    Default you know you own a 4th gen lude when.....

    -you know you own a 4th gen when you search "prelude jdm" or "prelude bb4" on ebay..

    -when you see another 4th gen and the first thing you ask the owner, "vtec?"

    -when you tell somebody you have 2 bars left in gas..

    -when you have a 94 Accord lip

    -when you notice a 4g in a 1,ooo ft of you, when knowingly you prolly wouldnt have seen it if you didnt have a prelude..

    -you know when you own a 4g when you can only fit a napkin in ur glove box

    -you kno you own a 4g when you put ur cup between ur seat and door panel LOL

    -when ricers burn off stoplights because they think your reving at them, however its only bouncing idle..

    - and this has to be a winner. You know you own a 4th gen when your ash tray is bigger than your glove box..

    - and the finally LOL: Someone asked me if it was a Toyota Supra and I replied with "No, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night..."

    You know you're a 4th Gen Prelude fanboi when...

    You actually put Premium gas in it like the owners manual says

    You think the rear seats are useful

    You think it's the same as a S2k, only with a hardtop and FWD

    You think it's faster than other Honda's because of the massive .4 liter difference in engine size over a 1.8 Honda motor. Even despite it being in a bigger, heavier (yet less practical) package.

    You think ... Ah fuck it. You get the idea.

    since i own a 4th gen i:

    go NUTS when i see another one...my girl's getting sick of me screaming PRELUDE!
    i always fill up on premium..hi there $60 fillup
    no glove box..but u can still put a pack of ciggs in there and close it shut..it works.
    no cup holder..ive mastering shifting, steering with no PS and holding a cup @ the same time.

    does anyone else notice how rapidly ur gas guage declines after the half pt mark...but thats all hondas.

    the guages are sick
    and finally

    240's have the same problem, and I have never understood this. But just go to e-Bay motors and search "din-sized cupholder", buy one, install, problem solved.


    Edit: No need to put "JDM BB4 Prelude Cupholder" or anything like that.

    actually not really...h23 can get better gas mileage only with F series trannies and specifically the f22b2 tranny..loong ass gears.. right now i think with conservative driving i can squeeze out 350 to a full tank.
    h23's gears maybe tab bit longer than h22s..but by all means they are short.

    I've never had a problem with the cupholder, I put mine there and make the passenger hold theres, lol.

    I loved my F22, in stock form, its one of the best honda motors to boost imo.

    We'll see how the F20A does with boost soon.

    Wait... Are you talking to me?

    A.) My car is sexier than any 3rd, 4th or 5th Gen. If you think otherwise you're a fanboi.

    B.) Funny how the same thread about how great they are, you mention finishing building one because it blew up.

    C.) Your girl wants my cock. True story

    D.) Eh, do I really need to continue?

    You know you're a ricer when:

    -when you search JDM or the Japanese code for your car on eBay.

    -When you mention VTEC.

    -When you can't buy gas.

    -When you have an Accord lip.

    -When you notice other ricers 1000ft ahead of you.

    -When you carry napkins in your car.

    -When your car doesn't have cup holders.

    -When you make your car idle weird.

    - When you use your ash tray.

    - When you dream of people complimenting your car.

    Says the guy that drives a... Miata? Lol

    When u carry napkins?... I don't get it?..but then again I don't carry napkins

    Cup holders? A lot of cars don't have cup holders or barely have them.. Cup holders are mainly an American thing it seems..


    Marcus: Hey man where-where-where's your cup holder?
    Mike Lowrey: I don't have one.
    Marcus: you mean you don't have one? 80,000 dollars for this car and you ain't got no damn cup holder?
    Mike Lowrey: It's $105,000 and this happens to be one of the fastest production cars on the planet... Zero to sixty in four seconds, sweetie. It's a limited edition.
    Marcus: You damn right it's limited. No cup holder, no back seat. Just a shiny dick with two chairs.
