ShowStoppers
USA presents another upcoming monster in the industry.
This 1999 Prelude is in the works and close to being the
next ShowStopper to grace Southern California. Darryl from
Glendale CA owns this up and comer.
Suspension:
Skunk 2 coilovers once again do the job of slamming this Prelude.
Tokico shocks were combined with the Skunk 2's to stiffen the ride.
Future plans will eventually replace the combo to a full Tien adjustable
suspension.
Engine:
All these listed mods do not compare to the sound this prelude produces.
The airflow starts with the AEM cold air intake and makes its way
to the 4-2-1 DC ceramic headers. From there it flows through the
custom gutted cat and finally out a full Greddy Evo exhaust system.
AEM tru-power pulleys and Jun cams are hidden within. This bad boy
produces a roaring sound heard a block away.
Exterior:
To mismatch the sound heard a block away comes a simple JDM exterior
setup. A Mugen style kit was installed with molded sides and rear
caps for a cleaner look. Authentic JDM fog lights were added for
extra spice to the front end. To top it off, a high quality, rolled,
grade A carbon fiber hood was installed for lighter weight and extra
show quality. Darryl kept the factory pearl white color.
Interior:
A Kenwood Head Unit powers a system to match the roaring engine.
Kenwood amps run the dual 10' Kicker Solo baric speakers and the
Kenwood speakers all the way around. An autometer monster tach with
a blue shiftlight sits on the dash. Razo competition TI pedals and
a Razo shift knob combine for easier shifting. Carbon fiber dash
kit and racing seats are next. Black "Bride" reclinable
Ergos are on the way from Japan. They will sit on custom sliders
and brackets to finish off the interior.

Wheels:
18 x 7.5 black opal Konig Imagines were the last to be installed.
It's a silver rim from one angle and black chrome from another.
Falken tires wrap these rims for extra road gripping power.
So what's next? You ask Darryl and he will give you a ten page report.
Some of the soon to come confirmed upgrades are the full
Tein suspension, carbon fiber dash kit, Bride racing seats, Apex
VAFC and maybe, just maybe the soon to be released Racing Hart C4.
We will be sure to post updates of Darryl's car as they come. Showstoppers
is soon to awake a Sleeping Giant that will soon be a top competitor
at shows to come.
