And generally all Non-ABS CV joints can become ABS just by swapping over the ABS ring.

Have you got a picture idendifying the offending area? (Of the CV joint and on the car).

I'm pretty sure that all 4th gen CV joint are interchangeable. I think the hubs and driveshafts are the same btween a 2.0l and a 2.2 Vtec, so there'd be no reason for any 92-96 Prelude CV joint to not fit.

The only other thing I'll say is that sometimes you get whaty you pay for. I'd be very weiry paying only £11.99 for a CV joint.
