Suspension Question - Honda Prelude Forum

digizure · 10-20-2011, 12:28 AM

Hello all, I am new here and I just bought a 1998 Prelude SH with crappy suspension (from previous owner). I'm hoping to have my suspension set up done right the first time. The Prelude is my daily driver and I don't really race it even though I like going fast on the freeway.

Right now, I don't have enough $$$ to go with a spring/strut replacement because I need to replace the brake pad (Akebono) and rotor (Centric or Mountain Japan). Because three of my struts are blown, I can only afford the struts at this time.

I'm thinking about getting Tein S springs in the future (the car has Espelir Springs). KEY QUESTION: Are there struts that would fit the current spring set up and Tein S for later? Maybe KYB GR-2?

I don't want the car lowered too much, maybe somewhere between 1.2" to 1.5". I am not sure how low the car sits right now on Espelirs. No way to measure.

Thanks!

I think I should get KYB AGX but everywhere I look, it says they do not fit type SH model. Any suggestions?
