You're both right. Plastigauge comes in different colors for different engine requirements. You could probably get away with using a different color for your motor, but the result will essentiall be the same. Once everything is bolted into spec you *should* come out with the same (or at least very similar) reading. For a Honda, I'd go with the green Plastigauge like Arnel mentioned. Just look at Honda's bearing clearance specs and find the Plastigauge that best fits that requirment. After that, it should be a piece of cake.
