After almost endless deliberation, I have decided that my Accord Type-S is the most reliable car I have ever owned, probably the most economical to run and amongst the most comfortable. This means that until I win the lottery I cannot justifty changing it - and leaves me wondering what I can do to correct it's only real fault - it's not really very exciting.

Sadly the Euro-R is not available in the UK and a CTR would be too small for the family.

So here's my question - what mods would you do and why?

Why not get a Last generation Type-R.

Only thing you can do is change the suspension to lower the CoG and lose the 4x4 look.
Coupled with stiffer F&R ARBs, and air-intake/full exhaust system, even though the OEM isn't that restrictive (nicer note).
Bottom line - £2.5K lighter in the pocket for not an awful lot more to show for it.

Might want to pop along to THAOC.co.uk for more thoughts and general craic.
