    Lightbulb 91 prelude struts

    I just recently picked up a 91 prelude off the side of the road, it was abandoned. Anyways, I was wondering if the struts will fit on my car. Also, are there any other parts that could possibly fit, ie throttle body, exuast manifold, or even the 4-wheel disc brakes. By the way, it has a b21a1 in it, but its got serious engine problems.
    no

    Ask me you'd better run that car's vin number past you local DMV and check the ownership status. You might have stolen property on your hands. Their might be a owner that would like to get his property back, just a thought.

    I don't know if 3rd gen prelude struts will fit, I really doubt it though. The best way to find out, short of pulling them off the lude and pulling one of the accord, is to call Koni and ask them to look at the technical diagram's for both struts and compair.

    I wouldn't give much hope that anything from the car will fit, highly unlikely.

    You just found a 91 Lude?? I had to buy mines!! The struts won't fit, IMO.

    the engine over heated and has a warped head, so i am going to take the throttle body, intake manifold and all the other goodies and convert it to fuel injection sometime later. ill probably be needing a little help with that too. anyways thanks for letting me know that they wont fit, save me sometime, and that also means cut springs for me.
    no

    so, wait, you're converting your accord or the lude to fuel injection? b21a1 is a fuel injected motor... as for the 4 wheel discs, you can convert...the hubs should be similar enough betweent the two to work... a 2g lude would be a better donor though... front rotors of the 3g lude should work up front, they may be slightly larger than the accord rotors...
