tanabe underbraces installed / RS*R (pics) - Honda Prelude Forum

petern101 · 02-16-2006, 10:26 PM

just to see how low they hang on our cars, i have h&r sport springs too so the car isn't dropped that low at all, but i have already scraped the front (which i knew was going to happen anyways)

rear underbrace

front underbrace

RS*R installed

short review:

the underbraces really did help with turn-in, the chassis does feel a tad more stiff, overall a good buy (more so than front/rear strut bars)

the RS*R amazed me with it's quietness, it looks good and performs just a bit better (i only installed from cat-back, waiting on high-flow cat and greddy headers)

sounds really good (i know i have to wait for it to become louder) but it was so quiet my GF didn't realized i got it, hahaha she will kill me once she knows i got all these parts

exhaust looks nice, any pics from a little farther away?
RS*R is definately what I want but never have found many good pics...

Congrats on the new setup!

i like how you have the rear labled as the front and the front labled as the rear

looks good... any noticeable improvement in stability?

thepreludedude · 02-16-2006, 11:16 PM

you have a muffler on the front of your car...wow!

petern101 · 02-16-2006, 11:30 PM

hahaha yeah i was messing with renaming and resizing and i forgot which was which

stability is a tad bit better, i expect the same experience like my forbidden short shifter, at first it feels really short and then after awhile you just feel like a normal car again

i'll try to get a further pic

Give the RS*R a few months to break in, it will get slightly louder/deeper.

I <3 my RS*R

justanotherlude · 02-17-2006, 09:58 AM

yup.... <3 RS*R.... Give it a while to break in... it will sound nice and deep...

How much were the braces and where did you order them from?

Xander · 02-17-2006, 10:40 AM

i agree... that thing would be broken in half in about a week if it were on my car

SNsLude · 02-17-2006, 11:38 PM

yah damn... the bumps n stuff around my area wouldn't do that drop justice. No angle on earth would protect those bars here >_<

petern101 · 02-18-2006, 12:16 AM

yeah i know it hangs low.......thats why i pointed out it was scratched within 24 hours of me driving with them

hahahah i see it as normal

i got the bars from options auto salon (along with a bunch of other stuff, they were really helpful and price matched everything but don't quote me on that) from options the website said they were 70 each
