I had a 4g JDM Si VTEC lude for 3 or 4 years, lovely car.
I was tempted to look for a 5g but then a EP3 turned up.
From memory the 4g got a facelift in 94-
new rear seats (no arm rest storage compartment)
drivers armrest
chrome front lights (early ones had black inners- which looked better IMO)
different alloys
EL dials (very sought after)
The 4ws chassis is a BB1 and the 2ws a BB4, when talking about the 2.2 VTEC motor. Generally BB4s were sunroofless, but could be spec'd to anything really.
The turning circle on the 4ws was great, mine did chuck a wobbler and display the warning light (which then resulted in me fishtailing at motorway speeds = brown pants. It was a simple fix though- solder had cracked in the 4ws ECU.
JDM cars had 197 bhp (think they're 100 ron fuel helped though) all UKDM 4g had 185. JDMs also had 1 piece headlights, very sought after again. Although they were terrible, I could leave them on full and no one would flash, like candles! lol
I had mine lowered on KYB shocks and Tein springs, good tyres and never had any problem with understeer TBH.
Any questions about 4g's just give me a shout.
That was mine...
