wich is heavier 92 accord dx 4 door with h22 or 96-98 prelude vtec

[aznpnoyracer]

just like the titike says, I was just curious about the weight differences. ps. just wondering, why are accords also called cb7 etc. or cd?

[dbsharp]

the cb cd is the chassis code you can find it in your vin number. and there is a difference between a 96 and a 97-98 lude.

1992 Honda Accord DX Sedan - Curb Weight - 2733 lbs

1996 Honda Prelude VTEC (92-96 Bodystyle) - Curb Weight - 2932 lbs

1998 Honda Prelude Base (97-01 Bodystyle) - Curb Weight - 2954 lbs

1998 Honda Prelude SH (97-01 Bodystyle) - Curb Weight - 3042 lbs

The 1998 Prelude Base was a 15.1 1/4 mile car based on an old issue of Car and Driver I have. They also generally get the best numbers out of their cars of any automotive magazine.

So......now just subtract f22 weight from total cb7 weight, then add h22 weight...? Sounds good to me

so since the accord dx is about 200 lbs lighter it should be quicker than the base prelude at about 15.1 1/4. and I also took of the p/s components and spare tire so that probably nocked of 100 lbs. no wonder I came head to head with a type R intergra. sweet! you guys hav been alot of help thanks.

are sure it was typeR? or was it gsr with type R badges? i have a hard time beleiving a non p/s h22 accord kept up with a b18c5.

(especially because i have that car.)


and the car's should match up fairly well. 5th gen preludes have fat asses and 4th gen prelude's are about equal to accord's.

haha,funny yes it was a type R, I hang out with the guy so I know what he has. one thing is for sure, I'm not a rookie when it comes to launching and shifting a car, I'm a 9 yrs. veteran of street racing so I know how to push a car to its full driving potential.

i wasn't bashing you, a lot of people make the mistake. you put a type R wing on and badges on a GSR that's white, red, or yellow and BOOM! type R replica. i know how to drive my car and i only put a car on integra SE's is why i have a hard time beleiving you.

i heard that u only gain .10sec/100lbs, not 100% sure thats correct, has anyone else heard of that?

... or -.10 for every .01 shaved off your 60' times I believe.
