sorry
i didn't finish i last statement
no they fit perfect the only problem is u have 2 get a couple of big washers the size of the axle nut about 4or 5 on both sides b/c the the longer cv joints that may be the problem b/c i haven't installed washers yet i just tightened them up all the way just 2 see what was going 2 happen really i just wanted 2 know has anyone physically attempted 2 install the prelude cv joints on there accord that's all is it possible i know that the accord will fit but they are alot weaker and break really easily on good launches but if it can't be done i'll reinstall the accord axles and just upgrade later on but that's really the big problem i wan't be able 2 put washers on the end of the cv joints today b/c it's raining in NC today and tomorrow suppose 2 any way just wanted some good info i have searched all i could and i ran across a couple people who have used the lude's axles and some who have upgraded
please don't flame just wanted some good info

the way i have my axles set up, i have the full accord passenger side axle, and for the driver side i have the prelude intermediate shaft, and an accord axle with a prelude inner CV joint to match up to the intermediate shaft.
strength benefit? not worth the work of swapping the joint and bearings. use all accord axles. i only did it because of a time constraint and i couldnt find an accord intermediate shaft and had prelude axles handy.
