Hey guys im pretty new to this so bear with me. I currently own a 99 EX sedan with 160000 miles. I have been wondering for a while if there is anything cool I can do to it without sacraficing gas mileage and without doing a complete engine swap (but maybe in the future!) so any recommendations? I've heard that just putting a cold air intake on the stock engine really doesn't do much for horsepower or gas milage so any help would be greatly appreciated.

suspension work will make the car a lot more fun without adding more power to it

^What he said. Get a nice suspension set up and a bigger rear sway bar.

Rear sway bar, front strut bar, coilovers or spring / shock combo, better air filter, and aero stuff

^^ what they said, get some nice wheels too...

Search for a deal, I use Craigslist and sanantonioimports dot com for local deals on wheels since not everyone is a big fan of the accord.

Get some OEM Honda / Acura wheels

yeah ive been meaning to find a set of wheels cheap, maybe some 17x9 with 235x35 tires. as far as body stuff it would be great to find some after market bumpers and rocker mouldings. any sites for those?

Most of the members of this forum would recommend that aftermarket bumpers are too ricey, but lips kits such as Wings West and Xenon are tried and true. Just search members rides to see for yourself and pick up some ideas.
