Default I couldnt find this on this site so Im asking. How do I find out what trim my prelude is?

it is debadged and no decals to say what trim it is. all I know is that it is a 2000 honda prelude with an H22A4 engine. It handles super amazing. So how Do I find out what it is? (SI, SH, Type S, etc)

easiest way to tell- do you have courtesy lights on the door? if you do then 99% positive its an sh.. although i have seen someone swap the lights in a base model, but its not that common. and im assuming its a 5spd... if its auto (sportshift) its a base

its an h22a4 so its usdm, it will not be the type-s, your only choices will be sh or base, if you answer the questions above youll know the answer

Your choices are Base or SH....looks like a Base to me. If you have ATTS then you have an SH, it's easy to find out. Also, if your radius rods attach to the front cross member via ball joints, then you have an SH, the Base just has rubber bushings. There are many other ways to tell...

I should upgrade those and the brake lines then, since ive got drilled and slotted discs front and back. I do have to say that this car is the best one ive ever owned. better than the civic or del sol I had.

Why does it matter if you have drilled and slotted disks?

they cool better, reduce fade, better stopping.Better Cleaning of Pad Friction Material.increased heat dissipation,Cross-drilled rotors are good for fast heat dissipation and reduction in braking gasses,Slotted rotors main advantage is that they help get rid of the braking gasses between the rotor and pad. They are good for mild to medium racing applications and for the performance minded street driver. SO I would also assume the 2 together would be better because they both have their advantages along with their disadvantages. and stopping is always a good thing
