Base vs. Type SH (prelude)

[TypeRPersonality]

the only difference i can tell is the wheels, type sh sticker, and the atts. is there really a difference between the two or is ATTS that special?

Ya ATTS if you autocross its a dead weight litteraly after 70. It goes off for some reason. Also they have those welcoming lights on the doors; base don't. Sh has a long header or was it the exhaust. Um hmm there's more prob but I forget oh ya its heavier. If I had to I'd rather goto Japan and get a SiR with 4WS!! XD

umm i think sh also has a lip but not really shure about that one just seen it on one so far

ATTS, 3rd tailight delete, only came in manual, wheels, and that's it

[jdmcrx12]

isnt the sh h22 and the base is h23 right im not to familiar with preludes

[twkg]

They're both h22 and the SH doesn't come with a lip.

Here is a list of things SH has that are different:
ATTS (active torque transfer system), atts light in dash
ATTS has a cooler line from radiator
overall steering ratio SH: 15.61, base: 15.75
various additional sensors
Steering wheel has a 3rd notch (not visibal unless removed)
No 3rd brake light in the rear deck
Spoiler w/3rd brake light
5 Spoke rims
Round ring on shift boot
Round style shift knob
Courtesy lights on door panel
Different shocks/springs
Oil filter is higher up on engine block
Rocker panels and rear underspoiler painted to match the car
Type SH decal on the rear trunk
SH only came in manual

Also, the SH's exhaust manifold sits about 4" farther out than the base. Hence the reason you can't mix match a lot of exhaust parts between the two. Believe me, I've tried.

IMO, the ATTS is def. overrated. It's just another thing you have to service and it is a pain in the ass to deal with. It kicks in when you don't want it to and doesn't when you need it. So yeah... I say Base > Type SH
