They do make a 4 lug SSR Competiton, its called SSR Type-C. The 5 lug SSR Competiton, is made/sold by/for the Tire Rack.The SSR Type-C is the same rim without the center cap, and comes as a 4 lug or 5 lug...

must have been a 28mm bar like the neuspeed, which was discontinued for that reason

Larger brakes on SI & VTEC then on the S model
S come with cloth seats, SI & VTEC leather is an option (I think it may be standard for the VTEC)
S doesn't come with power door locks or A/C standard...
all I can think of for now

i find my lude to be very large inside...but then again im only 115 lbs, 5'8", so i guess u larger people have an argument.
also, there is a cup holder in my car, my 92 has a little thing that could be 'considered' a holder of a cup. u guys know what im talking about? between the back of the ebrake and the center console? also, has anyone ever found that it is a very nice 'shady' hiding spot if u just pull the holder out? i always wondered if anyone else knew about that....

The 4th gen is one kick-*** car. It looks way better, to me, than any comparable sports car out there...not spidery like the rsx or stubby like the rx7 or stupid like the probe...
I do, however, wish my car was faster...I have an h23 and very small bank account
Best thing about the prelude:It's performance in snow! I have driven in a dozen ice storms since I have had my car and even when I had my old bald street tires I never once got stuck or slid unintentionally.
Worst thing: SMALL!!!! I am nearly 6'6 and I could really use a few more inches of head/leg room. When I first got my car, I had a fairly tall mohawk...I had to cut that ****** off after the first 10 times I got it stuck in the ******* moon roof....

</TD></TR></TABLE> No... it was a Suspension-Techniques that a got dirt cheap. My other friend with a Light-Speed sway bar did the same thing too
As far as the Neuspeed sway bar is concerned... I installed one on a 5th gen a while back and it had a buff-*** bracket that you installed on the passenger side. I thought that was so it wouldn't rip off the stock bracket. I had no idea that they were still ripping off the chassis. Damn these sway bars

i drive a 90 hatch and a 92 prelude. After driving the hatch or any of my friends hatchies and i get back into the prelude it feels like a tank, but it feels nice.

Most of us has driven 99'+ Si's, GSR's, Type R's, and one thing I have to emphasize on the Lude's is even in that heavy pig, it's a pleasure to drive around town cuz of the surplus of torque from the H22/H23. I'm just a torque fan I guess.

in a quarter mile...a h22 lude vs a gsr teg with basic boltons(for both cars)...would it be close or would one of them come out ahead?im talkin theoretically with the same drive bc my friend tells me not to get a lude cuz theyre too heavy and his teg will spank it

Is yours USDM? What model? I thought non of the 92's had a cup holder. I do have the other thing but it's a toll change holder for me....
I don't really need a cup holder as I only bring drinks with screw on caps. They sit nicely right in the e-brake hole thingy...
