Hello Everyone!!!

[ImportGirlTN]

Hi my name is Jill Fountain and Im from Tennessee. Just thought since Im a new member I would post a little bit about my car.
2001 Honda Prelude Show/Race
Mileage 4500 Actual Miles on Motor 1300
Full customized lude inside and out!!!!!!
Motor was built by JG Engine Dynamics in CA.
450hp all motor!!!!
Too many mods to list lol.
And I am selling her. $35,000as is or $30,000without the stero system. I have $60,000 invest in the car but I need to sell her asap (family reasons). If anyone wants more info or pics let me know at TheFountains_1@charter.net or call (423) 928-1399

wow, HAI is going national!

[nolimitsoldier]

national females at that! Come on Mecham, what do we want here? hehe!

[Brian]

450hp n/a huh? Now is that a real dyno proven number or a wild guestimate?

[nolimitsoldier]

I agree with that, let's see a dynochart.

But welcome to the board anyways!

[Dallas J]

DUDE!! That body kit alone has to at least Double the HP....;)
Actually if it does have that much HP NA, then gut that thing and run it in pro-NA races...I doubt any 4 cyl NA has that much. I think all those guys running in the 10s-11s NA have just under that. I could be wrong though...I think they make those numbers by their lower weight restrictions.
Oh, I dont like the Interior or Front bumper. But i would never buy a honda in the first place, well maybe a daily driver.

Do you really think that anyone would pay $5000 for a used stereo? I think $35,000 is a bit too steep as well, espescially for a car without a driver side airbag. Oh well, good luck and welcome to HAI! And I would like to see a dyno chart as well.

[ImportGirlTN]

Ok first someone mentioned aigbag? what are you talking about.

And no the car has not been dynoed yet....the motor just got put in and the builder at JG Engine Dynamics promised 450hp. So no it is not just me guessing that is that I was told. Im a girl I dont know how to estimate that stuff lol. But for real that is just what the builder told me.

Second off the stero system is not used! I just bought ALL of it and put it in the car. Nothing has been used on it at all! And i have all the boxes and reciepts for all of it.

And also a used factory prelude with that mileage is a little over $23,000 on Kellys Blue Book. Not including anything done to it. so if I sell it for $35,000 then I am only getting $12,000 over that and I spent $7000 on just the motor being built and $6000 on stero stuff. So I do not think that is too much.

And I would never have posted on this forum if I would have know how totally rude some of the people on here are! People in TN at least have manners! Did your mother not each you "If you dont have something nice to say then dont say anything at all"

[nolimitsoldier]

Hey, you don't have to leave, we're actually a really cool board, I think it's when people hear about a prelude with something like 250 more hp than stock, they want to see proof.

[SinisterWRX]

how about a picture of you next to the car :)

[stu]

I noticed that you have an after market steering and it is hard for me to believe that there is an airbag in that thing. Also, as soon as you purchase something, it is used. No matter how much you didin't use it. Take cars for example. I am only commenting on the price because I used to sell cars, and it was hard enough to get people to buy cars at reagular prices let alone over $10,000 more than Kelly Blue Book. I am not trying to be mean, I am just skeptical, if you DO happen to sell it for that much, Great JOB!

[stu]

By the way the engine builder was probably refering to 450 crank horse power. And when you just say 450hp, everybody assumes you are talking about wheel horse power, which is always less.

[ImportGirlTN]

Ahhh ok I wont leave. But play nice people! Sorry I do not have any pics of me on here. By the way I just put the car on ebay for sell so if anyone wants to see a list of my mods check it out. Most of them are listed on there the number is 1858469961. And if I can get there I am going to take the car to the local track and run it once Thursday night. If I am able to go I will post the slip for you all. I am dieing to see what she will do also. I have not been over 60mph in her yet. And have not taken it over 5grand since Im breaking her in.

By the way where is everyone on here from? Just wondering!
:bounce: cute little bouncey ball hehehehe

[stu]

Just about everyone on this board lives in Colorado.

[ImportGirlTN]

Sorry i didnt scroll over far enough to see that one guy was talking about the airbag in the steering wheel. No it does not have a drivers or passanger side airbag. But here in TN airbags are not required in any vehicle even if they come factory with them.

Oh and husband said that the builder told him the 450hp is at the crank. Just thought I would let you know.

And someone mentioned gutting the car or something. I would never! My first love is shows then racing. I am not a hard core racer. I just wanted a little more get up and go than everyone else around my small Tennessee town lol.

:bounce: :bounce:

[2000SiVTEC]

What all is done to the engine to get 450 N/A horsepower out of it? I am pretty skeptical because many of the all motor pro imports arent even making that kind of power.

[ImportGirlTN]

Ok here is part of the build up..i am not gonna take an hour and list every friggin thing LOL!!!!!!!! And as far as how many hp it actually has like I said that is just what the BUILDER told me and I have never raced nor dynoed the car so please get off my back!

Ok so dont ask me what any of that means like I said I dont know. And thats ok because I like the car and had it built for me to like so thats all that matters.:D

And if you dont think it has that much hp then dont fuss at me. I didnt build it and i did not make that number up. That is just what i was told. So if you want to be rude and fuss at someone fuss at JG! LOL

:bounce: :bounce:

That one guy!!!? We are all family here. Talk about being rude. Please use my first name Stuarto (it's Italian) J/K. ;)

Anyway, I didn't say that not having an airbag was illegal, just undesirable.

P.S. I noticed that you are using AEM True Power Pulleys. If you are using the crank shaft pully you better sell your car before the engine gets messed up. The other reason why I thought that no onw would buy your car for that much is because you have violated the drivetrain warrantee; among some other ones I'm sure (no airbags).

I think that it is cool that your hubby did all that stuff for you. He must really like you or something.

[ImportGirlTN]

No I am not using the crank shaft pulley on her. And what I was thinking is that the type of person that would want a new car with a motor built that much and so much customization done to it probaby isnt wanting it to drive every day...just take to shows and race a little so they probably wont care about having any warranty. :bounce:

[Dallas J]

Im not being a dick here, I just highly doubt that you have a 450 HP N/A 4 cyl. You would have to have a complete stand-alone engine management setup and be tuned the the ragged edge, One crazy manifold, HUGE cams, damn near no exhaust, and a 9k+ rev limiter. Your car would barely idle at less than 1500 rpms. Its just not gonna happen on a streetable 4 cyl. Now if you had a turbo in there we might be able to believe it, or i should say i might... I just wont believe it untill i see it.

-Dallas J

[ImportGirlTN]

Along with the P72 computer is a Motec Fuel Managment System and if you read about I put the rev is at 9 but my hubby says its at 9200. It has 310/320 duration cams. The intake has been port matched to the head and bored out, and was sent to Exturde Hone, Throttle body had been bored to match intake.Has a high flow cat. My hubby had the header polished on the inside. And it runs off of a min of 110 octane race fuel.

Oh and by the way the car is not street legal in most other states. It really is not legal in Tennessee according to the laws however they do not do State Inspections here.

And besides I told you that if you have a problem with what the BUILDER told me then take it UP WITH HIM>and get off my back dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ImportGirlTN]

Look getting all rude with me and stuff made me forget my friggin bouncey ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[CSMsi311]

Would it be rude of me to try and steal your points? :confused: j/k I won't try that.... yet

By the way, very nice car. Did you win a lot of car shows in Tennessee?

Jason

[ImportGirlTN]

The car was just finished but, I have been able to hit two of the local shows and she won 1st place in Import Wild in both of them.

No point stealing! LOL LOL

:bounce: love that bouncey ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[2002jettavr6]
