You appear to be on the right track, I would check the battery connections, and the connections at the other end of the battery cables. I am not too familiar with imports, but it may also be an ignition switch (electrical) problem.

If your Battery, Cables, Connections and Alternator out put tests and inspects correctly then try jiggling your ignition switch in your driveway while your car is running. Do it by moving the key up and down very quickly. Honda had a lot of issues with there ignition switches, and yours may be worn out. If this is not productive, then you need to have a good diagnostic tech inspect for your dying problem

I had the same problem. I resolved the problem by changing the ignition electrical hardness. It is about $ 50 dollars at the auto part store. You need to remove all the plastic covers on the steering wheel and remove the ignition switch disconnect the electrical harness. The harness goes from the ignition switch to the fuse box inside the vehicle. Also disconnect you battery first and you need time and patient to get this work done good luck.

I had a 93 Honda Prelude that I had the motor rebuilt on. While driving I noticed the tachometer and speedometer would bounce up and down (like a bad ground) and then when I attempted to accelerate the vehicle would die. I went to autozone and talked with a buddy. I bought the ignition control module (take off the distributor cap and it mounts right on the inside of the engine. Has a couple wires that plug into it and a coupld of phillip head screws). I replaced that (around 50 or 60 dollars) my car ran just fine.
