Build your suspension up, and maybe a cold air intake or cold air box (better choice) for some added throttle response. That should make your car a little more fun to drive. Other than that, it's not really worth the money to add parts to your automatic car.

"you had me?! you never had your car!" honestly though modding an automatic is like taking a dump in the tank of your toilet.. you can do it.. but its gonna stink

Check out the tech forum https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum/15
And see what you can find there. Look up top at the sticky's may be one of the tranny guys knows something that may help.

Conversions can be done if you get a hold of a manual tranny. But I agree with the better intake, throttle response, and suspension (upper and lower bars and coil overs wouldn't be a horrible idea). Ultimately you have to ask yourself, how long do I want to keep this car? For me, I just bought my newest honda not to long ago and don't mind spending so many thousand fixing it up because it is planned to be my car for awhile.

The only automatic cars that are worth modding are ones with RWD and V8's..

Switch to a 5spd manual.

A cold air box is similar to your stock air box. Basically it's a box with an air duct that routes cold air into the box. You run an intake pipe, basically a short ram intake, with the filter enclosed inside the box. Do a google search of Comptech Ice Box. Here's a version DIY of what it is:

It give you more low end power than a short ram intake, and more high end power than a cold air intake.

If you 'don't want tickets' and are worried about gas prices, Leave it stock, Period.
