How do you bleed the brakes on a Honda Prelude?

Easiest way to do it is raise the entire rear of the car first, take both wheels off and then bleed one side at a time with an assistant to push the pedal for you while you open and close the bleed screw to flush the old fluid out.

Where are the Bleeders on the Toyota brake system?

The rear calipers had bleeders on each side (four piston calipers). You could also suck as much fluid out of the master cylinder as possible, refill with fresh brake fluid from an unopened container, open all 4 bleeders and gravity bleed the system with a pan under each wheel.

How often should you run a brake bleeder?

Its not rocket science. And, as long as you didn’t run the MC dry, and you get that 4-8 ounces from each bleeder, you’re good to go. Repeat every 2-3 years or during ANY brake service. If you don’t have the recommended 2nd person, you’ll need a Motive, Mityvac, Speedbleeders, or other single man bleeder kits.

What kind of suspension does a Honda Prelude have?

Getting your Honda Prelude suspension dialed in can equate to you out-handling your competition, and depending on your type of racing, will even give you better times. If your vehicle came from the factory with softer suspension, it will almost always handle poorly until the suspension is replaced with a performance setup such as coilovers.

How big are the sway bars on a Honda Prelude?

Another thing to consider when modifying your Honda Prelude is sway bars. By default, almost all factory cars are tuned with an understeer bias. This makes them easier to drive at their limit, and much safer. For example, a stock Mitsubishi EVO 8 (AWD Turbo) comes factory with a 24mm front sway bar, and a 22mm rear.

Why do you need coilovers on a Honda Prelude?

One of the many reasons anyone purchases a set of coilovers for their Honda Prelude has commonly been to lower the car. The lower center of gravity will help reduce excessive body roll and improve performance. Having the adjustability for ride height, spring preload and damping are essential features of a high quality coilover.
