Which gen is the BB8? - Honda Prelude Forum

NtPReLuDe · 09-19-2002, 08:54 PM

I thought the 5th is the BB6, where did BB8 come from? I'm just reading through the application list on tein's website and saw a BB8...

It's probably a 5th Gen variant. Some JDM 5th gen perhaps.

i think its the ones in japan with 160 hp, f22 engine. i think

May be the Euro one, too. And Bolivian, I'm pretty positive all 5th gens came with the H22's. The 4th gen I know had F22's, but I believe it only goes BB1-BB4. Not positive, though.

In the US they all came with H22s, however, in Japan and Europe, they came with other motors. One even came with a 2.0L if I remember correctly.

Answer to your question:

What kind of lude do you have?

5th gen BB8 has VTEC+SS+4WS

Wow. That sucks. For them, I mean. Thanks for informing me, though!

there is a JDM XI Prelude, I think it has like 140 or 160 horse. It is the bottom of the line model in Japan. It even has hubcaps..... looks funny to see hubcaps on a lude.

It does not depend on SS.
BB8 is 4ws, with or without SS.

Correct.

In the UK, "SS" is referred to as "SSS" = Sequential Sports Shift.

Check out my sig:

BB8 is 5th gen with 4WS (not necessarily auto or manual - i have a manual). so ya, i should know, cuz thats what i drive. BB9 is the SOHC model.

ShadowSonic · 09-25-2002, 07:09 AM

I still think it is odd that s model forth gen is ba8 instead of a bbx code.

I was only quoting what the other person said in their post on BB8.
