Isn't it the control arms from the 3g prelude to fix camber problems with lowering the accord?

The steering wheel should also fit.. Well it better anyways because I ordered one :D

The 84-87 Preludes have lots in common with out cars. It's the source of the camber-correcting control arms and has the A20A engine. I'd expect many other parts to carry over too, but I don't know any specifics. I was asking what year his friend's Prelude was.

83-87, not 84-87... 83 was the first year of 2g ludes, had a CVCC engine, so i'm fairly sure you're gonna have the best luck with non-engine parts on that particular year...

The 2nd generation Prelude (84-87) use either a dual carb engine, or the BT engine. The parts from the BT Prelude engine are 100% interchangable with the Accord. I'm using the ECU and distributor from an 87 2.0si in my 86.

And, of course, the transmission is a nice piece to grab while you're in there.
