1989 N/A KA24E vs 92 Vtec h22a prelude

[dahveed]

lol i bet my single slammer has like 90HP now.

[33alez33]

My 240 is about 3 seconds slower in a quarter mile than my Sunfire and my Sunfire beat an H22 Prelude with intake and exhaust by 1 or 2 lengths so it is safe to say that you will get destroyed at race wars.

[sebazztard]

who races in a sunfire?

[nifares240]

lawlz!

[DustyS13]

you would get killed man. a single slammer is one the slowest cars ever lol

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Yeah man, that extra 15HP in the dual cam makes it a real monster.

[sebazztard]

its very noticable imo

sohc are basically for scrap, or people build them to prove something, maybe lacking in the pen15 area?

[AZ89two4Tsx]

My sohc isn't THAT bad, imo. I just don't intentionally go around trying to race people. It sounds decent, but that's about it. But as I said, it suffices.

[sebazztard]

nothing wrong with rocking an sohc if its your daily cruiser, thats what it was meant for.

man who knew this topic would make it all the way to the next page with just about everyone saying the single cam would lose lmfao

[sebazztard]

shocking right?

[240user89]

lol yeah

[HashiriyaS14]

You might get a better launch because you're RWD unless he really knows his shxt, but he's going to destroy you.

Especially from a roll. For what they are, from like 40-120, Preludes are fast cars. This is why they're such great road-trip rides.

[S14toRPS13]

yeah.. youll get raped by 10 car links..

i lost in an sr by 2 car links.. but he left in 2 and i left in 3rd..

p.s. i dont condone street racing.

p.s. i was on the highway, so that is diffrent

I find that hard to believe. I've ran a 98 Prelude with basic bolt ons in my old S14 with a stock S13 SR and in the same situation as yours. This was on a hot CA summer day also and my S14 still pulled out by about 2 car lengths.

But to the OP, your SOHC will get raped by that prelude. My old SOHC S13 was barely able to beat a 90 Accord.

[j-z]

4th gen prelude vtec is a real low 15 sec car in stock form... the ka sohc is what mid to high 16s?? when i had my boosted lude (4th gen h23), my buddy had one at the same time. his was the vtec model with bolt ons and managed a 14.7. not bad. this was when i was in high school so this was a loooong time ago. even the si lude will eat up a stock 240. i managed a 15.5 @ 89 when mine was stock.

[Didderson]

Advance your ignition timing by like 3 degrees son.

GL in teh RACE! Lol I feel like i'm reading project car mag right now...

<3 that magazine...

[pj]

advance timing, remove a/c, remove powersteering, take out the cat, take out clutch fan, and stick an electric in there. remove all excess weight (yes, all of it), use some grippy good rear tires.and your car will suprise you, still will most likely not have much for him in the top end, end of 4th he'll be moving away from you. but itll be fun.

[S14toRPS13]

I just remembered. I got dusted by this really cute girl back in hs. I was driving my 89 SOHC 240 and she was in a 91 Prelude SI. It wasn't even a race.

[240user89]

lmao well we never got to race last night like wanted but i did beat a 08 lancer by like 4 cars lmfao

[str33tprintz]

This thread is really sad to me cuz I was very very pround to choose my 96 240 over a vtec lude. F*** it I still love my 240

[240user89]

Thank you sir i would too! my friend with the prelude is jealous that i have a 240 lol id prefer my 240 over a lude aswell

[Ninjamasta]

lmao well we never got to race last night like wanted but i did beat a 08 lancer by like 4 cars lmfao

Is that an auto 08 lancer? cause I find it hard to belive, by 4 car lengths. Or maybe that driver fell asleep on the wheel, or you got some really hot girl standing next to him and he is not paying attention to the tree.

[DroptopDrifting]

my friend has the last body style lude (not the type sh though) and when i bought my 240 vert, we raced down the 1/4. so i had a dohc auto vert and he had an auto h22 lol. he won by about 2 car lengths each time, we were dead even til i hit 3rd gear and he was still revving out 2nd, thats when he past me every time. they redline much higher. hope that helps give you a better image of a pathetic race lol. it's just for s***s n giggles

[240user89]

lol exactly just for fun

[240user89]

lol it was auto

[24j0hn]

you guys think my N/A DOHC will win against a H22 non-VTEC?

the h22 has cold air and headers...

[93240cooool]

you guys think my N/A DOHC will win against a H22 non-VTEC?

the h22 has cold air and headers...

because it is non vtec maybe... it will most likely just come down to shifts.

[Nesquick]

i wanna race my KLZE vs h22

track of course
