Re: 2001 prelude
hehe. not even 150? sheesh! my 2k daewoo lanos (modded of course) only puts
out 190hp, but i can zoom past 150 to about 165... only done that on a
closed track (DONT STREET RACE.. ITS NOT WORTH LOOSING YOUR CAR AND
LICENSE). in texas, if youre caught racing like that, they take you to jail,
suspend your license, and tow your car, and lock you up for 6 months, no
questions asked. if you must speed, go to a closed track. also consider
modding that prelude. im considering dropping a 2k prelude motor in my
daewoo

Do you know what the city and highway gas mileage is on this car?
What's the biggest difference between the regular Prelude and the Type SH?

You should join the Air Force and get stationed in Germany where going
that fast is safer due to drivers who don't stay in the fast lane, AND
they don't have cops looking for revenue. I know, I took an SL230 for
a drive to Stuttgart (Porche and Mercedes museums) and Luxembourg.
That's the only good thing about living in a socialist country.
Everyone pays so much in taxes that extra road taxes/fees are a moot
point.

Re: 2001 prelude
The biggest difference is that Type SH uses Honda's Active Torque
Transfer System. Which is an electronic type of limited slip differential.
There are a few trim differences (i.e. wheels) but other than the ATTS the
cars are mechanically the same.

Re: 2001 prelude
The biggest difference is that Type SH uses Honda's Active Torque
Transfer System. Which is an electronic type of limited slip differential.
There are a few trim differences (i.e. wheels) but other than the ATTS the
cars are mechanically the same.

Okay, people, that's my wife up there that made the original post. We went
to pick up the 2001 Prelude today. We bought it from a guy who had to sell
his Acura NSX and the Prelude to make ends meet. It has 13,2000
(ridiculously low for that model year in my opinion), it has been garaged
all the time, and it cost us $16,100. Every thing on the car is immaculate.
The engine is ultra clean and has been using Mobil 1 for 6,000 miles
according to the guy. Everything is original. The only thing I worry about
is the battery, since batteries have a planned lifetime. Hopefully it will
start giving me indications that it needs replaced so that I can get an
Optima sealed battery for it. I drove it home 50 miles, and it drives
flawlessly.
I hope we didn't pay too much.
