why?
I was wondering...why is it that Mugen doesn;t really show any love for the prelude?(I've found some parts online...but they're only like...strut tower braces for a 4th gen.) Is it cause they're heavy? Pricey? Not as popular as Integras or Civics?
WHY MUGEN, WHY? |

I always thought it was because the prelude wasnt as popular in japan as it is here.

What a crappy response. They're quick...but they could be quicker. They might as well have said "we just don't wanna try".

Mugen just stopped producing the stuff. They did produce it. For the sol they made front bumper, side skirts, wing. EG suspension fits on it. Strut tower bars fit, rims, tons of motor shit blah blah blah...

hey a lot of the ek parts have been discontinued too....stupid ep3.
Hondata recently stopped all research on obd1 stuff so they could focus on new rsx and si. Its something that can't be helped unfortunately... Which is really strange, since all the old domestics (even 80s) have continuing production and new parts. Guess that means our hondas are disposable technology huh |
