Me vs 2001 Yellow Type R - Honda Prelude Forum

The Oreo · 12-07-2006, 10:11 AM

Me = Stock except jdm tranny + LSD

Him = Exhaust, headers, clutch, flywheel, intake..

I lost the race.. We went from 3rd to the top of 4th.. Since we couldnt catch a light.. His rear bumper was at my front bumper at the end of the race.. We pulled over, and talked..

He loved my car.. And said it was quicker than he expected.. He also thought I was lying about my mods..

But I showed him there was nothing done!! I love type R's.. Ok I need to mod my car!! After the swap..

damn street racers!!

ludehawk · 12-07-2006, 04:28 PM

you should have beaten him *shrug*

bigtimlikewhoa · 12-08-2006, 12:25 PM

^^^ how? those type R's are quick man..

The Oreo · 12-08-2006, 01:30 PM

^^ exactly.. I would like to see how I fair against a stock one though.. probably still get edged out.. but this guy took a while to get his rear bumper to my front bumper.. With his mods... I'm proud of my car.. I thought I was gonna get ripped

bigtimlikewhoa · 12-09-2006, 12:50 AM

yea.. the only way i could think of is that the guy can't drive.. My friend down my street has a type R teg with only a CAI and he always whoops the **** outta my other friend's lude with I/H/E and pulleys. And his lude's pretty quick.

I remember having a modded ITR wipe my ass going from 287N onto 80E, I was running around 100 and he walked by me and kept going. Still love those cars just seriously dated and a huge risk to being jacked on you.

DeadFish · 12-10-2006, 11:29 AM

yup... friend of mine had 4 integras stolen. Northern NJ area... but ofcourse.

not that quick haha. i've never had a problem with a bolt on itr *shrug*
and i've never had a problem with one on the track.
they run mid-14s with bolt-on's but we still trap higher =)

bigtimlikewhoa · 12-10-2006, 01:47 PM

i donno man.. those people u talk about with type R's probably can't drive their cars too well.. stock VS stock Type R will kick prelude's ass.. i don't know what you're talking about not that quick..

ludehawk · 12-10-2006, 11:10 PM

The ITR has a LSD, much lower curb weight, and equal horsepower. Drivers being equal, the ITR would win. Even with equal hp ratings the B motors don't have as much drivetrain loss as our motors.

oh and saying they have as much horsepower? GO find some dyno numbers. They're alot lower. like 150whp.

on the street w/street tires and knowing how to launch an LSD DOESN'T make THAT much of a diff.

the race is CLOSE but you should be able to edge them out stock for stock. now if the itr knows how to drive, then maybe they'll edge you out *shrug*

they're not god's savior of honda's, they're not THAT fast and they're not worth the idol'izing over.

ludehawk · 12-12-2006, 10:52 PM

the POINT is, LUDES trap HIGHER than ITRs. This means keith should have been stronger 3/4 than the integra. therefor, he should have won.

precisionelite · 12-13-2006, 08:48 AM

Your right about the LSD, if you can launch it won't make much difference. Did some research on honda-tech seems they make about 157-163 about the same as us.

The Oreo · 12-13-2006, 08:57 AM

Well.. We didnt go from a launch.. I wish we had of.. it was from a 70mph roll.. By the top of 4th he finally had his rear bumper by my front.. He had mods also.. He wasnt stock like I am.. And I have LSD... He said that he thought he was going to blow my doors off.. I knew he wouldnt..

I want to race a STOCK one..

prelude auto's put down that little lol
you SHOULD be 170+ guaranteed in a lude.
oh did you look at the tq too? 115-125 compared to 140 with us.

EX99 · 12-13-2006, 02:32 PM

ITR's don't have equal power to us, not with torque or horsepower. However they are significantly lighter than us ~(400lb's) and have quick ass gears compared to us.

Ludehawk, i'm not in anyway accusing you of being a liar, but I have never heard of a 5th gen running 14's stock, let alone a 14.6.

telram · 12-14-2006, 10:39 PM

I used to have an ITR before buying my 99 Lude. I used to 1/4 mile it too, same track where I take my lude, same time of year.

Stock ITR: 14.5 @ 92
Lude I/E/17in Rims: 15.4 @ 97
Lude ^ + 55HP ZEX: 14.4 @ 100

and for the record the ITR got jacked
