the accord euro-R is the only one you could be talking about, and its the same HP as a type-S lude
and a prelude is slightly lighter than an accord, so it would be a drivers race
like you said doesnt matter cause they never saw our shores
and i have never lost to an accord V6 period
even the 03 manual tranny V6 (15.1 ET stock)
that was the closest race out of the accord V6 bunch, but I still burned him by a good amount.
and what is your VIN, because it contains the "origin" code which tells you where that car's final assembly was done.
ALL prelude's are sayama japan, as well as the S2000 (same factory
)
here..im looking at my helms right now:
JHMBA814*R%000001
thats a sample VIN from a f22 lude
the * is a check digit which doesnt apply here
the % is the origin factory code...
what do u have in the % on your VIN
~boomer
the 1/4 numbers i've seen on the euroR accord were in the 14.5 range......but that's not USDM
i recently saw a 100% stock 03 v6 with 4300 miles on it run a 14.7 at the track.....dude driving it was 57 and just wanted to see what he could get out of it......as far as the weight, the 4th gen ludes aren't that heavy but the 5th gens aren't light and the SH is a fatass relatively speaking...sure the lude is more performance oriented, but why do you think a 95 h22a will bolt right up to the cb7 chassis....they're just versions of the same thing...one is sportier, the other is more family oriented......both are great platforms though.......we can all get along.....:naughty:
