Default 3rd gen suspension parts

does anyone know where i can find tockico illumina shocks, and/or anti roll bars for a 91 si? ground control's website says they carry both, but i called them the other day to order them, and they could only offer me coil overs with the hp's. plus they were anything but helpful. communists.

no company makes adjustable shocks for the 3rd gen prelude any more. you will need to custom fit a set to your prelude or run non adjustable.

whiteline sells the sway bars. And for external alot of times you can send back shocks to the companies and they will rebuild them for you with adjustable means. I know koni does it if you send them the reds they will convert them to koni yellows, for a pretty penny of course.

I have a sick set of shortened and revalved koni yellows, GC coilover sleeves and 450# Eiback ERS springs all the way around. I need the money. I have less than 300 miles on the setup. If you want it, it yours. But I have over a grand invested.

are you sure about that??

just buy some for another car, like a 90-93 honda accord, seeing as they are built off the same frame.

check http://www.preludepower.com in the 3rd gen specific forum, they have a stick on parts that are interchangeable from other hondas to the 3rd gen.

also check, http://www.honda-prelude.com
http://www.3rdgenprelude.com
http://www.preludeperformance.com

those 4 sites have 3rd gen specific sections and there is a **** load of info and parts available, just gotta search for it

honda-tech aint the place for anything below a 92 prelude

like i said, no one specifically makes 3rd gen adjustables. you need to custom fit or go with non-adjustable. i have adjustable suspension on my prelude. i did the searching and found ones that work. everything on my prelude is custom fit. the only thing that was a direct swap was the 4ws.

Well, it is the place for 88-91 Preludes ....With the heart of a 4th gen

Anyway...Ive looked everywhere for what other kind of coilovers fit, only thing i found was 2nd gen integra coilovers. Good to know that the 90-93 accord ones work too.

EDIT: 5th gen coilovers work too.

i bought bilstein sp's and i have gc coilovers on the way. i also ordered anit-roll bars from whiteline. their webpage sucks, but if you get to talk to someone they're helpful. i was also wondering if parts form the accord were interchangable with the lude. not so much suspension oriented, but things like the shift linkage, and engine bolt ons. thank you guys again for the input and the coilover offer.

How much were the anti roll bars? I am in the same boat- having trouble finding parts and all.
