Congrats on the purchase. Should replace your power steering cooler before it rusts through and leaks fluid. Also, 5-lug brake rotors on a 4-lug car?

Ye sorry i replaced the cooler when i had the bodywork at the front done. As for the brakes don't worry, i was sent the wrong ones and had the right ones sent out but it was the only pic i had of the discs before they went onto the car.

Hey i just traded my integra for a 92 prelude and im planning on fixing it up.. but i'm new to this and was wondering what does bb4 and that stuff mean?? sorry if its a stupid question but i'm just trying to learn

armydude2006 · 08-27-2009, 08:21 PM

oh yeah one more dumb question whats obd1 and so forth?? sorry again for dumb questions just trying to learn

jjayokocha · 08-28-2009, 07:07 AM

Well the BB4 part is the model number. BB1 & BB4 are similar i think they are both 92-96. Difference is the BB4 is the jap version lightweight model, lsd gearbox as standard & around 200bhp.

um bb is the chassis code ppl.

and obd is a standard of wiring. obd2 has a diagnostic port i belive were you can hook up a troubleshooting device and it will tell u wut sensor is malfunctioning and such.

Ye got the car very cheap because the owner had hid the rear of a jeep so bonnet, headlight & rad needed replaced. It was then left sitting in their garden in a mess for 2 years until i bought it. All fixed and the upgrades doen and the car is flying with no problems at all.

Supposed to be around 1200kg's where as the standard model is about 1400kg's. One thing is there is no sunroof so that's a start. Anyone else know what makes it lighter?

Got it was n polished other day before taking it out for a run, along with my other cars.
