Best prelude I've owned so far. Didn't think that ATTS would be this good and was scared to chuck it in to a corner but Ratty drove it and saw how controllable it was. Also all the suspension parts have been replaced and poly bushed so that also helps with the handling.
Interior is also such a better place to be, rear seats are soo mint. Looks like no one has ever sat there. Yellow needles are nice touch and reminds me of the DC2 needles.
VTEC cross over is smooth and can hardly feel the VTEC kick in like I used to feel in my old car(s). This has been properly converted so although the speedo still reads in kph I still have VTEC in first and top speed of 112mph+.

As with old cars there some bad points. There is a slight bubbling of rust in the arches, which needs to be sorted before it gets worse. Honda navigation had been removed, so the touch screen doesn't work. The mileage was advertised as 130k but it's actually 158k. Still drives smooth and without any problems so I can't knock it down.

Things to do:
I have Motegi sides so will need to get them sprayed black and then I can put then on.
Will need to plug the Honda navigation system at the back and start it up. Might hook up a rear view camera as well.
Retro fitted headlights to be put on the car.
S-Spec spoiler will go on as I think the high rise is a bit too much.
Lastly, the rust!!!

Love the car to bits. 8-) :twisted: :D Sorry only one photo for now..

Thank you Guys. Yes I always wanted the Type-S or S-Spec. And this one came up at the right time and it also has the things I wanted like the bonnet spoiler, grill etc.

Phil, when I saw it in the add, I thought I will defo get rid off the spoiler but now it's growing on me. :oops: The spoiler looks like the DCR/ATR spoiler. :twisted:
