again, it seems as if you need to put the crack pipe down. seriously, your wasting time and money building the prelude. the car is in ITS and will be destroyed. the 92-96 platform is much better to work with, but that to gets destoyed at the arrc.
same hp as a gsr....
since when does 140hp for the lude compared to 170 for the gsr equal the same?
its nice to build different cars, but when you want to sell that different car, you'll see how people compare it to cars that actually are competitive.
Seems that you need to learn some manners.
Here's what I found from the 2001 ITCS as far as Honda Prelude classifications go:
ITS:
88-91 Si 1950cc, 2550#
92-93 Si 2259cc, 2715#
ITA:
"S" model (no years given) 2157cc, 2680#
ITB:
83-87 1829cc, 2350#
Now, I'm not a Honda guy, but I did check the ITS and ITA classed Acura's, and none of them have engines that match the displacement of the listed Preludes.
Also, since the ITA car has no years listed, I would go w/ whatever years were produced that had an "S" model w/ that engine as well as the other things listed on the spec line (gear ratio, brakes, etc.)
So, if the car nmoon is looking at has a 1950cc motor and is an Si model, then it's an ITS car. If it is an S model w/ a 2157cc motor, it's more than likely an ITA car.
What's interesting is that both the ITA and ITB cars are listed as SOHC, and the 92-93 ITS car is listed as a DOHC. The 88-91 car does not specify SOHC or DOHC. In addition, it does not specify the comp. ratio or the brake size. It is however, limited to 13" wheels (while the other ITS car is 15", the ITA car is 14", and the ITB car is 13" or 14"). I would suspect that there are very few (if any) of the 88-91 cars running in ITS. Otherwise, I'd expect to see more complete information on the spec line.
