No info sorry.
Looks good. I like the wheels and the louvered bits suit it well.
Looks like a baby Gumpert.
I wonder if it has the oomph to back up those looks
That's a VX220 isnt it? Has to have "some" oomph

The guys who run it are massive classic race car fans. They really love old BMW and Porsches, just so happens that the "stance" namesake has ended up being applied to ste hatchbacks with collapsed suspension.
Yea one of the owners has an E9, they might have two E9s I cant remember but they started going heavy on the old BMWs and I assume involved in the classic BM scene over in the US to find all these feature cars.

I can't believe that Stanceworks have got something so utterly lovely on their site
Stop blinkering yourself purely because of the word Stance in the title, they're not Stancenation or Cambergang. Stanceworks do far more retro/classic stuff than modern, and most of it isn't unusably low or dangerously stretched tyres etc.

They actually work alongside manufacturers, especially BMW USA, showing off their racing heritage. They also build cars along with their friends, and race cars that they build, as well as opening up to off roading stuff too.

Plus the majority of the content is gorgeously shot, well researched and written.

Never heard of this car.

It's a virtual copy of a Mini!

Very nice, and then ruined by the gash number plate.

Very unusual supercharger (or is it some sort of weird shaft-driven turbocharger?) setup on that Prelude.

Nothing unusual about it, its a centrifugal S/C rather than a roots or twin screw type. It does behave a bit more like a turbo charger than a roots type S/C, they tend to whistle and whoosh rather than scream like a roots type.

My 9-5 Aero.......................











Only running around 320bhp at the moment but the corresponding torque means once in it's stride it's very amusing. Running billies, eibachs, strut brace, fully poly-bushed, maptun 6 pots. Plan is one day to be able to afford a quaife cool

One of the best looking facelift Preludes.

I think I've seen that car over at Performance Autoworks, those guys have built a few rotrex supercharger equipped Hondas.

I quite like the JDM Prelude 2.2 motegis but far too many are auto which is a shame but given how cheap Preludes are compared to Integras they are outstanding value.

Make changing cambelt easy!

Maserati V6

yes the fuel tank is only 9 litre and on the back wheel, which he is tempted to change to normal position with plexi glass so he still can see the carbs!
