I was looking on tirerack.com the other day and came across this:

DO NOT USE WITH EIBACH SPRINGS OR ON SH MODELS

They are referring to the Koni Sport shocks. Just curious as to why they have...

Replacing control arms and ball joints

Looking to install adjustable control arms and ball joints for my 1999 Prelude, base model. Was quoted $900.00 for parts and install, is that a fair price?

My 99 Prelude while traveling at about 65 mph on the highway causes a weird problem.

Re: Colder weather and brake light sensor (HtxPrelude2K)

Don't have a solution, but every winter my 99 Prelude's brake light comes on... will turn off sometimes after I have been driving for a certain amount of time, other times it will just stay on.
