Sorry the site became somewhat dilapidated over the last 5 years. I entered the Army in 2010 and was swamped with long hours and missing years due to deployment. It's all over though and you can expect updates more often now!
Like / follow Prelude3g.com on facebook as I'll announce updates and also post some other stuff more regularly there.
As for this update:
Some site reorganization, the engine/tranny/swaps section is now combined into powertrain. Bit of a facelift. Bunch of fixes to old tutorials. If you are looking specifically for new stuff check out:
Vehicle Speed Sensor Maintenance added to common problems section.
Hybrid Racing bushings in powertrain trans section.
