The LS Integra has 107kw correct?
How well would a manual LS fair against an automatic VTI-R Prelude in a straight line drag? Noting that the prelude is a few hundred kilograms heavier...

first of all, what the heck is a vti-r, second, we try to stay with technical posts here..not who would win posts. (dont feel bad, theres been a lot of those before).

 

ahh sorry i forgot u yanks have modified model names

in Australia we got GSi, VTi-R and Type-R
you're equivalent is LS, GSR and Type-R?

and we dont have "Acura" all our stuff is called "Honda"

 

but u said the vti-r was a PRELUDE

 

Yes, the LS has roughly 107 kw of power.
1 kw=1.34 hp
107 kw * 1.34 = 143.5 hp

Integras usually have somewhere between 140-142 hp at the crank. I've seen 0-60 times ranging from 7.6-7.8 secs.

I don't know the specs of the prelude so I cant answer who'd win.

EDIT: Here's what I found on the VTI-R prelude automatic
Specs:
2.2 litre
DOHC
16 valve
4 cyl
VTEC

Maximum Power 147 @ 7000 ( I think its in kw, so in its 197 hp)
Maximum torque 212 @ 5300

I personally think this should go in the "kill stories" forum... That's more appropriate...

PS.... But I'm biased on the Integras... heheheh

 

Lock this up..........

 

The Prelude would kill it.
