alright, welcome to the world of the 4th gen...the best damn interior from factory ever. its cool isnt it? but anyway, congrats...

Congratulations man, you'll definitely enjoy your Lude. :cool:

You have picked the best of the models but just wondering, you said it was a 92 Vtec model if so the H22a Vtec must of been put in afterwards and just wondering is it mounted sweet. ;) Make sure you get her checked.

And on what to do first. You could mess about with filters and exhausts etc but if you blow some life into her she will be a weapon to be reckoned with. :flash:

i havent checked the motor to see if it was a vtec the dealer jus said it was... i donthave it in my posssesion its getting serviced for a saturday pickup

I don't think they made a VTEC in '92.
They only started making them in '93.

nice ride...

check out the car before you take delivery, make sure it's vtec.
also.. .check out hondaprelude.com, they have an article on converting the 4gen to manual... food for thought

yes, vtec didn't come in 1992, although it was invented in 92 i think it only came with the NSX and came into the prelude in 93... what you might have is either 130HP SOHC version or the 160HP DOHC SI prelude.

the 4th gen are difficult to come by where i'm at, they go real fast. whatever you get be a proud owner of one of the best cars ever!

Just go pop your head under the hood and if it has DOHC VTEC on the cam cover shez sweet.
If it does have this on the cover check out the the manufacture date as it may be that it is a late 1992 stamp date but an actual 93 model and your home and hosed.
But if it is an earlier model with a slammed in engine as long as it has H22a stamped on the side and every thing has been put in hunky dory jump in the sucker and drive away with a big smile on your dial. :flash:

actually, i believe vtec came out before 92, i might be wrong, but i thought it came out before that, 92 is when it was brought here in the nsx... i think...

yes vtec came out with the NSX, when was the NSX released? but it came on the prelude on 93 and up

vtec came out in 91... the USDM prelude didnt get it till 93 but the jdm 92's offered vtec
