rape a lude? a stock vs. stock.. lude can put up a good fight...

just weigh costs of modding both vs. gains if you want to go that route.. and THE PRELUDE IS NOT THE OVERWEIGHT RED HEADED STEP CHILD.. you just need to know how to get rid of some weight

Lude put up a fight to a GSX ..... you serious right :chuckles:
ok you have a turbo car vs a non turbo car and if its a all wheel drive gsx....then there is no need to make any more points.

a stock gsx can do like a high 14 1/4 mile a lude will barely do mid 15s.

I think you need to do a little research on your ludes before you run your mouth. My '99 Prelude ran a 14.8 with exhaust and an intake. 5sp Preludes do not struggle to run mid 15's, if they do, the driver sucks ass...

See goes to show you how you pay attention. May be if you read my post carfully you would see that i said :closeup: stock lude...not moded lude. If you at least gonna say something rude... make sure you READ with your eyes open.

As far as ludes doing 14.8 most people have a hard time runing mid 14s due to the fact of weather and so on. So if you ran on a perfect day with nothing yes its possible. I know of plenty good drivers who can barely scratch 14.9 on a good day. It all depends on the weather. And yes a driver does go a long way.

OK, preludes and civic si's run abou the same, around 6.9 in 0-60. My friend raced a GSX without knowing it, in his Si. The guy took the X off and put it on the other side. The GSX won. I think this discussion is closed.

I thought the GSX's were the old model 1st gen eclipses though and he says a 99 eclipse gsx? I thought they only had the GS-T's in the 2nd gen eclipses.... but the preludes can take the GS-T's stock for stock im pretty sure.....
