The Meister R's are pretty damn good on a lude eh. I'd get an alignment done though, for added :o factor. :)

Car is looking great, enjoy. 8-)

I find this happens often when replacing suspension with new stuff, highlights all the other weak links!

Car looks good though :)

Not updates for a month or so but brought a polybush kit from @luigi33 on here (thank you)! So will hopefully have this fitted soon and can then focus on the other plans i have for the lude!

Just need to get it mechanically sound before focusing on cosmetic.

Small updated :D

Car is booked in on Monday to get the polybush kit fitted, the respray of the bonnet, roof and front and back bumper and motegi kit being fitted in 2 weeks and in the meantime im thinking about ordering the skunk2 megapower exhaust...

Any one had one of these and noticed much difference? Or has anyone got any exhaust system recommendations.. I was going to get a custom one made by longlife in basingstoke but they are fully booked until june

Bit of a set back, my mate who was going to fit the polybush set reckons only one of the bushes from the 4th gen kit fits the my prelude!

So ive had to order the whole kit for the 5th gen, more expense :(

Looks like a custom exhaust is gonna have to wait, might get an srs exhaust in the mean time and get a custom one made next year

Make sure your mate reimburses you once you get them and do a comparison of each one :|

Has he physically checked them? Should only be the front upper arms that differ between 4th and 5th gen bushes :?

I have an entire 4th gen master set (excluding the front uppers) fitted to my SiR (Apparently there's no difference between an SiR and an S-Spec with regards to bushes).
