i am looking into buying a 98 prelude and the guy doesn't know if it is base or SH, is there some sort of number on the tranny or anything like that i can look for to make sure. if this has been answered please link me.
-thanks

 

look at the wheels

straight 5-spoke are SH wheels, also has painted underbody and a spoiler

leather wrapped shift ****

those are simple things to look at

 

on the inside door panels there will be a courtesy light.

spoiler with LED strip.

no third brake light in rear window

straight spoke 5 spoke rims

when you start the car the ATTS light will appear in the dash. then go away.

leather wrapped shift ****.


cant think of anything else right now.

oil filter is in the most gawd-awful place possible..

look behind the IM towards the driver side shock tower.

 

dam guys thanks a bunch, that is exactly the stuff i wanted to know.

 

There is a Type-SH sticker on the back .

 

Don't know how convievient it would be to look but the ATTS unit is bolted onto the back of the block towards the driver's side. It is 80#s of crap that replaces the base model's intermediate shaft. So I think that you can see if it if you turn the wheels all the way to the right and try to look behind the front driver's side wheel. Otherwise like DsR said look for the oil filter.

Also remmeber all SH models are 5spd. If some one says they have an SH and its an auto....

unless of course they did an auto swap

Also there are to metal cooling lines that go over the transmission, those are ATTS cooling lines.
