It's apparently issue 118, you guys should really pick it up and read it. I only managed to browse through it today and there is a sexy older gen lude on the front cover amongst a few other sexy Hondas that they feature in this issue alone but the lude has so much attention and detail in the engine bay it's just not funny. Almost made me think of getting the old gen lude as a toy but I'm more of a B16A/B16B/K20 Civic engine fan.

Hi Rob, thanks for headsup, haven't seen a 'lude featured in Banzai for years now. Issue 118 you say - will check it out on Saturday.

White gen 4 rocking gold Advan rg's - do it.

It's a 4th Gen in baby blue on the cover of the new Banzai Magazine but the colour didn't phase me, it was how neat the engine bay was that drew my attention.

Ta da found one pic of it for all you Prelude junkies to get a small fix. Yes the magazine is like R99.00 at CNA but perhaps the high price is worth it.

That's Big Mikes, he's posted here a few times and has in my opinion the cleanest H22 powered 4th Generation. Bisi has done a hell of a lot of tuning work on this one too.

I was so upset today, me not been a huge Prelude fanatic didn't know that our South African 5th Gen Honda didn't come with proper Vtec. Cause I went hunting and found a neat white one for 35k and then changed my mind once hearing our 4th Gen is a limp old man with a F22:'(

You're getting confused. Don't you mean 4th Gen (You make reference to a 5th Gen not having proper VTEC?)

4th Gen locally wasn't H22 correct - but there are some gem imports out there from guys who moved back from the UK.

Nothing stops one from buying a H22 motor and dropping it in a local 4th Gen though
