Prelude BA8/BB1 or 4th generation (1991-1996):AutoZine Technical SchoolYou might know a lot of automotive theory from reference books, but you cannot find any books or websites dealing with the latest, hottest technology that frequently mentioned in car magazines, right ?
From magazines you read technical terms such as Variable Valve Timing, Miller Cycle, ULEV engine, ESP, Torsen differential, Aluminium Space Frame chassis, Active suspension etc .... but the magazine did not explain their theory, advantages and disadvantages etc. (I bet most of the journalists actually have little knowledge about that as well) Where can you find these info ?
