Not a big update but I got a few thing for the prelude
I heard the liquid moly was good for the engine flush and I bought some redex fuel booster which is meant to help.

Am waiting on two new dizzy deals from America arriving next week too.If the weather stays dry I will fit my new suspension.

Thought I'd paint up my anti roll bars since I have a lot of red hammerite left :lol:

They are surprisingly rust free still so the paint went on very well :)

u could get some red or yellow poly mounts (energy suspension or strongflex-ebay) for the roll bar chassis mountings. the es ones come with clamps as they are a bit larger than oem - the strongflex ones are a direct replacement for oem ones in terms of fit so you reuse the oem mounting brackets. ;) u might want to reduce the body roll a tiny bit if you planning on fitting the lowering springs :)

Re: White BB4 JDM 2WS UPDATE 23/01/17 anti roll bar painting

A little update on the prelude.its been sold to my brother! Well I sort of just gave him it while I concentrate on the Crx.but he's just as weird as me when it comes to maintaining a car so I know it's in good hands.

But before he gets it I have a little bit of work I want to do,I decided to Strip the timing belt done and get it in time properly cause it was really annoying me that it wasn't 100%.

Also finished painting most of my new polybushed parts and my rear anti roll bar.just need to remove and paint the two bars that come from the front subframe to the lower arms.

so after doing the timing belt and installing the Manuel tensioner I very nervously started the car and it didn't break thankfully :lol:

It started up first turn of the key and it's running great.So I have completed my first timing belt which am happy about and all thanks goes to YouTube :lol:

Here's some random pictuers I took when I was lining it up and getting it back in time.
