How do you align a 1992 Honda Prelude?
For the front wheels, adjust the tie rods. For the rear wheels, there is a bolt on a control arm with a weird / off-centered looking washer on it, loosen the nut, and turn the bolt, this will adjust the toe. The camber is not adjustable if you dont have a camber kit. The best way is always to take it to a shop that has guaranteed work.

Alignment term. There is camber, caster and toe. Toe is wheels in or out towards each other. Camber/caster is just in or out top and bottom and is adjusted with shims. Any alignment shop can cheaply check and adjust all three.
What is camber?
Camber is the Angle of which your front wheels are to the frame. Your front wheels are not on a 90 degree angle to the frame, this is done to make the vehicle drive straight. To much +/- camber will wear tires on the inside/outside faster than the rest of a tire. If this is happening, you need an alignment.

The adjustment is not hard but most do it yourselfer's don't have the specialized tools and toe in/out, caster should also be checked. Just get an alignment, it is cheap and they put heads on your wheels that use lazers to see each other using rear wheels for comparison then adjust as needed. It is also fairly cheap.

Why camber is provided on wheels?
What is camber? Camber is the vertical angle of your tires. When you look at the front or rear of you car or truck are the top tires leaning towards or away from the chassis. If the top of a tire is leaning towards the chassis this is negative camber and if it is leaning away it is positive camber. What camber does to your handling. To start off let us look at what incorrect camber angles will do to your handling. It affects overall traction, cornering ability and handling. With camber angles not adjusted to both track conditions and your driving style can make driving or racing your car or truck very frustrating. Now let us look at why camber angles are so important. When you enter a corner your car or truck will want to lean, because of the force of gravity. The faster or harder you enter a corner the more lean you will have. This flex of the suspension will cause the inside tires to want to lift off the surface and the outer tires to lean away from the chassis. This changes the contact patch of the tires, the area of the tire in contact with the surface. If camber angle is incorrectly set the contact patch lessens causing the loose of traction. On the other hand, with camber angles set correctly the contact patch remains flat, lessening chassis roll then increasing traction. Now let us look at how to adjust camber. Almost all RC vehicles use turnbuckles to adjust camber. These turnbuckles, in most cases, are threaded in opposite directions with hex nuts mounted in the center of the turnbuckle. When installing camber turnbuckles make certain that they are all installed the same way. This will make adjusting camber much easier and faster if all turnbuckles turn in the same direction to shorten or lengthen.
