    Limiting power for new drivers

    Actually I disagree. You just hear about the ones that cause the mayhem. Go into any sixth form or college and take a look at the driving styles of the students. These are all young and inexperienced. MOST have a very careful and mature approach to driving. Sadly, like many things in life...the...

    Pothole budget is too small

    I wish they would. It's like warming up your tyres constantly in this area trying to avoid them!

    Changing interiors...

    Ok, so as much as I love my Prelude...I hate the interior! It is green, which matches the car (for now, she is being resrayed either blue or burnt orange). Now, I'm not a major fan of green, and I am desperate to change it. Does anybody know the best way to change the door cards, or recover...

    Limiting power for new drivers

    I had forgotten about the natural level if I'm honest. However In still think the limit should be lowered. Anyone who has even one drink should not be allowed to drive. I know people might argue this with the point of getting to hospital quickly, but that is what the emergency services are for...

    Limiting power for new drivers

    Agreed. I might be young but I've seen enough of my friends crash high bhp cars within the first 6 months. I passed my test quite quickly so have been driving for 6 years nearly and the only crash I had was in the first 5 months of passing my test. Entirely my own fault, thinking I was already a...

    hey guys

    What do you do for a living? I'd have major trouble insuring any of the cars I had previously or my prelude currently (Roughly £1800pa for me) but as I work in the car industry I have a traders insurance. I legally can drive any car as long as it doesn't fall into the classic car family. The...

    A slight issue...

    No she is running fine other than the obvious problem. I'll get her serviced next week as I haven't had her long and can't find the paperwork relating to services. She had a mini one when we first got her but I'll go and get a full one done and see if that helps unless anyone else has any ideas?

    A slight issue...

    Whenever my engine heats up slightly, my car won't seem to start! I have to wait a few minutes before she will start (highly embarrassing in a petrol station!). Anybody have any clue why this could be? Tried re-teaching the ECU to rectify idle problems but this hasn't worked :(

    Hmmm I hadn't considered that if I'm honest. I will have to have a think about that one :) Thanks for the idea

    when is the right time to speed ?

    I didn't mean to necessarily speed everywhere. Driving an ambulance you do have to above the legal speed limit, but it's about control of the vehicle, not necessarily speed. I think that if you are competent enough, why stick to speed limits that are sometimes dangerous? The roads out this way...

    Another Hello :)

    The color is the one thing I really want to change! Haha! Not that I've decided what color to go. Far too many ideas :D I won't be changing it till I know for definite that I will stick to it

    when is the right time to speed ?

    Haha well it's not me! Had to do a course when I was training to be a paramedic in Coventry, but gave that idea up to start my business. I'm sure people will disagree, but in all honesty I think if the laws were relaxed, people wouldn't speed as much. It isn't as fun if it's legal. Along the...

    when is the right time to speed ?

    I also think that anyone who takes an advanced driving course should be allowed a different set of limits. I mean, if you can handle the car...why not use it for what it was made? I have a blue light license...so I have already done a high speed course...but not allowed in everyday driving. Even...

    Nah, it's the 2WS version. The cat will be coming off when I have the money and will take your advice on the exhaust manifold. Anything for a little extra kick :)

    What do you consider high mileage these days

    It's high but my old escort had 165k on the clock and ran perfectly. It's not all about mileage, it is how it has been driven. If it's motorway miles not really to much of a problem. However, if lent to a wannabe 18 year old racer with bugger all control....steer clear :)

    Getting a buzz from driving

    The other day. Windows down, roof open, sunny weather, going down country lanes where it is easy to get some fast cornering in :)

    Another Hello :)

    Thanks :) That might be a slight understatement. I am in the salvage industry...which is strange for a girl apparently. I might be a girl, but I can drive/drift/rally better than most of the men in my town. My other half who owns the business with me has lovingly nick-named me...

    Pulled over by the police

    3 times Once just after I had passed, to see why I was driving along county roads at 3am. (considering I live in the sticks and worked at a bar at the time, what do you think?) The other two more recently when for some reason my traders insurance wasn't flagging up on anpr cameras. Given a...

    Hey Guys :) My name is Tasha and I have my first prelude...and I'm in love! She is a '92 2.2 dohc vtec, I have been into cars all my life, although I used to drive BMW's, golf gti's ect. I'm a convert! Only subtle mods on her, drilled and grooved brake discs, 17" wolf racing alloys (which I...

    honda prelude big problem please help to solve

    Hi Sheldon, I have exactly the same model and have a similar problem. The revs drop too low and cuts out. It's the idle control valve. If the battery has been disconnected then you need to re-train the ecu. 1. Turn the car on and let her idle for about 15 mins. 2. Drive as you would normally...
