Default Should i mod my car??

i've had my 94' 2dr ex for a couple of months now. it has 117,593 miles on it and i was just wonder if i could get peoples opinion on wether or not it would be worth putting on mods. the only thing that is wrong with my car is the CD player doesnt work. I need to know stuff like if it responds good to mods and if so which ones? will the overall life of the car will last? also, good places to buy mods at.

Thanks

im thirsty...should i drink water, milk or chochlate milk?

its really a matter of this: why are you considering modding your car?....

if you decide to, dont make the big mistake most of us made. first thing is to make sure its an the BEST POSSIBLE shape mechanically. make sure all suspension bushings are good. make sure the fuel filter, EGR ports, motor mounts, etc are as they should. THEN ask yourself what do you want to improve.

Most people who have already been through it will say work on the suspension first. the accord is a pig, and its suspension helps it move even mushiery. GOOD tires and maybe a set of wheels you like, and couple that with some adjustable dampers, and if you wish, lowering/coilover springs.

I'd have to agree. Make sure that your car is mechanically cound first. Who cares what kind of suspension or headers you have if your engine is having problems. In my experiance with Hondas and Acuras, you can take them for MANY miles with basic maintenance, but I am also a big fan of keeping it OEM.

If your ride is sound, then just remeber, it is YOUR RIDE! Do what you want with it. (But there are a LOT of people here who have done it all before you. Do your homework before you begin any mod projects.)

best of luck
