ITR > Prelude VTEC
Prelude VTEC > Integra GSR

A stock Prelude VTEC runs a 15.1 1/4 mile. A stock GSR runs a 15.6.

Here is a good article that compares the Prelude SH with an ITR

No kidding...read my text, it says Prelude VTEC. 5th Gen's never had a "Prelude VTEC." The only Prelude VTEC was a 92-96 Prelude. And NO 5th Gen were not DOHC VTEC. They had a crappy H23A1 hampsterwheel.

The article was posted merely for a good read on a related subject.

Lets keep the false information to a minimum please.



I like how the MT article mentioned a Prelude Type R. Silly rabbits...
I'm really glad Honda never went that route and kept "Type-R" sacred to a few vehicles that actually merited the term. That's basically what killed Chevrolet. They slapped "SS" on every vehicle that really didnt have any performance upgrades and no one knew wtf their models meant anymore.

If only the aftermarket was able to hold back from the R nuttiness.

I absolutely agree with you. A Prelude Type R would've failed miserably. The front end of Preludes are too heavy. Honda would've needed to put the Prelude on an extreme weight reduction program. JUN happened to do something right with the BB4.
