GTI MK5 VS Honda prelude
 

Well I have a DSG vw gti mkv with apr stage 2 and some other mods, pushing around 280-290 hp to the crank. This honda prelude was done up nicley no fart can, a nice exaust and looks like it was done up properly not like a ricer like most of the cars on here. Wasn't even a competition but I didnt expect it to be but atleast he was a good sport, he gave me a honk and a friendly wave wile passing me when I was turning.

stock lude are wood:p prob was just lowered.. good win

22 = wood.

heh , preludes are slow , my old b16 teg used to chew those up and a wee16 in a teg is slow too lol , oh well ls motor was shot so threw in the cheapest thing to find

Talk about bs, your b16teg can't even run 14sec 1/4mile, so i wouldn't talk.
If you can beat a prelude, then it was probably a base model f22 or h23. Don't mess with h22 sr-v.

my buddy's eg civic beat an h22 lude by about 2 or 3 lengths. it was the most recent (OBD-II) bodystyle lude and it had a CAI and fart can. his civic ran 15.5 at St Thomas. i run 15.2 @ 90mph at shannonville. i have a 1st gen LS motor with short ram, fart can, punched cat (w/stock 1-3/4 pipe) and I have 410 thou on my motor, basically a shitty setup. ludes are nice cars, but theyre nothin special stock. point being you dont have to run 14s to beat an h22 lude.

^^you do if your racing my lude, i ran 14.9 at st.thomas. Im aiming for 13.9 next summer for on my new motor and gutted interior

you do know St Thomas times are always faster than other tracks. the traction there is amazing. take ur lude to cayuga, nuthin against ur car, but i bet low 15s. i know a guy with a 93 teg w/ a b16, its slow as hell, but ran 15.3 at st thomas. he broke a driveshaft there cause the tires didnt spin, lol

this reply is only directed to those Prelude haters out there

Hi my name is TPC. listen to all you Civics + other cars with no style sedans , what's the point of having a fast civic if it looks like fuken dirty old Kleanex box with wheels that your mother drives to pick up some milk from the corner store, I'd rather be driving a nice sexy lude that looks and feels like a real sports car.


hehehehe.. :laugh:

Exactly... "looks and feels" like a real sports car, but really isn't a sports car. 15 second FWD pigs aren't considered sports cars in my opinion.

:laugh: you do have to admit they look alright

try integra

preludes are slow. let me know if you want to race a h22 eg that has 180whp and runs 13s all day.

prelude power is in the top end ... i guess mainly because its honda and its heavy

hey I will race anything even if I know I will loose....

Preludes don't look too bad, (and infinetely better than a civic) but yeah they are slow.

this thread is hilarious, wow!!

Doesn't it suck more though that you drive some sexy lude sports car and you get eaten alive off the line by " fuken dirty old Kleanex box with wheels that your mother drives to pick up some milk from the corner store "
and you can't do anything about it?

I'm not a hater, H22 motors are awesome got some potential, i had an H22 civic and i loved it, beautiful torque, pulls hard on the highway and gave it to alot of cars. H-B plate makes it even faster. But in its original form in the prelude its too slow.

Preludes i admit do look nice, if they were faster they'd be a more popular car

I rather have some luxury them some crappy plastic car... honda toyota have gone down hill the interiors are complete CRAP! Mazda is still great..... For 2000 $ I can get 480 hp turbo upgrade, I seriously would never buy a honda or toyota the interior quality just suck.

preludes r aaiiee i got a 3rd gen prelude i got on sale ne 1 want lemme no

acura and lexus are still great with interiors :smilie_da
