really nice up grade..i want to crash my car and just get a new car, every one is doing it scott just got a new super car..good thing he still keeping the accord. new car here i come....yeah right gl with the new car

+1... I hate to work the system like that and I love my accord but sometimes I just want someone to come and t-bone the living shit outta my car.  I want a new car but I know I wont get anything out of it and cant afford 2 car payment.

Just make sure you're not in the car when it happens :P

Yeah, thanks a lot guys!  I chose the TSX because... well, I was planning on swapping many parts in the Accord for TSX parts anyway.

It is really quiet!  Aside from that drone (I think it's from the wheels?).  It's not that I must have a loud car, but I was beginning to love and adore the growl from the Accord everytime I rev-matched and such...  So here's the order of mods I'm thinking of:

1. Intake (debating on Injen vs K&N)
2. Nuespeed supercup
3. Hondata Reflash
4. Headers (Still doing research on DC vs Comptech)
5. Exhaust (Greddy SP2)  <-- I may end up not swapping out the exhaust...  My girlfriend wasn't too happy about the EVO2 on the Accord, but that was a gift so I had an excuse Cheesy  I probably won't be able to afford one by the time I propose...

Pretty standard I guess Smiley  Somewhere in there, I'll get a new shift knob too.  I've always wanted to try a weighted shift knob, and the one on the car is scratched to heck!

It's kind of funny.  Over at Acurazine, it seems that one trend is to convert the TSX to a single exhaust.  And it seems some I4's here have done the opposite Cheesy  I'm happy with dual exhausts!

Throw in any other suggestions you come up with!  Euro R conversions look awesome, but it seems high profile cars here get keyed or slashed...  Sad

Hmm...  I was thinking about the 80's, and I think I'll forgo all those mods, and get one of these installed instead.  



Car sounds like an RC too!

Euro-R that biach!!!


+1!

What you did is my exactly what I would do if my car got totaled. Then I'd Euro-R that biach. Either way nice ride, I'm sure you'll enjoy it once you mod it a bit.

If not, you could always hit up DMC for a "brand new" Delorean...made from never-used parts sent to Detroit when Delorean's motor company went under.

Congrats on your TSX.  I Just got a 05 TSX in the begining of the month too but its black.  I'm thinking that the standard for 05 TSX's must be a dent on the passenger door and curbed rims cause mines has the same exact problems too lol. Being able to transfer over your parts for the accord is awesome though. I just put my springs and rims on that I had on my accord this past saturday.  But I cant wait to see what you end up doing to yours!!

Thanks Ash Smiley

I'm revising the To-do list...  especially since Skip mentioned 'supercharger.'

Your car looks great now that it's lowered though!  Need more pics though :P

If only AEM made a CAI for this car!  I'd be on it like stink on a big dog.  I'm mainly debating between the Injen or K&N, simply so I can have both SRI and CAI.  But I have a K&N recharger kit left behind from the Accord, and it might be a lame reason, but I might go K&N simply so I can use up the recharger lol.

You can't use the recharger kit for an Injen filter? I think they use the same materials to filtrate air on the airfilter. someone else should reconfirm this on the specifics.

Dammit!  I'm indecisive as it is.  And I was almost at a decision!  Now I have to choose b/t the two again Cheesy

Well, if what you say is true, then whatever deal comes my way first will be the winner Cheesy
