EBPlude · 02-24-2002, 03:25 PM

who would win in a race??, a stock 01 prelude 5speed vs a 00 civic si w/ i/h/e/vafc.

redlude2k1 · 02-24-2002, 03:28 PM

prelude if it is a 5 spd.

Prelude 200hp

civic si w/i/h/e vafc ~175hp

prelude will kill si

Blue___Lude · 02-24-2002, 03:37 PM

no contest stock for stock if you have a 5 speed...unless honestly you can't drive for shiet

with i/h/e + vafc, you should still win unless, again, you can't drive for shiet

joedaddy · 02-24-2002, 04:46 PM

not sure...

but IB4L

I think it would be close given equal drivers.

ice1cube · 02-24-2002, 06:05 PM

it would be close =P

i have a friend with an si with i/e and w/o my intake i could take him easily even w/o launching

headers dont' do very much and vafc just lowers their engagement point and what not so i would probably say the lude but it'd be a nice race

PreludeVTEC01 · 02-24-2002, 06:06 PM

how many decals does this SI have, lol....but im gonna have to say Prelude....

Blue___Lude · 02-24-2002, 06:13 PM

From my experience

Mines (stock) vs my friend's Si w headers

1 car victory in my favor

On fwy vs same guy, no contest

My same friend (Si) with i/h/e + cams vs another friend with a lude 5spd with intake

Close

My friend with the Si launched at 5k while the other guy didn't...the Si had the jump and kept the lead (the lude's bumper was at his door) till 4th. 4th gear, the lude simply walked from the Si...no contest after 4th gear. I was surprised because I thought the Si had him...keep in mind there was 3 ppl total in the Si and 2 ppl in the lude

But if you can beat him off the line, you shouldn't have a problem...unless he has a b20 block like my same friend with the Si has now

ice1cube · 02-24-2002, 06:33 PM

b20? crvtec? or just crv =P crvtec is scary stuff

redlude2k1 · 02-24-2002, 06:36 PM

The End....

Yup. CRV VTEC

It's a b20 block with a b16 head...omfg the thing pulls!!

The torque and pull on the thing is amazing...

*sigh, now I'm forced to go FI just to counteract it...

o0OO0o · 02-25-2002, 12:42 AM

moved.

aklucsarits · 02-25-2002, 10:04 PM

What color is the Prelude? The Prelude will win as long as it is Electron Blue Pearl... Oh wait, what if the Si is EBP too?? That would be close...

Instead of asking for guesses as to which car is faster, why don't you just race, and let us know how it goes?

BIGDADEPUMP · 02-26-2002, 02:53 PM

Does he have 100mph Altezza's cause my friend did on his si and he beat me like a drum until I bought 101mph Altezza's for my 01 Lude.

One question for you Princess???

ARE YOU SKEERD OF A CIVIC?

I really hope ur joking.... don't sell a prelude short man.... I've got just an intake and pullies on my lude, and the weld on muffler that doesn't do ****..... i walk the hell out of si's.... it's not even funny how easy it is to beat them. I could launch at 2 grand and not spin the tires and still kill them. they're slow

Vision Lude · 03-09-2002, 09:51 AM

Civic Si's w/ those mods might be able to beat a Prelude. Believe me there are some people that CAN drive their SI's

NirVTEC · 03-09-2002, 10:13 AM

I think if the SI has a very good driver it will win. I have seen kids with i/h/e run mid 16's. My friend hit 15.7 with a removed resonator in his 00 SI. At the same track and same night my friend was running high 15's-low16's with i/e/p on his 5th gen. I think an SI with those mods is a solid mid 15 car and could even bust a 15.2ish with a balls out driver.
Most SI are driven by glorified ricers, but if you get a good driver in one, they're not such easy prey.

Neither would kill each other that's for sure.

I will kill an SI(even it's it's faster, I'll shoot at him with a potato-gun)

h7y · 03-09-2002, 10:36 AM

with those mods, from experience no. My friend is a very good driver, he taught me to drive. He's got about 4-5k of NA goodies in his car and only ran a 14.9. Given it was a bad track day. But still.

At about 3k worth of mods, him and I were dead even. But i/h/e and vafc on si, in my experience doesn't cut it.

I would guess those are rough flywheels numbers. Neither are correct WHP!
