Prelude Vs. Integra Vs. Probe Vs. Fiero

[pimprolla112]

im glad there someone with some sense i havent heard anyone even mention a fairlady in like 2 years, even though all the good imports cost over 25 thou around here there is maybe 1 or 2 newer gen rx7 there maybe 10 evos and supra there like 3 now 2 cause my friend hydro planed and hit a tree in his. but down here the best imports are mostly the shit hondas. i can see how no one likes riced out hondas, or anything with a fart can for that matter. and i didnt meen ricers i was talking about a somewhat decent moded honda with some good aerodynamics turbo and a jspec not some shitty american body kit.

A FWD economy car does not define a good import when it comes to performance, no matter how tuned up it is.

[MR2Driver]

Agreed, but did I hear someone say that a GS-R and Prelude VTEC run 15 flat stock in the 1/4

Wow, the honda camp is getting more and more dellusional.

[GritMaster]

A 2000 GS-R runs a 15.6 stock according to a Road n' Track test
A SH Prelude runs a 15.8
Yeah they run 15's alright, mid to high 15's


Okay did some research on stock cars, Found some results
the quickest quarter in a stock GS-R i found was a 1993, it ran a 15.2
The high 14's they supposedly run are probbly from an Integra TYPE R (not gsr) it can run a 14.7.

Now then On to the Prelude
THE Fastest stock prelude I found was a 94/95 Prelude VTEC it ran a 15.1 (BUT A VTEC PRELUDE WASNT THE OPTION, SH/SI)
1992 Prelude SI 4WS runs a 15.9

To the Ford!
1994 Probe GT runs a 15.7

Fiero anyone?
1988 Pontiac Fiero Formula 16.0

All times were taken from an unbiased site. I doubt they're all the fastest possible, but finding them all unbiased on the same place is a tricky feat, The site also lists around 400 other cars.
All Cars are stock.

Cars to beat.

With your intake, bodykits, gauge pods, and stickers you should be able to beat any of these cars, Happy hunting.

Please tell me that was a joke line...and there are too many variables to say with any degree of certainty who is gonna win this race. What you are doing is called "magazine racing", and it's not cool

[GritMaster]

Yeah it was a joke.

And you may refer to it as mag racing if you like, but then again... anyone have all of these cars so we can go out and test them? if not lets go buy them (I mean c'mon you could prolly pick them all up for under 20 large)
The site is a compilation of quarter mile times submitted by individuals with backed up proof, also some is, yes, gotten from magazines, then again who do you trust more, a magazine or Paul Walker saying his Civic runs a 12 stock.

Btw I despise hondas, even more than i despise ricers :P, actually I don't despise them I just enjoy laughing at them. but given the facts I think the honda might win, according to the results there a 15.2 will beat a 15.7.... don't you think?
I also don't trust anyone's quarter mile times because I seriously doubt theres a honda out their without an intake or some other modification, well not one that was driven by someone under 40 anyhow.

My vote goes for the GS-R

[kman10587]

I'm just saying that you can't really say "this car will win, followed by this car then this car then this car". You can say who is most likely to win, but even that's hard because all of these cars are so close. I think I'd give a slight nod to the Probe GT, but it's really a tough call. The Integra GS-R and Prelude Type SH (which is the same as the Prelude VTEC, only newer and heavier and slightly more powerful) are more or less tied. The Fiero would bring up the rear. But again, it's close enough that the drivers are more than likely gonna decide this race.

GritMaster , i had a freind with only a set of 16' rims on his BONE STOCK gsr run consistant 14.9 at the gainsville track ... thats what made me sway towards a gsr my self ... yall need to quit all this " i hate Honda " shit and realize that they can compete with anything in their class !! your being sterotypical because youve prolly had your ass handed to you by a civic before , and now your just bitter ... i would much rather take a time given from someone that actually has one of those cars , than one submitted by some magazine in which the driver didnt even launch the car ... and LACHEAN , if you ever come to Florida , you will see MANY STOCK GS-R's and Preludes running 15 flat with just better tires , i garuntee it !!

[CrzyMR2T]

i wouldnt doubt that the gsr is capable of 15 flat, but i bet its not that common, what yr gsr are you talking about? ive seen a 94 gsr run high 14s all day with just IHE though.

ive also seen a probe gt run a 15 flat with just IHE.

[GritMaster]

To quote myself

"All times were taken from an unbiased site. I doubt they're all the fastest possible"
I know they aren't the fastest possible, but if theyve all been tested by experienced drivers I imagine they're going to be withing .5 secs either way of the best time, don't you?

I still think the GS-R has the definate edge.

[kman10587]

I dunno, bone stock maybe, the the 2.5 Duratec V6 in the Probe GT has some good potential. Look at the Noble M12, twin turbo Duratec V6 making crazy power :P

[GritMaster]

True, But it doesn't count as a stock car :P
However.... might be nice to stick that in probe :P

[LXDSMXL]

I'v Seen A Seen A Similar Race But, No Probe Or Fiero,
The Race Was 95 Prelude Si Vtech Vs. Gsr Intergra (not Sure What Year) A Mr2 (not Sure If It Was Super Charged)
The Mr2 Had A Jump At Start But, At The End The Prelude Came On Top With The Integra Right After

[6dmnbag]

I've seen a race between a 00 gsr and a 94 sh prelude and a probe gt(i dont know what year,didnt ask) but there was no fiero. the gsr had a slight lead but in the end the sh won.

[LXDSMXL]

It Had To Be A Si,
