my friend just bought a 87 prelude si and he says he can bust my maximas ***..its a 5 speed i have an auto...what are the specs on these cars..thanks...peace

 

I want some of whatever your friend is smoking.... 1987 Prelude SI has 2.0L 110hp I-4. Expect it's 1/4 mile time to be somewhere in the high 16-low 17 ballpark. 0-60 in 9-10 seconds. Aftermarket support for these cars is virtually nil... you will rape him. Bet him $10 and then whoop his ***.

 

Bet him $50 and have dinner, after you smoke him.

 

Hell, just bet him his car...

 

lol thanks guys..im gonna go to his house now...and whoop him..hahhaa...peacee

 

Check back here when you get home.

 

ahh...he backed down...but hes gettin a h22a engine in it..then i guess hell whoop me

 

aren't they 4 wheel drive? or was that for the early 90's prelude si's? if your racing curves and he has more than the usual(spray, charger....), it has a slight but still improbable chance of beating you. if its stock have fun laughing at him, then make him bu you gas for your trouble.

 

nah I think you are thinking 4WS, that's 4 wheel steering.

 

hey Jibs... if he races you and takes you let me have him... I'll race him for his title and give ou the car when I'm done.

 

WTF is that?

 

I don't know if the H22 will fit in that car. Actually, I'm willing to bet it won't. At least not without a lot of work. For that kind of money. He could get a newer lude.

That looks like the rear end of a 4th gen Maxima j/k Isn't the type of steering where all 4 wheels turn.. I think the rear wheels turn slightly so u can bust really good u-turns.

Yep that's correct! The rear wheels move as well to assist in steering. I remember the TV commercial where a Prelude is run through a cone course set up so that it imitates passing another car. It just does it tighter than a regular car. I think I may still have the Car & Driver magazine on it somewhere....

 

yo pj..u know who im talkin bout wit the lude....my boy wit the turbo volvo..he already bought the engine and its gettin shipped...he gonna whoop some *** now ..

 

he aint whoopin no one... maybe my civic, but thats it

 

why would you waste the money for an engine swap on a 87 prelude?
