The Honda Prelude hit its stride within the nineties and 2000s, but its historical past spanned for much longer than that, as Honda first launched the mannequin in 1979.  The 1994 Prelude VTEC was 174.8 inches long, sixty nine.5 inches huge and 50.eight inches high. Commonplace exterior features on the Prelude VTEC included a power antenna, energy sunroof, 15-inch alloy wheels, intermittent wipers, power mirrors, a rear spoiler and tinted home windows. Under its hood, the Prelude VTEC featured a 2.2-liter, 4-cylinder engine that produced 190 horsepower and 158 foot-kilos of torque. This engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission solely, that delivered power to the entrance wheels. In accordance with impartial testing, the Prelude VTEC may hit 60 mph in 7.1 to 7.2 seconds and run the quarter-mile in 14.9 to fifteen.1 seconds.


 

The Prelude VTEC wasn't overly thrifty for a four-cylinder-powered automotive, nevertheless it was respectable at 19 mpg metropolis, 24 mpg freeway and 21 mpg combined. Thought the NHTSA did not test the 1994 Prelude VTEC, the 1993 model with dual airbags obtained a four-star ranking from the NHTSA in driver-side security and a 5-star passenger-facet rating within the event of a head-on collision. The usual security gadgets in the 1994 Prelude VTEC include twin entrance airbags and 4-wheel anti-lock brakes.

 

As of April 2014, Kelly Blue E book provides the Prelude VTEC a steered retail value of $2,770 when you had been to buy one from a dealership. That mannequin was electric powered, but the S660 idea uses a tiny 660 cc, three-cylinder turbocharged gas engine that churns out all of 67 hp to the front wheels. A manufacturing car with those specs might provide some spirited handling, but would need a diminutive worth — and a roof — to compete on these shores.images2*wikia*nocookie*net

 

Came across a site promoting the OEM NSX wheels at the best price I've ever seen. Im not a big fan of utilizing other oem rims on completely different vehicles, it simply appears tacky when the person who appears at it knows what car the wheels came from. I was into Vdub's and so they often throw OEM Porshe or Lambo wheels on their vehicles.

 

I personally haven't seen anyone run NSX wheels on a DC5, and like you, I want OEM wheels. The Honda S2000 was one of the vital rewarding sports activities cars to return Volk Wheels from the early 2000s. And though that decade saw some critical technology creep into our cars (together with the S2000), this agile little sports car delivered a visceral expertise.
