Well, it is an Accord in Europe. They don't have Acura.

I am going to be heavily modifying it. First, I will begin making that K24A2 shine, using very high-quality parts. Mostly Mugen and Skunk2.

I haven't decided whether or not to go all-motor or F/I. Nonetheless, my power goals are 320+ wheel horsepower.

Once that is completed I will be purchasing a Mugen body kit and giving it that JDM look.

This is my inspiration, it's the 2005 Mugen TSX:

i still love the 05 tsx look. Hopefully there will be a clean aero kit for the 09's to make them look more attractive.

The 05 TSX to me, looks plain. I prefer the wider body flares of the 09.

In addition, I love the front end. Some say it's too much chrome, I just love it, though.

To be honest i would only put rims, coilovers, catback and tune with that call it a day.


Key being that the rims & tire combo come in lighter then stock. Some rp1f ( i think thats what its called) should do.

i agree. i love the tsx and that would make a great daily driver. i would get something a little more mod friendly and keep the tsx simple.
