Any last gen owners of a silver prelude here raced a Euro over the weekend?
Nick - there is a story behind this that you now need to tell ;)
yes.. please, what was the outcome.
He took off the line first before I caught back up... that's about it.. Had a talk before the race and a honk and a flash after to acknoledge... and I forgot to switch traction control and aircon off :( Dammit...
Euros need the high RPM band and speed to catch up... It worked against the Rexes and the Rs.... P.S This doesn't apply V8s aka new BA Falcons V8s and VY Commodore V8s... They got twice as much torque and from a lower RPM... :(
Didnt know euro can do dat, arnt thy jus 4 cylinder.... im pretty sure i race a euro b4.. thy dont go as hard, all i can say is i can see it on my rear mirror.
How much power is under ur bonnet?
Euro has 140kw but is underrated. Euro does 0-100 in around 7.6 seconds.Quote:

OoOO 7 Seconds =P
exellent time for an accord i'd say! =)
how heavy is the euro ??
Depends on model - ie lux or standard. Standard 6mt is around 1390kg
7.6?? Shit, VTiR Preludes must do it in less than that.... which is bullshit, because VTiRs do 0-100 in 8.1 at best, and Euros are easily choppable.
I smoke the same 6sp Euro everyday at Mascot on General Holmes drive....
Just because you beat the same Euro every day doesn't mean the 7.6 time is crap. Honda itself quotes 7.9. Others - including people on this site - have achieved less than 7.9 measured with RSM and G Sensor.Quote:
