Well lol, I'm not the one who should be answering this but if you get no answers this might help somewhat...

1999 Honda Civic Si 7.1 15.7
1998 Acura Integra GSR 7.0 15.6
2000 Honda Prelude S 6.8 15.4

Nothing is exact... numbers for 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile.. obviously prelude puts best times down.. and is teh prettiest but as with any of the civics and integras they seem to have more potential in mods and cost less

Thats why i put S =0P... anyways from what I read up on the SH is only like 30-40 pounds heavier.. if your a fat boy just lose the weight and dont worry about it hehe =0).. hold on ill look real quick

civic Si's are lame and slow,

as for a GSR, never raced one, beat tons of Tegs though, and this is in a mostly stock 5th gen. I would go for the 5th gen, nothing beats higher displacement....2.2ltrs is nice.

Hmm ok im getting like 2954 for the S i think and around 3040 for the SH... maybe i need to search better but im lazy and very tired.... I dont think all that weight is from the ATTC either.. SH had different trim i think also spoiler, moon roof, some had leather as dealer option.. plus SH is lots of fun even if u sacrifice a 1/10th or 2 of a second for the traction... if all u plan on doing is drag and building you engine up and boosting then dont go for the sh.. if you really like the stock car and arent doing much more then i/h/e then get the SH.. after around 220 horsies the attc starts to not work.. doesnt hurt anything just sorta doesnt work anymore

I think all 5th gens had moon/sunroofs(forgot whats what). I was curious about this topic also cuz I just got my 5th gen, my friend is about to buy an SI, and my other friend just got his Integ this year also. I think we got a lil edge over them but our H22's don't respond to basic bolt ons as well as theirs...I think. My other friends have sr20det powered 240's so I dunno about them, but IM thinking about racing my friends with Civics, Integs and Accords. Oh and my other friend just got his RSX type S but I think I'd lose for sure, another has those older generation MR2's like 93ish turbo, I think I'd lose also. But vs them GSR's and SI's I say *** it...race em yo! Keep it safe tho

Oh and how about versus them new SI's cuz my co-worker just got one and wants a piece of me.

Stock for stock, the prelude owns the SI & GSR. Unless the prelude owner can't drive.

If it's not working, you'll get the ATTS light. If you really want to find out if it's working, go through a corner at 50mph+. If your car is still in one piece and you're still alive, it works.

Stock for stock, it's a driver's race. If both driver are equal, he'll edge you out.

Everything being equal prelude wins. But in real world drivers are not always the same and sometimes the other guy gets a horrible start which is good for you

Buy a used (99 or 00) Civic Si. Drop in the Vortech supercharger with aftercooler. You will still spend the same amount you would have dropped on a Prelude or Teg. the only reason I say this is because I got owned by an Si with the Vortech supercharger--I was in a 95 M3.

Sticky Tires Owns!!!
