You're probably better off going out and buying a 3rd Generation Prelude(88-91) SI 4WS then trying to pull a system off another car and customizing it to fit the accord unless you're really in love with the carbed girl. Plus you get a few more aftermarket options and a slightly beefer engine

Those 4WS Preludes were a blast to drive, until you got in too far on a wet road, or better yet SNOW or ICE !!!...hit a curb, and say hello to a 4500$ repair bill.

..talk about losing control, those mo-fo's were damb squirrely !!!.....push the car hard into a corner, compensate for understeer, first you feel the front end going away (which is normal for FWD), and just go a 'tad' more on the wheel, and WHAM, just like somebody T-boned your quarter panel..uncontrolled donuts !!!! (usually subdued by the nearest curb, if you were lucky).

Nice high tech idea at the time, but I wont even ride in one anymore.
