Re: THE OFFICIAL Prelude Chassis Codes Thread (mgags7)
Is that only true for USDM Preludes?
According to this site (which I really have no verification of its accuracy),
http://alljapanesecars.com/vie...c=BB4
, there is a BB4. But these are all JDM Preludes.
According to this site (which I really have no verification of its accuracy),

, there is a BB4. But these are all JDM Preludes.

@BB4
the black prelude in your gallery is not a bb4 the bb4 was just built as a RHD and with h22a on your pictures i see a LHD and a SI gauge
i have a JDM RHD BB4 and my interieur (seats,climate control) looks different i have black/red seats and no sunroof

I doubt your list is complete, and here is a BB4 VIN should you doubt people like Japanpower
and as pentaq said, there is also a BB3... i know this first hand because i drive one.

Re: THE OFFICIAL Prelude Chassis Codes Thread (arisen devil)
who can tell me why the bb4 has a different vin plate then other preludes from edm or usdm ?
my vin dont starts with JHMBB
im from germany and my honda dealer never seen this before
@arisen devil
bb3 is a very good car its a liitle bit slow but mileages over 200.000 mls are no problem for this engine. im driving a bb3 too for winter season since 6 years and it runs very good never had problems with it it has now over 140k and my girlfirend has a white bb3 that we imported from italy and her car has only 15.000 mls (23.000 km) and its a 1994
my bb4 is my summer car since this year with 30.000 mls . in the first few days it was a little bit hard to drive with a RHD in germany but now i love it

Re: THE OFFICIAL Prelude Chassis Codes Thread (Japanpower)
European dealers didn't see much
Japan VINs are not VINs in the meaning of international standards. Maybe because those cars are not meant to leave the country at all?
I wonder how it looks with Australian cars (I mean Japanese ones produced for Australian market)

Re: (bb4)
hi here are 2 pics from my bb4 i bought the bb4 on 12.12.05 but now it is sleeping in the garage i bought it in the uk with 30 k
the car weight is 2720 lbs and has no ABS no Airbags no 4ws and no sunroof just LSD and a fantastic fast engine
the seats are looking in reality a lot of better than on the pictures
im looking for a gauges that shows miles and kilometers and would trade it against my JDM gauge with mile converter the gauge was a 200 km that is converted into 200 mls

Re: (Japanpower)
Crazy stuff, my bb1 jdm front clip had no abs also, i've never seen that steering wheel before, the one from my clip is leather and has 4 horn buttons and no srs.

Re: (bb4)
thank you
but i have to replace the steering wheel because its very hard to enter the prelude from the right side
the cockpit on the right side is smaller then on a LHD prelude
@BB4
your prleude looks very nice
do you have rota´s on it ? which size is it ? do you still have 205-55-15 on it ?
looks really nice i think my bb4 will have the same style
deep , black wheels and carbon fiber lip PERFECT
