uh hey guys. its me, Omega2001x...only now im Omega3001x. yeah, anyway, i finally got pics of my new car so i thought i'd share. its a 93 prelude si. the only thing ive been able to do so far is get the 18" Racing Hart M5s on there. i gotta pay those off before i can do more stuff. tell me what you think...i hope you like it. micah, what do you think man? you need to come up and see it in person cuz these pictures pretty much suck. lol. much prettier in person.

Welcome back Omega. I have to say that I absolutely LOVE THOSE RIMS. I like your rear spoiler too. How much do those rims run?

speaking of prelude si's i raced my friends 5 spd prelude si just like yours today in my automatic 88 lx-i and we were even but he got a jump on me , i woulda started pulling on him but we hardly raced far at all...it was from a roll on, but nice car anyways.

ah thanks man! i really appreciate that. um, i order the wheels from wheelmax.com over the phone. the total came to $1649 after shipping and mounting and balancing. they have 215/35 toyo proxies on them. took 3 days to get here.

and im not at all trying to sound condecending whatsoever, but i doubt a 3g would keep up with a 4th gen prelude si. i know for sure my accord wouldnt have a chance. the prelude does 0-60 in 7.0-7.2 seconds (depending on what, i have no idea) and has a lot of power on tap at cruising speeds. my model has 160hp and 156ft.lbs of torque and you can feel every bit of it. i absolutely love it! hehe

ok well, thanks for the compliment...see you guys later

Yeah those preludes do move my friend has a 92 si that had a fully built bottom end and full gude head package and other bolt ons and that thing was fast as hell and handled real good. He has done a lot to it and now its sitting in his garage with no motor in it because he beat it badly and the gude head sucked but he plans on going with a JDM H22 but i dont see that happening this year but its a nice car to build.

I hate to be mean about it, but those rims DO NOT fit that car what so ever. Its either they are to damn big, or the design just doesnt flow with the car....either way....their fugly!

I dont know if its because the car is so stubby or what....but damn...I wouldnt pay 1600$ for it if my life depended on it.

How much did you get for your Accord?

You gonna throw a park bench on the prelude? LOL :werd:

my girlfriend owns a 93 prelude, and it has the h22a in it. now that is fast. vtec rules!

Its sad when most of our 3gs look better and will turn more heads then that car. Most will look at it and go "man, look at that queer driving" and others will go "No, dude, Look at the queer car!" Its a matter of taste, but either way...your getting laughed at.

Maybe you need to add a wing to this one too, then maybe when you get laughed at you think they are laughing at the wing and not you or the car...and also good job for paying 1600$ for a set of expensive m5s when all they look like are more or less focal wheels. The set up right now just aint cuttin it kiddie!

Sorry, its either....go slow and look straight, or go fast and look like a homosexual. Well, either way your still a homo.....but I guess going fast gives them less time to look.

Speaking my mind....who, me? :rolleyes:

Speeking of racing them in a 3rd gen accord, I raced my friends last night at a 1/8th track, He beat me once and I beat him once. He ran a 10.6 and I ran a 10.7, Not much different.. He has a open air filter, and his is a five speed. Was fun though.. Give me the cam and cat back exaust and I believe I could take him easy until he started on his.:lol

told ya so,, i doubt the prelude si does 0-60 in 7.? seconds, i think your reading specs on the v-tec 200h/p prelude......you have the regular dohc no-tec...which i hung with easily...twice

TeKKnoTeKK
05-16-2002, 04:03 PM
yeah that car won't do 0-60 in 7 whatever seconds.....not with 160 HP. He'd be lucky to do 13's. Nice car though, even though the back looks like a Jack-o-lantern :p

Omega4001x
05-16-2002, 09:18 PM
actually...the 4th gen prelude vtec does 0-60 in 6.8seconds. the 4th gen prelude si does it in 7.0-7.2 and the 4th gen prelude s does it in 8.5. the 5th gen prelude s with sport shift does 0-60 in 8.5seconds, but the 5th gen prelude sh 5speed does in 6.8. so with that said, i dont think a 3rd gen accord with at the most 120hp and 122lb.ft of torque geared for cruising is gonna do jack to a car with 160hp and 156lb.ft of torque geared for quick acceleration. and no, 160hp isnt that impressive, its the torque that makes it special. compared to the 111lb.ft of the civic si or 129lb.ft of the gsr etc. once again, i aint tryin to start trouble. im mearly stating the obvious facts. and 0-60 in 13seconds? where did that come from?? the accord does 0-60 in less time than that!! mmmkay nuff said. later.

you may have more torque than the Si or GSR, but those are also much lighter cars (around 200lbs lighter) with similar horsepower and thus will still beat your 93 lude Si in the quarter mile. i have to admit that some of the figures people were making up in this thread were pretty wild though

Way back i raced this guy he had a 93si and I kept up with him until he hit fourth.......Then he pulled away...so u guys that say u kept up I wanna see that!!! I basicly blew my little car up trying to get out on him! But as for that model
I was also looking for the same body style but black and vtec!
Last little comment 1600 for rims and tires.......Damn U got rapppped!!!!! My Co worker have those SAME rims brand new with tires 1000......18's
But hey as long as u are happy!!!!! Again Nice Car paint it BLACK!!!!
How much did u sell your car for? I saw it on ebay awhile back!
And for the record I actually liked your old wing......it was kinda
big but it was different!

I stand corrected...all you had to say was that it had a H23a in it lol. That's a fast car you have there man. But I hope the accords you are talking about aren't the 3rd gens, they do it in oh....16 something stock i think :rant:

Omega4001x
05-17-2002, 05:20 AM
but oh yeah, i paid $7000 after tax title and dealer prep fees and shit. its got 110,660...or it did when i bought it. and no i didnt get raped with the rims. $1499 for real racing hart brand rims...18s...with toyo proxies isnt that bad. $60 for mounting and balancing...$90 for shipping. i coulda got the katana or giovana look-a-likes for $1299 but i wanted the actual Racing Hart name. ::shrug:: i just took micah for a ride in it to the bank. it wasnt as fast this morning though cuz micah is around 200 so my car weighed about 3150lbs. so yeah. normally im used to around 2950. but oh well. its fast anyway. damn weve run this in the ground and ive come out sounding like an ass. ::appologizes::

i dunno why were posting 0-60 times, cuz i raced him from a roll on at about 40mph...he would probally kill me from a stop no doubt about that.

::beating a dead horse::

did your friend downshift? no doubt the prelude has a great throttle response so you really dont need to downshift to accelerate at a good rate, however its not good enough if you were racing. i can see if he was in 4th gear at 40mph and then punched it, it would go good but it would go faster than you if you downshifted and hammered the throttle. however, if at that speed he downshifted into second reved it out then up to third reving it out again, he would have most likely creamed ya. but i dont know...ive never raced a third gen accord in the prelude. who knows ::shrug:: maybe im delusional... WHATS UP AELLA!!

Ah yes, one of my favorite Hondas, the 4G Lude. Fine choice Justin. I woudln't do much changes. It looks good the way it is. In response to TeKKnoTeKK's comment about the rear end, I felt the same way when I first saw it. I called them devil tail lights. However, the more I saw, the more I liked. They definitely ruined the front end when they went to the praying mantis headlights on the 5G. :barf: Welcome back.
