I drive a '00 prelude and am thinking of putting in strut tower bars.. but i have a couple of ?'s:
1. The car has a tendency for the back end to slip out during quick turns(the last time this happened it led to 6000 worth of damage).. Are these bars going to help?
2. Should i buy them for the front/back only? or front and back?
3. If I get them, which ones?

 

I think owkone hit the nail on the head with #1 and #4. I have a 2000 prelude too, but mine understeers like crazy. I don't know how you get the back end to step out easily. If it's not your driving habits, it may be the lousy RE92 tires (assuming you're still running the stock ones). I don't know how many smaller rear sway bars you'll be able to find. Not many companies make prelude applications, and usually they're bigger.

 

1. Check your tire pressures. For street driving, i'd recommend equal 32-34 Psi all around.

2. Spend a day at an autocross or a track school learning about weight transfer.
