Re: 5th Gen Prelude Exhaust - Will fit?
Today I started to put on my exhaust so far so good. I got it all up under the car and it fits good. I had to cut off some of the hangers and bend the ones on the muffler to make them fit. I also had to cut just a bit off of the heat sheilds where there was some slight rubbing. So all I have left to do is have a piece put on the header pipe to hook the high flow cat to. I will post some pics some time soon.
As the 5th gen Prelude exhaust is available with wide variety of choice, if you could upload the picture especially where you needed to modify it, it would make it great 'How to' thread!
I ran into a problem today I would of been done with the exhaust but I went to put on the high flow cat that came with my exhaust and it is to long, when I put it on it comes way up to the flex pipe. So now I need to take the exhaust pipe behind the high flow cat and cut off the flange where the cat bolts on and cut 3 or 4 inches out then have the flange welded back on. Then I should be done with it.
i knew the 90-97 accord exhaust's fit on our cars, but wasnt sure about the prelude.

they are not that good but here is some pics of the exhaust I put on my car as you can see the s bend was not right so it hangs a bit low out of the heat shield

I didnt realize the 96 exhaust would work, what size is it diameter oem?
hey that prelude exhaust up there is more than just a "bit" off, that just would not do on my car, comes up too short too I bet it is loud inside the car. Nice materials though , I would take it and have that flange turned and rewelded, take some out so it tucks better from the down turn.. then extend the muffler tip just barely our from beyond the bumper cover so exhaust sound waves and fumes do not collect behind the bumper.
no its not that loud but i have got the silencer in so... the fumes won't collect behind the bumper because there is a lip on the bottom of the bumper and that is coming in over the exhaust tip so the fumes will go out
I'm with roodoo on this, it doesn't look like it fits that great. It can be modded to fit of course put my idea of getting SS tubing to begin with is that it lasts along time. If you have to start cutting and welding it seems like an invitation to rust.
Can anyone confirm (maybe with pictures) that the 90-97 Accord exhaust will work on the 3g? I'm getting ready to drop some money on exhaust and would like to hopefully bolt on a stainless cat back system.

beran24, thanks for the pictures! Thats pretty good I thought. Of course it may not be perfect fit but with some adjustment, it will be fine. The cutting and welding would be perfect but if that is difficult, there are some short joint piece which you can tighten it with clamp. Even with cutting and welding, if there is rough shape already, it is not too bad compare to making up from scratch. With stainless steel, the possibility of rust is much much less that with mild steel by the way.. Great, thanks!
so has anyone figured out what adjusments it would take to get the 5th gen prelude exhaust to fit the best it can?
4th gen. exhaust
does anyone know if the 4th gen.exhaust will fit on our cars?
prob not straight up
modding would prob be needed.
if u need an exhaust done, go to an exhaust shop
its cheaper than you think.
if you can weld, buy the pipe and mandral bends and do it u self
