cars.com says 7.5 for a 97 3.0, im sure a 98 is about the same. 2.2 wasnt mentioned so im guessing its slower

Car-stats.com has:

Motor Trend says 8.9 seconds 0-60 for the 2.2, 16.7 1/4 mile. (should be auto)

C&D says 8 seconds 0-60 for the 2.3 Accord EX, 16.4 1/4 mile. (should be manual)

C&D says 7.8 seconds 0-60 for the 97 3.0, 16.1 1/4 mile.

Motor Trend says 7.3 seconds 0-60 for the 99 3.0, 15.7 1/4 mile.

Car and Driver tends to have whack times. They tend to either beat the fudge outa the car or they don't try much at all.

In real world applications...if you were looking at the two 3.0's side by side...how much difference is .5 sec?

Could time of the year, temp, burometric pressure, weight of driver, wind, planetary alignment make a difference?

plus...they stats they post in their magz, is an avergae of many tests. So they can have a best time of 15.5 in the 1/4, but if they ran 16 for their next run, then they would post the average (15.75), for the 2 runs. Or how ever many times they ran it. Thatz why itz always off from mag to mag.
