Default RWD Prelude

I found these pictures on this web site http://semsec.org.uk/gallery22.html Maybe someone could scrape up some more info on it.

Oooooo.....It almost looks like a small crappy pic I've had saved on my computer for 5 years or so. I have it labeled "4g 520hp Cosworth". Anyone else know more?

Yeah, I think it has the Cosworth engine in it.

I was talking to another guy who showed me the pictures, and he told me a little about it.

They are both RWD, and why wouldn't you want RWD? How many super cars are there that are FWD? In racing you want RWD for weight transfer. That's why no serious drag cars are FRW. And it is good for m4d dr1ft!ng d0g!

Here is some more info on that green lude. http://www.boostcruising.com/f...=4348

I didnt say that they werent, I said that I wouldnt assume that they were by looking at them. BTW, just because "there arent any FWD supercars" doesnt make it a good or cost effective idea. My .02

well the different offsets of the wheels kinda makes it look like the black prelude is RWD, but that doesnt mean its a stock chassis prelude.. just b/c it has the same head lights and tail lights

but then again nothing is impossible with money and time

offsets on both the front and the back are way out...again it doesn't convince me of anything they wouldn't offset the front more than the back or it would be all over the place...so of course both will be out wide

They black one is just a prelude shell, the motor inside is a cosworth motor. I remember seeing that pic years ago. Looks cool as hell though.
