Actually the gsr would lose to the prelude, provided that it is a 5 speed prelude vtec. Unfortunately Honda made auto preludes w/ vtec sport shift and they are butt slow and that is what some gsr owners may have raced but the prelude would walk the gsr. The gsr can't use the weight excuse either because: 1. the prelude's ample torque makes up for it and 2. the horse power to weight ratio is still better in the prelude than in the gsr. Now the ITR would walk the prelude vtec but not the jdm prelude type-s, but the jdm ITR would take the Jdm prelude type-s (both 220ps = 217hp).
