the CL?

 

good point, hows the prelude engine holding up.

 

Yeah, fellas, I know I've been MIA, Prelude motor is great, I beat the shit out of it daily and it surprises me everyday. I haven't sprayed it much becuase I am too scared I may blow something. What's next for the Clude?..... Good Question, I am going to rebuild the motor with forged internals over the winter, and do what everyone wants to do, throw a turbo on the sucker . I won't lie, over the winter, I had to purchase a hooptie because the motor wouldn't start in the cold. Turns out, after replacing everything dealing with fuel and ignition, it was a 45$ Temp Coolant sensor!!! Errrrr I was made but at least I got new stuff on the whip now. I race motorcycles so I have been busy doing getting ready for this track season. if you want to check out my projects goto http://www.wam.umd.edu/~pbrown and you can see my swap and other projects I have been working on. The show was cool, I mainly went to support my boy that has a RHD VR4 straight from Naganho (sp) Japan. But for all you guys out there that are thinking about the swap, It's great, I would recommend it to anyone, just make sure you bring your wallet and patience because to get it right it takes time.

 

So I see my boys from G4 TV were there interviewing the CL guys. I work there, so when I get to work tomorrow I'll try to fing that interview on the servers and catch your rides.

Nice to see that SEMA love go East, I still dig the big show in Vegas in November though.

 

nice pics,what kind of car was in the 1st pic of cars and ion?(orange/black) that vette's interior was sick....there was a guage for the gauges.

 

Word, let me know if you see an interview from Big C (i believe that's him) talking to guy named Bernard that owns a right hand driven VR4 and if so see if you can find out if that joint will air or make it to final production.

Thanks, Paul

 

Yeah tell me about it. The first car is the new Civic Hatch back I believe. Don't quote me on that because I am not sure but I believe thats the new Civic Hatch back.

 

nice show
glad to see im not the only one who went auto to 5 speed on the H22

 

Naw never that, and if want to see or reminse (sp) on the swap you can always goto my site under the link with my signature, and re-live those horrible moments hahaha this is assuming you did the swap yourself of course

 

Any pics of the RHD GTO?

 

Naw sorry, I didn't even see RHD GTO at sema, hell I haven't seen one anywhere lol but if you find it let me know, I'd like to see that.

 

I meant of your friend's VR-4. They're called GTO's in Japan.

 

Oh, no problem check these out

 

My bads, I thought by VR-4 you meant the 3000gt (GTO in Japan). But you meant the Galant VR4's. LoL, we both got mixed up. Thanks for the pics.

 

hahaha yeah you right, oh well its all good, no problem.

 

Yeah, i was gonna say that. Almost called you a

 

I was going through a bunch of my CES pictures from this year and a lot of those cars were at CES this year.

 

I didn't know the CL was built on the 4th gen prelude chasis??

off topic: did this swap, had a clip also shipped via crate to baltimore. From the pictures i see you have you had the same problem. WIRING was a bitch.

Naw, I got the clip from this importer in CT. I took the badge off and mounted it in the same spot as the prelude one on the JDM clip was mounted. I heard cops around here are pulling people over and hanking the motors out if paper work does not line up, so I am just covering my butt so I don't get sent home with a rolling chasis. And yes WIRING WAS A TRUE BIOTCH!!!!!! Going from OBD2 to OBD1 was a hug blow and I can't say I would do it again. LOL but I love the power increase

 

I bet
