Honda tuner enthusiasts!!! I need help with 05 Honda Accord EX V6 coupe handling upgrade ideas?
I just recently purchased a 2005 Honda Accord EX V6 coupe with the 6 speed manual tranny and Navigation system. I am well aware that this car is no sports car and it is not my goal to turn it into one. While this car has decent power, it could really use some better handling. This is where I need your help. I pretty much have a list of items I want, but need feedback on what the best brands for each are. If you have any personal experience with a certain brand please tell me how you like/dislike it… Thank you in advance..
Here is my list:
Springs- Don’t want any more than a 1.5″ drop
Shocks
Anti Roll Bars aka sway/stabalizer bar (front and rear) want polyurethane bushings
Camber Kit or Bolts
Big Brake Kit for Front and Rear
Wheels- Either 17″s or possibly 18″s, must be lightweight, preferable black with chrome lip.
Tires- want highest performance summer tire that is also good off the track as a daily driver tire.
Any other items anyone would suggest?
To Nick: If you read this, where can I find a Tien suspension for my car? Every site i look at only has it for the accord up to 01 or 03? Also how much do your rims weigh?
