    Is this a 60 roll? Because with the long GSR gears he will drop to first, be right at vtec and leave the prelude.

    If it's from a dig the GSR would win, b18c > h22

    100-175... gsr again.

    How is the prelude supposed to win? Gsr vtec is louder.

    If it's from a roll, the gsr should win.
    If it's from a dig, it's a driver's race really. I've heard of preludes beating gsr's on prelude forums, and i've heard of gsr's winning.
    The gsr has better gears and is lighter, but the prelude has more torque, so it really is gonna be a driver's race from a dig.

    you are kidding me right? there is no way a GSR will drop into 1st gear at 60mph!

    secondly, how are you going to base the winning of a race on the loudness of vtec to your ears? LOL

    I say it depends on the driver and the condition of each car, it should be pretty even. I had a 2001 GSR and Prelude.

    put the best driver you can find in a stock accord, then put a granny shifter in a bugati veyron and see who wins

    a race is about a lot of things..
    about the driver, car, setup, gearing, road course, weather, tires,
    whoever ate their breakfast, etc.

    It all depends on how healthy, the motors are and the drivers.
    The two cars run about the same time ,in stock form..

    The prelude has to be stick too, since all GSR's are 5spd. Auto 5th gens are very slow and no way it'd beat a GSR.

    NOT TRUE

    I can race a turbo civic with 350hp and 215 ft/lb and lose with my mustang that has 215hp and 285 ft/lb. Assuming traction and drivers mod on each car.

    The Veyron is a auto so on a straight line, the Veyron will always wins.

    And for the turbo Civic v. Mustang. There are much more factor than just hp and tq. Weight is one big factor.

    I would say Prelude will win the straigh line, where GSR will win tracks.

    Yeah you probably got your ass handed to you. Any given civic weighs probably HALF of a mustang.

    Not even sure that's true, but a GS-R is a higher end version of the Integra. Why not compete it against a Type SH on the track.

    Prelude will prolly out handle a stock GS-R.....

    remember its made to be a sports car and it does handle like one, don't knock it till you've driven it.


    lol @ 5.0's staying stock, biggest POS ever when stock

    Yeah, like I said, hypothetical.

    I would think a prelude would out handle, but i've never even ridden in one. Although I've never seen one throw down a number at the race track that is even almost impressive, where as I've seen a few GSR's with just a cold air run high/mid 14's.
