Default Re: 1993 prelude questions

oh nooo...... want the 2.2 vtec faster than the 2.3 by around 1sec i`ve
seen.

not keen on a JDM model (dispite it being better than the UK spec) due to
parts avaiblitity. i would be correct in believing that JDM is slightly
different to the UK available parts?

thanks for the url - i`ll go have a look now.

do the preludes rust, or have a common fault? (suspension bushes maybe,
weird tyre wear?). my 1993 civic is starting to rust around the archs, and
not keen on the prelude doing the same. ie - maybe they galvanised the
body/rust proofed it better?
