huh?

As far as the MC brace, I think there might be a JDM after market one around for the Prelude Type S, but seeing as how it's RHD it might not be able to be modified to fit the USDM Prelude. I'd just consider getting something custom made if you really want one.

most mc braces i've seen sit on the driver side wheel well and under the strut brace.

Well I looked for them a little while, and only saw the ones for civics and integras.
Is there a specific Prelude brace, or is it possible to use one of those other two and drill your own mounting holes? They are made to fit some bolt pattern on the other cars.
And they did look to be installed on the wheel well.

if the master cylinder for the prelude is the same as the teg/civic chassis I'd most definitely use it but i dont think they are...otherwise they would list the prelude chassis

Wow! I didn't know there was any aftermarket ones. You'll probably have to make one yourself. Its not very hard. 2 1/8" galvanized steel brackets, couple of nuts and bolts, and threaded stock with nuts on it to press against the mc. I have a write up saved from someone who made one for their Teg but their site doesn't exsist any more. PM me your email addy and I'll send it to ya. I doubt it would mess up your suspension though. You only press about 140-170lbs on the brake pedal. If that causes suspension problems then you got much bigger problems than just that.
