In Hong Kong the authorized importer Reliance (where my parents got their new '82 Honda Accord EX) always brought in official export yet JDM spec up until around 1991 when they introduced the Acura brand and separated the showrooms. By around 1996 even the official export yet US spec but RHD Honda Accord started to show up.
Honda's Japanese website had a wealth of info of their cars past and present back in the mid 90's when I used to drool over them on my 486 and 14" SVGA monitor, including most if not all of their past catalogs and press photos.

I think Tcoat's point was that Acura was not a "Japanese Domestic Market" brand and no Acuras were sold inside Japan. Acura was only for markets other than Japan.
