I would like to possibly get a Lude once spring time comes, but before I concider buying anything I have some questions for you all:

1. This car will be my daily driver, and I would prefer it be setup for circuit with the occasional drag race. I believe the base model with a LSD (ex. Quaife) is > Type SH ATTS for this type of setup. Not to mention base's have more aftermarket and are lighter. Would you guys agree with this statement?

2. What are the interior differences between the SH and Base?

3. Can you swap the brakelight-less rear deck from and SH into the Base? How about swapping the SH trunk/spoiler?

4. Do the base models still have the power options of the SH, such as pw, pdl, p.moonroof?

5. Anything I should keep an eye out for while shopping for Ludes?

I have done a lot of searching/reading, so if there are some topics I missed that can answer these questions, links are fine

Thanks in advanced everyone!

1. Yes, If I you plan to buy an LSD.

2. Not many, base does not have the courtesy lights on the doors.

3. Yes if you have the correct parts and time and tools.

4. All power options are the same, except for Canadian models.

5. Always check for rust in the normal Honda spots, check if the vehicle was maintained well.

 

1) LSD is better than ATTS in a straight line

2) Search, i'd tell you but im a 4g guy....theres a thread in the FAQ(that you should have read first) that describes all the SH vs base crayp

3) Think...of course

4) Yes, again, search

5) Watch for fender rust

lol jinx integra15...

Thanks everyone!

So what do they courtesy lights in the doors look like? Pics?

I read through the FAQ, but I don't think it said anything on the differences between Canadian models. Does anyone know the differences? I am a Canuck

 

You folks up north get some nice extras like heated seats, heated mirrors, and I think even standard leather on some models.

 

Buy a real nice 4th gen. You won't be disappointed.

 

nah gotta get the BB6. Like everyone else said, LSD &gt; SH, not many differences in interior, yes, same power options, same check for rust.

 

My friend has a BB4, and I like the BB6 better. I like the lines of it a lot and I think with an OEM lip kit, SH wheels, and a drop they look stunning.

 

5. They rip through oil. No seller will tell you the truth about how much oil the car will eat, but its worth checking the dipstick to see if the current owner at least cares about it, etc, etc.

 

I love my prelude but since I bought it I've had problems out the ***. If you want one go for it, thats what I did. But now I regret it and I want to sell it because I'm sick of dealing with it. Make sure you find a good one if you do buy one, that's just my opinion but what do I know...
