The Prelude is quicker, especially in 5-speed.

Weight = both around 3000
Lude = 5-speed V6 = auto only
Lude = shorter gears v6 = suck a$$ failure prone auto tranny
Lude = 190hp (usdm) V6 = 200 (loses lots of power through drivetrain)
Lude = highly upgradable V6= upgradable, yet expensive.
Torque = V6

I wonder how it would do against the V-6 6 speed Accord?

well the prelude actually runs a 4 cyl. h22..... yea and its 0-60 is about 7 flat. so the v6 6speed should be able to toast it.

I feel the same way. Ever since i got my accord I am loving it. I'm so glad that Honda decided to make the V6 in manual transmission. I originally wanted my first car with Honda a V6 with manual but they didnt make it (that was in 2001). So i settled with my four banger manual but now with my new car, cant get enuff of it.[sm=drooldude.gif] Im a happy camper.

at least you have a standard........ in order for me to have a standard i have to go through a hellish process to unmount, remount, and so on..... it makes baby jesus cry....... but at least i found an awesome write up on the whole process of making the swap

Thats good. Aim high and you get high. Aim low and...I guess thats where I'm at?

I hardly view wanting to drive a standard tranny as being greedy, and my goals are high but my budget is veeeeery very small
