[BApparently the 4th gen axle spline is too long for the 5th gen hub. When I torqued down the axle nut, it ran out of threads and did not seat the spline through the hub fully. As soon as I drove the car the bearing came loose.

I don't know if this is an issue with all 5th gen hubs, but I tried 2 different ones from a 98 and had the problem with both.

To fix the situation, I used a washer under the axle nut. That gives the nut more room so it can pull the axle in all the way. [/B]</TD></TR></TABLE>

So to make sure you don't just ruin your wheel bearings you need either
1. Enough washers so that the axle tightens
2. 5th gen axles.

Do it!

 

lol at the 3 left wheels =P, anyways it looks clean

 

cool ..... but why bother.... is it more for aesthetics ?

Yeah I don't know why...the sportlines are like 1.9/1.8 or something..but I have also notice that.

umm it's from all the launching the car is used to being all on it's *** like that haha

 

Looking good Joel.

Too bad my Prelude is no more

 

your 4th lude looks pretty hard, i dont really like the sawblades but they look good on your 4th gen

 

Where did you buy the front bumper lip. I'm looking for one for my 99 Prelude. If anyone know please let me know.
Thanks
Sam

I make them. Just working on mounting it to a 5th gen right now

 

Nice joel, def. a mod i would do to my 4th gen if i had one, only thing im not diggin abotu your ride is the turn signals. Other then that pretty damn hot ride. O and invest in some coilovers buddy. haha

 

another nice piece of work you have done. those rims look a thousand times better on a 4th gen then they do on a 5th.

signals look good just not in that light i think. I have orange ones here too...might switch to those for fun JDM y0!

 

my front bumper was painted the same way as his was and I like it better that way!

thanks.</TD></TR></TABLE>Using all new OEM honda parts its around 900-1k at least that is what it is for 5th gen accords for pretty much the same parts only using odysee/v6 accord front end parts rather than the 5th gen lude. Junk yard parts are much cheaper....

 

looks good

 

You forgot if you have an SI 4th gen you need to get the rear ABS sensor from the 5th gen Prelude to match up to the newer spindle

 

Looks pretty good

 

5 lug = better selection of aftermarket rims
