1) Any ECU to stock harness.
2) Yes
3) Yes, all.

In what Fastrack were the 97-98 base models and Type SH separated and the base model given a lower minimum weight of 2825#? The first I saw anything about it was in the 2005 GCR that I just...
I have yet to hear a compelling argument against allowing crank pulleys when accessory pulleys are allowed. I one is allowed the other should be as well.

The RSX Type S runs second fiddle to the '99+ Miatas in SSB and didn't the '99 Miata recently get classified in ITS? The 5th gen Prelude is in ITS which has the same power but weighs a little more...
The 97-98 Prelude should read 195hp.

If you want to be competitive the question is how can you afford not to run them? They are a good 1-2 seconds per lap faster than the Kumhos or Toyos, which is an eternity in racing. I get about six...
Yes
On my Prelude the ECU checks emissions every 3rd driving cycle. Because I have the backup power fuse to the ECU pulled it resets every time I turn off the car so I never get a CEL.
Is it legal to replace a standard O2 sensor with a wide band O2 sensor?
Are you talking crank or wheel horsepower? To get under 12 you would need ~240hp in a 2850lbs car. I can beleave they are getting 240hp crank but not 240hp to the wheels.
YES
No. This rule would only help a few older cars that came with small wheels. Make it fair to everyone and make the wheel diameter open.
I use the Spec VR on the front on my Prelude and Spec C on the rear. I have 5 weekends on this setup and they are not even halfway worn. The feel similar to my old favorites the Porterfield R4 but...
No ducting needed so far on the tracks I race at. Are you racing your 5th gen Prelude in ITS? If so what track did you fade your brakes at??

It is not impossible to find 14x7 wheels, they are available but they are expensive. Allowing a wheel diameter change would help reduce the costs of racing for those who want to go this route, which...
I think the secondaries are open by default. I tested this by unplugging the vacuum line and they stayed open all the time. By keeping them open all the time you would be losing power down low under...
My mechanic, Todd Marcucci, has already been in contact Hondata about putting their OBD1 P28 inside our Prelude ECU. Another option we have is the AEM EMS. My mechanic has a Prelude AEM EMS and will...
I have been tracking my Prelude for 3 years and started racing it in IT this year. I don't have any competitive Mazdas in my region but we do have several fast 240z’s. So far I have managed a few...
I'm all for any diameter wheel, but for the opposite reason as most of you. The Prelude has a required 16" wheel and with a 225/50/16 the overall tire diameter is almost an inch taller than stock....
Cool http://Forums.ImprovedTouring.com/it/cool.gif another Prelude racer!!
I would check out www.preludeonline.com in the for sale forum. There are tons of kids that replace their Prelude's hoods,...
5th gens make pretty good ITS cars. In my first race two weekends ago I got second place and had the fastest lap time.

Not sure if many of you have been following this but the East Coast Honda Challenge www.honda-challenge.com has really been successful in the Virginia region. I would really like to do some of their...
per the GCR the 325 is 2850. The Prelude per Fast Track will have a minimum of 2905. The Prelude has a few extra hp over the 325 however.
