Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

    suspension

    Is the stock prelude suspension comparable with my 90 Lx. Found stock complete set of strut springs and.if so is there any difference from stock accord setup?

    No. The only suspension that you should be using is one made for a 90-97 (4cyl) Honda Accord.

    2001 Honda CR-V SE RT4WD
    2005 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71

      What year prelude?

      92-96 prelude difference that I know is that the prelude suspension is lowers than accords.

          Thanks for all the responses however I'm trying to replace me current setup of cut springs and blown shocks. And I can get a prelude set for a killer price. The.junkyard nearest to me is owned by a crook who everprices everything. I believe running on prelude shock would he much safer that what I currently have so all I'm really asking is whether the bolt up pattern and assembly is the same

            I don't believe the shocks will bolt up. If they do, it will be just the front, or just the rear... I forget which supposedly fits. They won't be valved correctly for the Accord. They'll still be safer than blown stuff, but not much. You could probably use the springs, but I wouldn't. If the diameter is different, they won't seat properly. If you can get Prelude parts cheap, grab em and resell em on ebay, craigslist, or a Prelude forum. Make a profit on them, and put that money into buying proper accord parts.

            Get 30 posts, and you'll be able to enter the Classifieds section of this forum. There, you can request stock springs, and someone may have them to sell to you. Someone may even offer to give them to you, as they're not really of any value to anyone. With stock springs, your cheap shock options are abundant. KYB GR2 or Tokico HP are good, and a very mild performance upgrade (neither is good for a drop, but good for OEM springs.) Even crap like Monroe or Gabriel will be sufficient. They're not good, but a hell of a lot better than what you have!

                It's all pretty much the same. I think the main difference may be the valving of the shocks... but that may not be the case either. Most aftermarket stuff is the same between 90 and 97.

                    $120 seems a bit steep if it's old original stuff... but it'll fit if it's worth that price to you.
