I think that an early 90's Non US market Accord Model could be had with 4ws on them, so I'd assume anything is possible. Not sure if the two are interchangeable. Actually some guy on here had a picture of his Accord posted up with the 4ws and what those 4 knockouts are for in the ceter console (near the emergency Brake) Wish they would have put heated seats in the Accords sold in the USA back in the 90's.

the question is, how exactly does the 4WS system work? and what additional parts are used for such a system?

then you would try and see hwo the system is rigged on the overseas models and/or the 4th gen prelude w/ 4WS

I believe it's a steer-by-wire system... a signal goes to the rear rack and it does what it needs to do. When going under 25 the car will response by turning the rear wheels in the opposite direction of the front, so increase turn-in. When cruising at interstate speeds, the rear wheels turn in the same direction as the fronts, to make lane changes and avoidance maneuvers a lot smoother.
