Ahhh yesh I remember the days with my 00 black lude 
After I slapped the type S cams and the AEM cam gears and the pullys, well lets just say that I could take Hybrid civics off the line
I miss my baby, but its still no S2K!

yeah, I consider the S to be "fast". I consider my friends turbo Miata to be very fast. His last timed .25 mile was 13.6. judging by you guys the prelude is slower than I thought it was. I assumed it was like 7.0 sec to 60.
On a second note, it is perhaps one of the best looking imports I have seen in a long time.

i have a 2000 prelude sh also (just got the s2k)
the SH is not appreciably slower than a 97-02 prelude "non-sh," 44lbs of differential isn't going to make a repeatable difference. high 14s are definitely possible stock, as sev pointed out. it is absolutely a high 6 second car 0-60 if driven properly, just as the s2000 is a 5.x second car if driven properly.
mine is going bye-bye soon, but it ended life with a supercharger, fully built bottom end, and a lot of other doodads. it would eat a stock s2000 in a straight line. basic bolt ons don't do much for the lude. great car though... whenever i get rid of it, i will definitely miss it.
