Honda Prelude: How to install Seibon carbon fiber hood
In this video I finally get to install the Seibon carbon fiber hood on the Honda prelude. I explain and show how to remove the OEM hood and how to install the carbon fiber hood. The OEM Honda prelude hood is very heavy so even though this changes the look of the car it also has some performance gains because it’s reducing weight. Next I will show you guys how to install the hood pins since it’s required for safer reasons to help keep the hood from opening while driving. Thanks for watching

In this video I show and explain how to remove overspray from your paint and also the benefits of dry ice blasting your car. First the car was dry ice blasted in both the front and rear subframe areas and then in all four wheel wells. The engine bay was dry ice blasted but not as detailed as underneath the car so it did not produce the same result.

In this video I explain and show the possible causes for the P0505 code regarding the Idle air control system. I did a lot of research and found out that H series engines are very sensitive on the intake side of things and regarding the vacuum system as well. After searching the engine bay for months I was able to find the source of the problem. It was all caused by a vacuum leak because of a b...

Honda Prelude (97-01): Exterior door handle replacement
Hey what if the power steering belt is coming off and makes really loud noise any ideas what im doing wrong?
Should i bleed the system before trying this?
Man I'm going out now to see i been pulling my hair out
That's exactly how I felt.
This worked! I had a jumping idle since last winter. This year it just got too annoying because it wouldn’t go away until I started driving for a while. Between a guy at a car meeting letting me know what was wrong and your instructions, I got it done in under an hour just taking my time and struggling a bit with that top hose. Thanks!
Anytime. Glad you got your car fixed.
Gracias
Why do you need to bleed the system? What if you just let the car run until it burps the potential pockets of air?
Bro where can I get the Honda oil filter? Lol dumb question I know. Do they sell em at auto zone?
It's not a dumb question. The times I've went to buy them at autozone they always sell me the K&N filters which are not bad at all. If you want to buy the Honda oil filter I buy them at amazon now I do earn a comission if you buy them at amazon but it's honestly where I buy them and it's easy and convenient because of the delivery to your door and if you buy them in packs you can save money. Here's the link - amzn.to/3URCJCK
Always make sure you have good a fresh tip screw driver
What were the car symptoms that led to replacing
Nothing was wrong at all just wanted to replace it because it was broken.
My seat came with no bolts what sizedid you use to mout the seat to the bracket
I know they are Allen key bolts but I don't remember the size. I used the bolts that came with the seats. I searched in the instruction manual and the instructions are in Japanese but the only measurement for the bolts I see are M6x15mm, M6x20mm, M6x25mm.
Have you done a fule pump replacement, im doi g a tune up and i tend to check your channel first
That sounds clean af
Thanks.
Hello from Poland ! Thank you for beeing and helping mi with mods and ubgrades for my Honda I have the same car as you and help me a lot 🙏🏽❤️💪🏻
Happy to help!
i can’t loosen the alternator
Use PB blaster or WD-40 on the bolts. Try not to spray the alternator.
could never go wrong watching your videos. Very informative and educational, thanks man.. was looking to buy some of these coilovers for my prelude but just wasn't sure of how to do it, but watching this video made it seem really easy, thanks man...
Glad I could help. I really appreciate the positive comment.
What’s the name of the hose at 48sec i need to replace it but can’t find the name for it thanks
I don't know.
No wonder my interlock wasnt fucking working right and i had the battery light on
Thank you, I recently found out that I may have a bad clock spring so this will definitely help taking apart my steering wheel.
Glad it helped
Thank you
Welcome!
Where did you get access to be able to touch the vacuum box under the manifold?
I was able to fit my hand through the space right in front of the brake booster and the intake manifold.
This helped me a lot man! Thanks!
Thanks. Glad it helped!
At 2:09 what is the piece called on the top left?
Not really sure.
How much would this cost?
Here's a link to a replacement - amzn.to/3ZBUrx7
Was it a pain in the ass putting the rear upper control arms back in? I'm hating the driver's rear upper control arm
No not really. I think you mean your hitting the driver's rear upper control arm. In that case just check if it's in the right position.
@@automotiveobsession7265 Thanks bro, I'll try at it again. Probably gotta angle the arm a bit better to fit in the holes.
Did u have figment issues putting it on a prelude ???
Yes. It doesn't clear the rear transmission mount so therefore this exact setup does not work.
One question, at 2:33 seconds into your video, you pointed out the connector with the single red wire that doesn't plug into the radiator but is attached to it. Can you please explain what connector and type of switch this is, I damaged it and in need to replace it. I need to know exactly what it is. Thank you in advance
I looked on the car itself and researched but I'm not sure what that wire connects to or what type of switch it is.
Great vid...Does this starter still function 4 yrs later? I need a new starter and not quite sure about this Chinese one from DB
Thanks. Yes it does. It starts right up.
Can you use the axles from your auto and use the manual half shaft or does it need manual axles as well?
I used the exact same ones that I had with the automatic transmission.
why disconnect the battery?
Paranoid after almost causing a short.
