traction bars
Whats everyone doing in regards to traction bars and other ways to handle high hp? I hae a 95 prelude vtec and I haven't found anyone that makes anything like that for the lude. Any info is appreciated. I have found a place that will bend me a cage, but that's about it. I don't want to put the turbo in, until I have the stuff to handle the power. Thanks everyone.

Re: traction bars (domslude)
preludes dont need "traction" bars b/c they come with them stock. they are called radius rods, get some nice spherical (sp??) bushings from http://www.opmmotorsports.com and you will have the same thing as the z10 bars for 130 bux.

Re: traction bars (Furry)
ok, thanks for the info. Is this gonna stop/minimize my wheel hop? I know they hop now, and from what I know/hear wheel hop=broken driveshafts

well they can help, but replace motor mounts too that helps a bit...
there was a thread about that just a lil bit ago...try a search and see if you come up with it...youll find what you need in that thread

Re: traction bars (EX-Boosted97Lude)
ok, so are the sperical bushings gonna help then? I mean I'd buy em, for 130 if they are gonna work, somewhat. add a qualife, and that would take care of the rest, and then get some good motor mounts, and we are good right? well, the link that is posted earlier in this site, doesn't work anymore, anyone else know where to get sperical bushings?

polyurethane engine mounts, these bushings, amd an LSD...that's a pretty good start.
now, if i could only find polyurethane engine mounts, i know i'd be straight

so basically get some polyutheane(sp sorry I suck) and that would help take care of a lot of wheel hop?

well the mounts will prevent the engine from torquing when you launch it cause the motor mounts force back because of the polyurethane inserts....the engine doesn't torque so the axles don't torque either = less wheel hop
