dakota_lyons Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 alright. wats up. just registered. im having a bit of a dillema. i found a local prelude, but i know nothing about it besides that it's 4th gen. im sure i can get it really cheap, cause it's been sitting in a junkyard lot for the past 3-4 years, if not longer. but, i've noticed it seems that alot of people have problems getting HP into their preludes. maybe it's just how im reading the forums, but idk. but my other choice, instead of a prelude, would be an intergra 2-door. now heres the thing, this is my first car, i will be driving it throughout highschool, if not longer. the catch? i have $400 from my step dad for selling his jeep, and 1K from my grandma she's been saving for me for a car. but if my bicycle sells, ill have an extra 1500. so about 3000 for a decent setup. what would be the better car? i like sliding i've drifted my friends nova SS, but it's heavy. i know the prelude is FWD, which means understeer? help me out, thanks D_L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerrodh Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 The Preludes alot better at drifting I hear. *Rolleyes* In all seriousness more information is needed on the two cars. Cause it could be a POS prelude vs a mad clean Integra for all we know. Really what it comes down to is what car is in better shape, and what trim lvl the cars are.

nnoossss Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 go for the prelude, u can drive the hell outa them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrIaN EG2 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 am i the only one who noticed 1500 for a bicycle? WTF i vote teg.. when it comes between the two IMO the teg is just better.. if you like to slide you dont want a FWD car.. fwd does mean understeer at high HP but for drifting you need RWD.. unless you want to tray drift, which is gay.. or you could powerslide which is NOTHING like drifting.. IMO teg > ludey what trim is the teg and the ludey? that would help out alot.. seeing that the ludey has been sitting for a while it might have rust.. post pics of the two cars youre planning on buying and that would help out alot on some advice people could give you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatch92 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 i would say go with the integra just because there has to be a reason for that prelude to be in the junk yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakota_lyons Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 yea, i need to get more info. i think the lude is a si, but im not even sure if it runs... and the teg was just teg in general... i haven't found one near me. and the lude isn't really in a junkyard, it's in a old car lot, that the junkyard owns. idk tho. im really diggin the 240sx's right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrIaN EG2 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 there you go.. 240 would be a better drift car pick, lol just be prepared to fix your car alot until you get good and even then youll hit sh!t.. ive had to fix my bmw twice from smacking guardrails.. this thread still needs pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebyu Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 If you wanna drift go for the 240 or better yet if you can find one grab a toyota corolla AE86 ;'D Teggy > Lude Just throwing that out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
