USDM vs JDM manifolds/exhausts - Honda Prelude Forum

DJBlobby · 07-09-2009, 02:00 PM

Hi guys, I am thinking of getting an OBX manifold and downpipe for my lude like the one in this link:

OBX Exhaust Header 92-96 Honda Prelude VTEC 2.2L NEW!!! on eBay (end time 08-Aug-09 18:33:27 BST)

Can anyone tell me whether or not this will fit a JDM BB1? Are there any differences between USDM VTECs and JDM VTECs?

Unfortunately, I have no idea about USDM ludes cos I live in the UK, and here, a UK cat is about 5 inches longer than a JDM cat and the flange on the downpipes are different. Are there differences like this with a USDM?

Cheers,
Darren
PS - here is a recent pic of my lude

Sorry to stole the thread loll

But what are the size of your wheels? Because I'm currently debating between 16 and 17 inches!

Thanks!

Thanks guys.

apexmen - they are 16" Rota Grids. I think 16s work well if the car has been lowered but otherwise, they look a bit small
