I've done lots of searching and looking around at 4ws stuff. The bulk of the threads are either 'how do i fix it' or 'how do i get rid of it' sort of things. I am playing around with something much different.
For those of you who aren't familiar with the honda prelude, it also had the option of 4ws. However, it was always active and behaves quite differently than ours does. When turning the wheel, the rears will initally turn the same direction as the front (like ours). However, when continuing to turn the wheel, they then return to neutral and begin to go in the opposite direction, giving the car a very nimble demeanor.
Now on to the question. Does anyone here have any clue how difficult or worthwhile it would be to swap in a rear rack from the prelude? I know that the 3rd gen prelude was a mechanical linkage, but i understand that 4th and 5th gen were hydraulic/computer controlled. Would there be enough room for +-5.3 degrees of rear steer?
