i live in toronto, where there are a ton of new preludes, just wondering what the stats were compared to a stock 97-99 prelude vs. stock 3.0 v6 cl??? has anyone ever taken a prelude out???

 

Their performance is darn close to identical. The Prelude Type-SH was what I was actually shopping for before I bought my 3.0. Acceleration, top speed, cornering, etc. are all really close. The CL wins by a long shot in luxury and comfort, however!

 

Barely lost w/ Venom 400 off ; but won w/ Venom 400 on.

 

i will eat a prelude and poop it out of my exhaust.

 

i beat a 97 prelude sportshift that had intake and headers and all i did was take my air silencer out. but i did lose to a 5 spd prelude.

 

You guys must have something wrong with your cars!! I beat Preludes all the time... theres one around here with headers, exhaust and intake... and all I have for performance is a removed silencer, and I beat him left and right.

 

Guy I know has an SH Prelude w/ I/H/E, he runs 14.70s......not to be derogatory, but he doesn't have to really worry about modded 3.0CL's short of headers....

 

ur right......but also the the preludes that lose could be driver difficient

 

i raced this 99 sportshift prelude 3 times. i beat him 2 times. then he shot nos on me the 3rd time and only got me by half a car length. oh yea last night i was racing a older prelude 94-97 i think i beat him on the freeway buy like 5-6-7-8 car lengths.

 

On crack u guys,

Any 5spd prelude will take ur asses out w/a decent driver. The SH will have a harder time than the S, but still, it's alot quicker.
Sport shift ludes, I've never been in one, and those are for girls anywaiz.

As for the dude who beat the 4th gen lude, it most definately was not the VTEC version. Those are even faster than the 5th gen's.

 

took the words out of mouth before i spoke


however, i've beat a few lightly modded preludes. But as for walking away from them yea right. If at most i have maybe a car or so on them by 100.

 

my ex girlfriend had a 4th gen lude vtec. i beat her stock to stock with a half a car length and she knows how to drive. but it was auto. and so is mine so that evens it out.

 

did they make a 4th gen vtec lude in auto?

 

o wait. maybe im wrong. its been a year.

 

93-96 Prelude VTECs were all manuals...

 

the quickest ive seen a 3.0 cl run stock is a 15.6 which i read motor trend magazine and was with 30 lbs. of camera and radar equipment, a passenger and a full tank of gas. so if you run with less than quarter tank of gas and minus a passenger against a prelude , youll most likely keep up with or beat the driver

 

i was thinking i was right, damn i'm impressed w/ myself

 

My friend has a 2000 prelude and when it had an intake and my car was stock we were the exact same speed. He now has headers, exhaust, cam gears, apex v-afc, high flow cat. I have all of the stuff listed on mine now and he barely beats me now by maybe a car length on the 1/4 mile.

 

Yeah they did...it was the 145 hp SOHC F22...

 

Not to start a huge debate, but I am about certain the Prelude S w/ the sohc I-4 was the 130hp or 135hp version, w/o vtec.

 

couldn't tell ya


all i know is i want to mod the shit out of one of those 4 wheel steering ludes. I remember being like 14 driving w/ my dad and seeing one haul ass through a u turn

 

I live in San Francisco, and my friend has a pretty riced out prelude, he doesn't have the SH, but he said he has the same engine, and basically everytime i launched, i launched harder, once vtec kicked in he basically lost, maybe it was a bad driver or what, but I thought preludes were alot faster then that.

 

they should be



man, i want to know something, how come all you asian kids can go around w/ your azn referrences and azn pride shit in your names. But if i was to put White pride in my name i'd be a racist?

 

good point...who knows...