i see everyone removing the clock spring but i don’t remember removing it on mine when i installed my quick release and it was fine, what’s the reason for removal?
There's not enough thread for the steering wheel hub to attach to that's why I had to remove it and I imagine that's why everyone else does.
Hey Bro, I Hope you can explain this to me? When I drive my prelude after sometime the Engine light goes on. But when I turn the car off and on again then the Engine Light doesn‘t turn on. The engine is working fine doesn’t stutter or have any other problems like loss of performance or something else. I was at a mechanic but the scanner didn’t show any problem. It’s an 1997 Honda Prelude BB9
It can be a lot of things because without the code you can't know exactly what's causing the problem. It looks like it's an intermittent problem that's why when you turn the car off the light goes away. It's good that the engine dies not have any loss of performance but it's hard for me to guide to a specific place if everything works fine. If I find anything I"ll let you know.
Great video thanks man, wondering if we need to apply some power to flick it on and off while spraying to get more gunk out
Thanks. Maybe but I would just be careful not to mess up the valve.
what's the lowest you can drop with those? I know the fronts are shorter than OEM so that will drop it low but was wondering how much further?
actually never mind, I found it on their website, up to about 4 inches which is pretty good flexibility
They have a nice ride quality and also just a nice quality product overall.
Connecting the Solenoid to the starter motor on a Honda prelude gen 4
Not sure what you mean?
Hey man do you know if there is any overlap for 3rd gens? the price difference for a 3rd gen where i liveis like 3k for auto 10k for manual and was wondering if a swap is worth it?
Not really sure I've never worked on 3rd gens.
Damn I got a 2000 crv and it’s on the firewall. That’s some bullshit placement 😂
I know that sucks😂
I know this video is 3 years old but would this be the same process if I did it in a 92 accord ex
Not really sure because I have never worked on that car. I know that prelude's and accord's are similar but that generation accord is a bit older than the 5th gen prelude which shares mor ein common with the CD7 accord. Check the transmission name and see if it's the same as this one.
Do you have any issues with the muffler burning the lip? Just installed mine and having that issue
The lip sits on the muffler but it's not causing any burns on mine. I would just cut it accordingly to make clearance for the exhaust.
Is that ticking sound normal? my lude has it too
Also sounds flipping awesome
Thanks.
I have not had any problems because of it so I would say it is.
Super helpful bro! Really easy to watch and straight to the point, definitely make more DIY services on the lude
Thanks
Brother, I’ve been having that issue for a whole year and nothing new with the thermal valve. It had nothing to do with the idle air control valve and once I replaced every single thing, the knock sensor code was the only thing that popped up. I literally just bought one and I’m going to install it when I get home. I know your frustration, brother. I got a nice Paul Walker paint job our 34 and then this happened and I’m like great and the H22 is very sensitive.
Sorry to hear that. I'm glad you at least are getting closer to solving the problem and getting back to driving your car. It's very frustrating but I also learned more about the car so I can diagnose and fix better. Thank God. H22's are very sensitive when it comes to air leaks.
So I'm going to look at a 1991 honda prelude soon. And the guy mentioned the car not shifting out of park withou the override key. I was wondering if this replacement will help?
Not sure it depends on the car and what the actual problem is. I also don't have any experience with the 1991 honda prelude.
I think it’s called the IACV butterfly that’s under the intake
Maybe. It is close to the IACV so I guess that's why the symptoms were similar to a faulty IACV.
How did you do the seat cable?
The directions just said to bolt up the seat belt release on the side of the seat mount with the hardware they provided. The seat belt is still in it's original location.
@@automotiveobsession7265 I did remove the seat belt cable and plugged in to the Recaro seat, but the airbag light still on even I took out all the cable from the old seat and connect to the new seat
I just can't do the airbags light 🤣 do you know how to do it? I searched people said use the resistor, but I don't know which one will fit my accord
Another great video, I wanted a Carbon Fiber hood as well but don't like the look of hood pins, although I can see the performance aspect of it
Thanks. I don't want to cut into the carbon hood but I have to to make it doesn't open while driving.
doing the exact same thing dude. this looks sick! what are your wheel specs?
17x9 +22 offset. The offset is too aggressive you should get a higher number to prevent the wheels from poking out of the fenders like mine. Do your research.
Looking good, got to be a lot of weight savings. The prelude hood is crazy heavy. Curious to know how many pounds it reduces. Looking forward to the next video
Thanks. I didn't have the chance to weigh the each hood but Iv'e read that its around 30 pounds give or take a few pounds. I can tell you from my personal experience that when I go to open the hood now it's a lot easier than before because of the weight difference. Stay tuned for more videos.
I think you missed the reservoir for the clutch master cylinder. Can you tell me which one you had purchased?
You’re right I missed it. I used an OEM one from a used car.
It turned out pretty damn sweet if you ask me.
Thanks. It means a lot after putting in all the work.
I have a 97 Prelude 5 spd very good car other than some small issues.
I agree
