S spec vs type S

[Drax]

I've been googling the stats and they all say:
Type s/s-spec prelude 217 bhp or 220 ps
EDM type R accord 209 bhp or 212 ps
JDM cl1 accord 217 bhp or 220 ps

Ah. I had them the wrong way around

ATR is 212Bhp
Type S and S spec are both 217bhp.


The S spec is a basic BB6 chassis so no 4ws and sunroof was optional. It has the same 217bhp engine however the blocks are different and it has a viscous LSD (not great but better than nothing). It came with yellow needle dials, carbon trim like the Type S and similar seats without the red stichting and Prelude logo. Spoilers and parts were optional. Weight was about 1270-1280kg

The Type S uses the ATTS system bolted to the engine, uses much more complex stuff and the front suspension is a much better design, better camber curve to cope with the torque from the ATTS. The seats have red stiching and Prelude embroidery. Weight about 1310kg because of the ATTS. However atts does not weight 40kg. More like 15-20.


Car for car. If go with the ATTS because the front suspension is great.

I removed ATTS because it was causing issues with the tunning of my suoercharger and the Helical Mfactory diff i now have does 80% of the same job with no ATTS weight.

Would i have started with a Type S if i knew i was going to remove ATTS. Yes.


S-spec wont be a disappointment. Still epic.

Literally covered everything i wanted to know haha! Thank you!

Yeah i will be very pleased if i manage to pick up the s Spec!

[RattyMcClelland]

Yep. I like to the the facts first, then put it into action then cover it in FAP sauce.
