Re: prelude vti r coupe (texx)
vtir...isn't that JDM? IIRC the vti-r had a SOHC in it...
EDIT: No wait...I found a whole ton of them in the australian market. They're DOHCs definitely. Don't know anything else about them tho. As to why they would be in the states is beyond me.

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by autoweb.com.au »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">The 1997 Honda Prelude continues the sporty coupe's proud tradition of technical innovation, distinctive styling and dynamic performance.
The new Prelude features a world-first drive system - Active Torque Transfer System (ATTS) - for superior cornering performance in a front-drive car. Prelude also features a first-in-class Sport Shift automatic transmission with a semi-automatic sequential gearshift for sports driving.Refinement and comfort have been enhanced, with a stronger, longer, quieter body and improved headroom and legroom for rear-seat passengers.
And the Prelude is better value. The 1997 range opens with the Prelude Si, which is introduced at the same price (\$39,550) as the superseded Prelude S but with extensively upgraded equipment, including a 2.2-litre 118kW DOHC engine, dual SRS airbags, air conditioning and anti-lock brakes (ABS).
Next step up the range is the Prelude VTi-R, powered by a new version of Honda's class-leading 2.2-litre DOHC VTEC engine producing a massive 143 kW. This model is introduced at the old Prelude Si price - \$44,850 - despite equipment upgrades including dual SRS airbags and climate control air conditioning. At the top of the range is the Prelude VTi-R ATTS, equipped with Honda's groundbreaking Active Torque Transfer System. This innovative drive system redistributes the drive force during cornering to ensure virtually neutral handling. Despite the improvements and extra equipment, the VTi-R is priced at \$48,850 - \$4,500 cheaper than the old Prelude VTi-R.
The new-generation 4-speed automatic transmission boasts Honda's Grade Logic Control and the new Sport Shift semi-automatic gear change, which gives the driver the pleasure of shifting gears sequentially like a race driver. And for the first time, automatic transmission becomes available on the powerful Prelude VTi-R.For those who prefer a manual, the revised 5-speed manual gearbox and clutch now provide even easier shifting and smoother, quieter operation.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Re: prelude vti r coupe (xthephilx)
If you go to preludecrazy.com you can compare models from around the world. It is kinda cool to see what was available what years in what country. I wish they would have transmission codes on there though. There is another thread on here where this guy has a s2a4 transmission and it is bugging the **** out of me that I cannot find its orgin.
