Stunningly clean Prelude. Torque GT are brilliant. It's who I want to use when I get round to importing a car.

Agree it does need to be lower, but that goes for any standard Honda I think.

Looking forward to seeing where you take this.

Well, I think that spoiler is much better than on TypeS. I also think that normal LSD is better than ATTS, so in my opinion S Spec > TypeS. Also, gauges and other stuff is better and more uncommon than on TypeS

Anyway, great car! To be hones, I always loved this version. That's why mine is S Spec Wannabe (I already managed to collect Spoiler, Gauges and Gearbox from S Spec) to you have my congrats for this buy :D

Humm. We will see soon enough. The s spec uses a viscous diff, Not the better helical diff. I'm putting an updated helical diff in my Type S so I'll be able to do a direct comparison between atts and a diff that behaves like atts. S spec gauges are the same as the type s.

Nope. They are not. Font is different. S Spec uses the same font as ITR Gauges

Type S also had those on later 98 spec models, seen a few. I actually prefer the italic font.

My fav spoiler is the flush fit.. mugen... Type s is a bit skinny and s spec doesn't look wide enough.

The colour and condition of this is amazing, tho I think my Lude looked better :-)
However I would def say that this has a better drive than a UK vti, even tho I haven't driven one...
Out of curiosity how much is it to import one these days.... I'm guessing close to 5k all in??
