Didn't know she had it in her - Honda Prelude Forum

MR.CLIFFORD · 02-24-2002, 03:39 PM

Today this civic pulled up next to me and it is a local guy that I know. We were talking through the light and we hit it when the light turned green. I squeeled my tires on first and chirped them going into second and I couldn't believe it. I drive an auto. I beat his A$$ but that isn't the point. I was so happy that I squeked em I about had to pull over. I never really get on the car so I was impressed. I pulled over to talk to the guy and I waved him over, but he just kept on driving. I want a manual. I am glad the guy didn't have any mods!

what kind of lude do you have? S or SI?

ludeboy95 · 02-25-2002, 06:15 AM

Dude, I have a 95 SI auto. Intake and exhaust only. It haulls. I bark em' hard in second. I can hang with some Civic si's and some tegs. VW's don't stand a chance. I love my SI.
Just because it's an auto, doesn't mean it won't break. Be careful.

It's an SI. Real low miles. Can't wait to see what it will do with turbo. I am saving my bones!

Wait till you have a manual, and can spin nasty into 2nd, chirp the hell out of 3rd, and chirp 4th....That's cool.

I am spending about 1500 in the next two weeks on my car. I am thinking, "screw the savings and get a loan!" Then I can do it all at once. I can't wait for the day!

If you don't have a car payment. My friend did that with his 89 hatch...$10k 24 month personal loan for building...Keep the savings for other things or problems...

It is nice to work for the bank. I get discounted rates on auto loans. I am looking at 2% for up to 48 months! Might just have to do that! My car is paid off!

What tires do you have? Aftermarket clutch?

I lost the chirping 3rd when I got rims with better tires.

Dunlop SP5000(215/50/15), RPS Turbo Carbo Claw(St.III)/lightened flywheel. Believe me, I can't always bark 4th, but can chirp 3rd shifting at 6000. 2nd of course is a no-brainer...I wish it didn't spin as much into 2nd because I lose momentum when I shift hard, and it steals a tenth or 2 from my 1/8 mile time.
