I'm an avid Walmart fanboy....not really...but I did used to get my oil changed there and I'm hapy to report that I never had any problems....dirt cheap too, like $8 I think. I knew a few people working there so I knew it was well looked after (no newbie mechanics).
Like others have suggested get the blues with a mild drop. You'll be happy. Afterwards get an alignment and if need be a camber kit. But you might want to look into complete coilovers. I'm not sure what the prices are nowadays but if you're buying springs and shocks with separate shipping on...
Dinzdale40 - thx for the welcome. I used to own a 6th gen sedan as well as coupe before. Sold them ages ago though, but still visit the forums. Can't get enough of the accord-people! :afro:
Looks good Roy. It would be a good idea to get some before and after Dyno runs so we can see some numbers. & I'll be waiting to see some step by step photos of the swap as you go along.
The 6th gen V6 Coupe is a very nice choice and it's one of my favorite Accords. Especially teh EX with dark leather interior. Everything is sweet except the automatic transmission (it's a gamble, you might find one out there with a decent auto-tranny but the thought of it going bust will always...

Definetly a friendly and helpful community from what I've seen so far.
And Darkside Accord
From what I can vaguely recall on SHO, you only had the front on at that time, no sides and rear. I'm getting old so maybe my memory isn't what it...
I bet theres black van with a big satelite dish parked outside her house now. & I bet by tomorrow, her house along with her just up and disspears....yup, I get off on paranoia & conspiracy theories too much.
Now everybody says... "Hi Rafster!!!"
HI RAFSTER
I would recommend the last year of the 6th gen (2002?) as it would've had all the quirks ironed out. Make sure to get a manual (the auto boxes are somewhat easy to destroy....u just need to look at em wrong and BOOM!....it's gone...no...
Sorry, Hi Roy
I think I remember you from HAN / SHO. Although that was aaaages ago (& I'm not too sure as ur car looks very different now...maybe I'm mistaken?).
