well since I still plan on keeping it auto I could use all the mounts from the prelude except the front mount that has to be for the accord and the left side mount, I was able to find that left side mount from hasports for about $130 so its not that bad and i was able to find that old forum that takes me step by step so I think im all good on the conversion now

All I have to do now is find a good engine/transmission combo and all the little parts that go with it :P I might still need some help but Im pretty sure I got all the info I need now, I really do appreciate the help, thanks

I haven't seen vented rear rotors for that, but I haven't looked real hard.

When you're looking at the list of threads in a particular forum, there's a button (top-left) that says "NEW THREAD".

I don't think that they are compatible.

The accord axle has a male spline that goes into the transmission, where the Prelude transmission has the male spline... I think

well i got my engine and transmission done got the hasport driverside mount and new radiator :P its in storage im thinking of swaping it myself but im scared of all the wireing tho i was looking at it yesterday and it looks complicated so not sure yet. If i do iy myself ill have it done sometime this month but if i pay someone to do it it might be 4 or 5 months before i get the money to pay. College isnt helping but its more important so yeah

anyways just had 1 question is the suspenshion for a 4th gen accord and 5th gen accord the same? both being all disk non-abs?
