I have a friend who bought a 93 prelude and he has just gotten a cold air intake. the only bad thing about the car is that it is automatic. he isnt sure whether he should spend the money to switch out the transmission or just invest in a new car. what do u guys think he should do.

sell and new car, unless he has lots of upgrades and will just lose too much money by selling it

i think that would cost more then just converting it and like i said it other posts i only paid 4 grand for the lude with at least 3-4 grand in extras.

So sell it for more than you bought it, and start your own project.

I am thinking of selling it and getting another lude so if anyones interested give me a post,ill be posting pics and specs of it pretty soon, but im just thinking of selling not to sure. becuase half the extras i got with the car are extras i wouldve gotten if i started my own project car.
