hiya Guys,
This is my first post on here, so bear with me please?
My son and I bought a 2.2 Vtec Lsi JDM Prelude (1992-3) , imported to UK , about 6 months ago. The car was in tip top condition, but a few problems have arisen.

lots of things have been fixed, but today he has phoned me to say his clutch has packed in----pedal just goes to the floor. He is living 150 miles away from me.
Does anyone know if this car has a cable or hydraulic clutch?
He was meant to be comin home tomorrow and I need to advise him quickly about what to do.
Is this sudden failure something common, like a hose breaking, or cylinder failure? I would love to know any opinions anyone may have.?

 

cable.

Whaaaaat?

They're hydraulic aren't they?

 

Thankyou Kal, that was a fast reply, almost as fast as the car itself LOL?????????
I was hopin it would be cable, since he might be able to get that fixed today.

 

Oh dear . A difference of opinion.
this car has a british 1992 registration no., but I think it is a 1993 model, but not certain. definitly 2.2 vtec lsi

They have cable linkages but they are a hydraulic type clutch. I believe all H series transmissions are hydraulic. Usually you only find the cable ones from 1991 and older.

 

Bugger it!!!!!!!!!!!! my son has just taken it to a garage , and its the master cylinder thats gone. Quoted about £330 to fix it. Sorry to bother you all, but thanks anyway.
