Hi everyone,

I'm from PreludeAustralia.com/JDMSTYLETUNING.COM. I sold my Prelude recently (owned it from 170,000km to 300,000km) and i'm now looking for a manual B4 over the next month or so. I can only see 2 white models on car sales so i'll see how they are when I have some time (240,000km and 118,000km)

Not looking to go crazy with mod, I just want a reliable and fun daily driver. From what i've read, a tune from MRT and ~1.5" lowered springs only should keep me happy.

Talk to you guys later :D

Welcome. B4's are great fun. watch for bad turbo's. and any hesitations in accelerations.

may i recommend you keep clear of MRT until they get their act together. you'll find they are quite unpopular on here.
have fun

Thanks Jack. Yes, i'm sure there are other decent mechanics and tuners around.

Hopefully my Liberty B4 will be ready for pick up in a few days!

Welcome to the forums, Jason! Glad to see a fellow Campbelltown resident on here :D it's not quite as bad as they all make it out to be, hey :lol:

Looks exactly like my friend's B4, paint, wheels and all! Bet it goes like the clappers, too. Enjoy! I'll keep an eye out for you around town :D

LOL Ric. Speaking of the water feature - that was a pretty frightful run of wet weather we had in the past 1.5 weeks :| ... but all the better to have fun in our AWD cars with, amirite? ;)

Actually, my aforementioned friend was over last Saturday night. He took me for a "spirited drive" in his B4. He'd just fitted a new exhaust - 2.5" from the turbos (that's what a dump pipe is, right? noob question I know. Google tells me my hunch is correct :? ) then 3" all the way back. I was holding on for dear life :shock: didn't skip a beat on the wet roads though! And he didn't do anything stupid, just a bit of straight line acceleration. If it wasn't for having to spend $4k+ over what I'd get for my 2001 RX, I'd all over a new B4 :twisted:
