Guys, don't know what to do! This guy around my town keeps revvin me and I am not sure if I could take him! Hes got 5spd. But I want to shut him up! Anyone have similar expirience w/ the Type SH? 200 ponies compared to my slushomatic 190? Think I could do it? HELP!

 

The Prelude only has 195hp @ 7000, and (156, DAMN)tq @ 5250
0-60 in 7.5.
I think you can toast him, do you know if he has any surprises up his sleeve. (NOS by any chance.)

 

I think the Type SH 5-speed is good for 7 flat, or 6.9. The fastest Prelude was the 93-96 VTEC - C&D (I think) ran a 6.5 0-60 with it.
Anyway, my answer is no, don't race. If you had the 5-speed, I would have said give it a go. But since it's a Prelude, chances are it's modded, which means you are almost guaranteed to lose.

 

It's not modded cuz he doesn't seem to know much about cars, his tailpipe is all messed up and no, it's not one of those 6.5 60mph, it's a later model, I agree with the 7.5 six o time, wish me luck! I'll need it!

thanks for the advice!! I'll probably get toasted but who knows, w/ a y=pipe i may wipe him out!

 

You could probably give him a run for his money. Lookin' at your sig you can probably walk him half the way.

 

Just race him man. You won't know if you don't try. And who cares if you lose, you win some, you lose some. That's how it is.

 

dont forget to flash your hazard lights when you win! hehe

 

Yup, win some lose some that's the way it goes, at least maybe I'll lose but be able to race another day!!!!! Thanks! I appreciate it the advice!!!!!!!

 

Yup hazards are a must when you win!!!!!!

 

I toasted a mod'd SH before on the fwy and I had lots of peepz in my car.

All SH's are 5spds.

 

hey let us know if you won or lost after you race him. i haven't really raced anyone yet and want to know how fast a maxima is and what i can beat or not beat =) thanks

 

i got to run with one that had i/h/e and 40 shot. probably the nicest race i have ever been involved in. very close. The difference was my third gear when i pulled

 

Player1, you have a header??????!!!

 

i think he means the Prelude had the intake/header/exhaust and 40shot.

 

also another Auto Max without the intake beat him at the same time.. BUT once you get above 70 it's basically over for you.. The second Prelude I raced I beat him thru 60 but after ~75 he started pulling away easilly.. So it depends on how far you plan on racing..

 

NOoo, I saw he says he has a 'lyons header' in his signature.
