imo, the rsx type-s will win in all categories.

Although, if your friend doesn't know how to drive, and you do. You can possible edge him out in the quarter mile.

Good Luck.

I 100% agree rsx will win hands down... but I think a Prelude will be cheaper, and if you want to tune it there is a bit bigger engine and more space in the engine bay...

Re: prelude vs rsx s

There was an Rsx at the track this weekend running consistent 15.8s and when my stock prelude was completely stock ran 15.85... to me a very close race

2001 prelude SI...Curb Weight: 2954 lbs. ... the SH is even heavier

2004 RSX ... Curb Weight: 2789 lbs

difference.... 165 lbs

well, if you're going to account for every pound, you'll have to include the driver's weight as well.

Re: prelude vs rsx s

when you get your sh take out your spare tire and rear seats take out your passenger seat and throw a couple of paint can's in your friend trunk when he isnt looking.

Re: prelude vs rsx s

lol, might as well disconnect your p/s pump while your at it (very quick job, just don't overtighten the belt when you go to reinstall it), oh, and do like the pros that shave off every gram, go with the atkins diet and starve before the race
