Yes, although you might need to swap the VSS. Carrisma recently documented everything that is needed to be swapped over.

Merlin wrote:Hop comes from the movement of the radius rods (due to the crappy rubber bushes on them) resulting in changes in caster which in turn changes front toe. The change in front toe reduces grip so the wheel spins. As grip is reduced caster returns to normal, as does the toe, so grip also returns. But then you are back to square one and the the cyclic loss and gaining of grip occurs, this results in the banging/hop.
O really?
didn't know this. but must admit, I did get the new engine mounts AND a traction bar so that might have solved it all together,,, Most Preludes are at an age ALL rubbers are worn! so guys wanting to put serious power down:

suspentionrubbers
tractionbar
enginemounts
