      i think it would be hard to get very good times due to there isnt much of a high performce aftermarket the preludes.most just go with a civic..and a prelude isnt that heavy what dose a 1st gen eclipse weigh 3000lbs? and with that said how many preludes do u hear of pulling lots of hp? and just wondering what size slicks dose dave use? and how much hp dose he have?

        dave has around 600+whp...they weigh about 2900lbs for the awd model

        At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

          that's because most people put the h22 into a civic or crx, dumping the prelude as too heavy. the only place i've heard of a built prelude is prostreet; they used the 3.2 v6 (if i remember correctly), a tube chassis, rwd conversion, and two turbos... haven't checked on it in a while though.
          i believe gary marsh was faster with street tires than slicks for a long time, until his team figured out how to not break drivetrain parts when using slicks

          i just looked closer... over 800bhp and he's still using a fmic? what a fool! he should be using a water/air intercooler

                      Shep has been running 9's and now mid 8s with not a single reliability problem other than breaking a valve spring and killing one turbo last season. He has yet to break a diff, tranny, axle or T-case. Not bad for over 5 years with the same car. Sounds like some DSM owners need to talk to him and find out why he doesn't breaking making well over 850awhp and racing at every event.

                      I rarely have break downs with my DSMs. While they only may run mid12 to high 11s, I still have yet to break a diff.

                        like i mentioned when i was at sls this afternoon, i havne't run into any big problems with my dsm... but i'm not anywhere near where buschur, marsh and shepherd are

                        doesn't shep also rebuild his tranny ever couple of events too?

                          From last time I talked to him.....once a season unless he feels it's getting fussy. And considering that he is sponsored, and must make appearences at just about every event.....he also has to keep his car intact.

                            BULLSHIT!! I've watched him break down in person a few times.

                                      how about this... jim's crx w/b18c5 (assuming he does buy it) will be faster than most of us from a roll (unless he figures out how to launch) with less hp than we all have. it's all power:weight

                                          i'd probably build a honda if i didn't have a dsm; there are so many options for engines, chassis, trannies, etc
                                          however, i think it might be nice to find a sohc saturn that doesn't burn oil and boost it with a small turbo, would make for a quick (200hp/2300lb) daily driver that's dirt cheap, gets good mileage, and doesn't get a second glance from law enforcement 😉
