Default Suspension tips/advice needed on ‘04 Accord Coupe 6 speed

Just upgraded '00 LX sedan to '04 EX 6 Speed. Yes, it's fast a little to fast.

The suspension in this car is good, but not enough.

There is too much play (loose) and bouncing going around turns at higher rates of speeds. I have read some previous post regarding suspension, but I need to know if anyone has upgraded the suspension for this model accord. I prefer tight handling. There is so much power when shifting, the car shifts. If so, what did you use and can recommend.

get 04 TL 6MT front and rear sway bars. Front is $90, rear is $50. That's with bushings and brackets.

ummm...the TL's and the 6 speed accords are the exact same. The suspension set up on the 6 speed accord is the EXACT same as that of the newest TL.

the tl does not have the exact same suspension of a 6 speed. i have a 03 6 speed and i suggest you get a rear tl sway bar. that helps alot and gets rid of alot of the bouncy feel and stiffens it up all around. 2nd your gonna hafta get springs or coilovers. i have the s-tech springs which made a hugeee difference.

overall you need that new rear sway, and can add springs maybe a front sway.
