anyone else experiencing this?

mooney,
i just got done with my Russel SS lines. the front bolts up pretty good, but the rears has no mounting points. its king of hard to explain. the angles are a off.

maybe if someone who has russels could post up pic, that would be great.

So as far as ease of installation and compatibility, disregarding cost, what is the best set of lines to get?

Lol I didn't even know Neuspeed made lines, but yeah, so far I've read about some kink (nor literal in reference to the lines themselves) or issue related to either all or almost all the SS lines available for the Prelude. For instance, if it's not "fronts went on ok, rears didn't", it's "these didn't fit right" etc. If there were a guide or a list out there that listed the lines available for our car in order from best to worst, I'd buy that for a dollar.

i wish that russel would have included a diagram saying, it should look something like this when done.

well, i think that they just want to make sure you have an imagination of your own

cifer6425 · 05-29-2005, 05:10 PM

yea but when it comes to that kind of stuff, i am seriously lacking.

i dont have creative skills.

I have had my Russell's for just about as long, they are going on before the car comes down off the jackstands.

if you figure out how to mount the back ones let me know (maybe take a pic). i know 4th and 5th gens rears are a little diffrent. also let me know if your front lines have two mounting pieces and if they do can/did you use both. mine had two and i could only use one, the other mounting point -- the whole was too small. it could have easily been fixed with a drill, but i did not have one handy.
