Hey mate,

My VTIR is the last of the Prelude i.e. Gen 5.. which are worth approx 17k (there abouts there's a few in canberra for sale around that figure)

I've seen R32's (non turb) for around the 10 figure..

I'd be willing to sell my Prelude for $16,500. The figure is neg a bit. but depends if the buyers is serious..

Dont have an R32 non turbo but I'd consider buying your car if it were at a reasonable price.

A R32 na = maybe 5-10g

+ 6g?

Too much 4 me i'm thinking.

The only ACTSAU na owner that I know is Dayne (R33 - RB20) but I'm pretty sure he wants to hang on to that...

NSW isnt that far away?

Neither is VIC?

Come to think of it. Freight trains pass through most of the major citys??? Try going national dude.

OR

Just sell it and buy an R32 with the cash.

I know its easier said to sell mine and then buy, but quite difficult to do!

But i'd also be interested in a NA R33 again same thing, minor cash adj.

there are some cheap gts-t R32's out there, but they are quite far away!

so a turbo is prob out of the question.

Most people probably wont like this but I have to say it.... Good luck mate, I dont think you'll find anyone keen on that deal as even nonturbo Skylines have much more tuner potential than a Honda prelude, Skylines are cheaper and easier to modify and alot prettier then Preludes and even if your not into modding it they are still a better all round car, Preludes were designed as a semi luxury semi sports car and theyre not even on par with Skylines...

Just my opinion, but good luck anyway! :)

      R32gtr sputtering and stalling

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.

      NPboosted manifold fitting purpose

      Yeah just run one of those posts to the Link like GTSBoy said. From google it looks like a "mishimoto boost controller" is a manual boost controller. Since you already have the link just buy any MAC valve and plumb it in where the mishimoto is now. Wires to the solenoid should come from the Link's / standard loom boost control wiring (I guess you have an r32, not sure if it is gtst or gtr, if it is GTR where is a 2 pin connector near the engine bay fuse box/injector resistor for that purpose, assuming the standard boost controller is gone)

      No. The ECU's hose is for a connetcion between the plenum (assuming single throttle body, not ITBs) and the ECU's internal MAP sensor. This is the primary load measurement of the ECU - so you need to get this one right. This has NOTHING to do with the boost contol. The wastegate also needs to see a boost signal - but it is actually far better for it NOT TO COME FROM THE PLENUM (again, assuming single TB, and not ITBs). This should come from the turbo's compressor housing (assuming there is a nipple on there, which there might well not be), or on the boost pipe somewhere between the turbo and the TB. On the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler is usually most convenient. The boost controller is then located between that boost source and the wastegate, ACCORDING TO THE CORRECT PLUMBING DRAWING FOR THAT BOOST CONTROLLER. There is no general diagram or instruction that will be correct for every case. Then the other ports on the plenum are for purposes such as Duncan described. If the boost controller has an internal MAP sensor, for a boost display, etc, then it will want to be hooked up there, alongside the ECU and the FPR.

      Ok gotcha, so one post to fpr  another to bov  and I have the mishimoto boost controller and a link g4+ so I’d just have the tuner set it up properly. For the last two from plenum post throttle to  ecu/ boost controller, I know that I have a hose coming from the ecu that I was confused about so I assume that’s what connect to the boost controller from the ecu? And then the last is just from plenum to boost controller then to wastegate?
