welcome to the site man. And even though you don't plan on doing much to it you should at least lower it and black house the headlights :)

I'm considering the black house head light mod in the future. Probably won't lower it though.

Hey man, welcome! Those tips your first mod? I'll be sending them out for you first thing tomorrow morning.

Thanks! And pretty much my first mod, though I did strip the tint and have it redone and I've put in a drop in K&N Airfilter to replace the stock. I like the re-usability of those! Also picked up a set of new floor mats, the front mats it came with were crazy worn.

Haha yeah that's what it seems, not looking forward to that day!

And thanks for the welcomes everyone!!

Not necessarily...us V6'ers are all not automatically doomed (no pin intended), but it does happen! So take care of her, and she will take care of you. :)

And welcome to the site.

Thanks again everyone for all of the welcome replies! So far I really like the accord, not huge fan of the fuel economy it gets but it is definitely a nice car. Soon after I get home next week I'll be pulling it into a friends giant garage and giving it a nice bath, clay and wax treatment hopefully to bring out some more shine. Then I'll post some new pics.

Welcome to the site bro. V6 Powa!

Just like the other guys said, Tranny cooler, and tranny should be fine, otherwise you could look into a 6-spd swap :naughty:
