Opinions differ. You'll need the 4th gen Prelude axels and maybe the water pump too. You'll most likely need an OBD 1 conversion which requires (all from a 4th gen Prelude VTEC) P13 ECU, fuel injectors, and distributor. Some people here have managed the swap with the 5th gen distributor.

I would disagree on the axles part. You can use the Accord Axles just fine. Actually, the Prelude ones will be the wrong length for the 5th gen Accord body.
