Default JDM 4th Gen Accords?

Anyone have pics of any 4th gens? I realise I pretty much the same car, but I remember hearing about a couple differences like power folding mirrors and different front ends. Does anyone have any info on this stuff?

The 4th gen does have folding Mirrors and also carries a F20A DOHC Non-VTEC engine. As for front end has one piece headlights and JDM grill is blended, does not have the H floating in the middle.
My coupe has the JDM 0ne pieces and also JDM grill ( soon to have pics posted)

Any other specs I'm sure to get for you in a bit

$0.2

Had the folding mirrors..... dunno about different corners since most 4th gens had one piece headlights. But I'm guessing the Non-Si's came with the JDM corners.
Aso for bumpers and moldings have a thin chrome trimming on the molding and top of the bumper. Valence wouldn't really know the difference about that.

Trying to find some of the engine... but its pretty hard.
Only thing I could find remotely looking to the F20A is a 4th gen with a F22B.

But I still keep an eye out for that

About the power folding mirrors, I was told that the 5th gen also had this. Is this true? If so, is there anywhere I can purchase a set?

no, first of all they were all plastic, and the 90-91 has a chrome trim around it while the 92-93 do not. Also, CB7 - I'm confused about what you mean by floating grill. The JDM grills are the same as US cosmetically. Im guessing you either got a 90-91 grill, and previously had 92-93, or vice-versa. could you explain it better?

OK.... this is how it goes ( to bad I have no pic yet) 92-93 the front grill "H" is flush not like the 90-91 grill which you can put your finger around the H.
The 90-91 JDM grill is similar to the 92-93 US grill the only difference is a bigger "H" emblem.

now i'm confused. I thought there was a 1 piece lense that was tinted glass, I saw one on ebay a while back when i still had my 5th gen. It said it was from a 93.

side note: why do yours look like they have black housings?

they may have looked slightly darker, because on some lights there is a little strip on the bottom that is black. On most that strip is silver. well anyway if it is black then it reflects up into the lens, but it isnt tinted. Or maybe that specific pair you saw actually was tinted by the owner in japan. I painted my headlights myself, and thats why they look like that. here is a close-up

Nice, that looks really good. How hard was that? The only reason I'm hesitant about buying the JDM's is because of the plastic lenses. My 5th gen lenses which were plastic, looked like **** after a while; all faded and scratched. Although I guess it's would be possible to put that invisibra stuff over the lense to protect it right?

I have the headlights and the folding mirrors. thats pretty much it I think. I have OEM fog lights, which are not really JDM, but since barley any cars in the US came with them some people think they are. I got all three of those items on ebay by the way. Also the tail lights for a 92-93 are the same, but the 90-91 have a chrome trim around them.

Must be a US thing cause we have lots of 4th gens up here like that.

I remember seeing a 92 overseas. It had the same rear tail light style... but a different plastic piece for a long style license plate. It had a diesel engine too... could tell by the smell. They have the digital climate controls, no doubt... and I'm sure they have more options as well. Anyone know of them? I'm sure all those option plates that the USDM has can be filled in the JDM models.


I didn't really get to see it well... was being driven in a stock turbocharged 89 camry at the time.

Yeah, why do all the other countries get the most interesting vehicle options... I'd like to see 4WS on my car... lol.

ok, but where can I get a set. I haven't seen any on eBay, is there anything special that I should search for? I like the stock mirrors and all but I just think it would look good with the folding mirror option.
