Grand Prix v Si - Honda Prelude Forum

jsmooney · 04-25-2002, 08:37 PM

Guys, I was coming back from Wal-mart with some Kodak photo paper when this prick boy and his friend pull up next to me at a red light and revv the hell out of their little red grand prix. I was thinking "what the hell?? They actually want a shot at a Prelude?" So, I didn't rev, I waited to see if they took off, so when they did...I did too. They were ahead through first and second, they were slowly falling behind. Then when third came, the little prick boys started to cry (atleast it looked like it). Then onto 4th gear, they were gone! At the top of 4th, I stopped because traffic was stopped up ahead (about 1/2 mile). I think I got up to 110. Me and my 93 Si with a F22B. What do you guys think? This was my first time big kill. I assume this was a pretty "sporty" car I raced, I mean because it was all american made stamped with 'pointiac'.

how's this for my first big one?
Just wondering. is this how I should have stuck up against the grand pricks?

careful with the supercharged GTP ones, i've heard those are fast

You have a 93 Si with an F22B? Why?

Grand prix aren't really "little", our cars are smaller And I THINK they have V6's, so I wouldn't call them little.

BTW, you're in the wrong forum, this belongs in the street racing forum.

ya.... 93 si ..i have a 93 si. and i have a h23... you have a 93 S w/ the f22b. and i THUOGHT 93 is f22a .. 94 is the f22b (same as accords) or am i off?

Guys, the JDM Prelude SR has an F22B. DOHC NON-VTEC. I blew the h23 up, couldn't find another. I thought we covered this before.

ok im confused........are u saying that the 93 si has an f22a or that the 93 sr has the f22a?
h22-23 = prelude
f22a-23= accord (correct me if im wrong)
so why does this guy have an f22a in his lude.
thanks

prelude1215, re-read the thread, man

Jordan_4WS · 04-26-2002, 12:18 AM

H22 = DOHC VTEC (prelude)
H23 = DOHC nonVTEC (USDM prelude Si)
JDM F22b = DOHC nonVTEC (JDM prelude SR)
USDM F22b = SOHC nonVTEC (Accord)
F22a = SOHC nonVTEC (Prelude S)

Any errors?

Yup. Modded properly they'll make 400+HP on a stock bottom end w/ no headwork.

UWNTSUM · 04-26-2002, 11:03 AM

The regular grand prix is not that fast... gee, it took u all the way up to 4th gear to beat him? took kinda long dont u think? Anyhow... the Supercharged ones are FAST... I've ran one... its something you shouldn't race light to light, heh. They are usually wider and have GTP on the side door.

I think he's talking about the F20 in his S2k. After all, his name is dS2000
