Default Accord owner who is not sure!

Evening all, I'm another person who just wondered around the web and found something very useful.. An engineer by trade an accord owner by choise?
Great to see help for Honda owners, but surprised how little info there is on the web with precise tweaks etc..
Used to have an octavia vrs and there is so much out there for that family of cars (electrics from audi, switchgear VW, etc etc).
Anyway hoping to learn and maybe even help, but thinking of changing my 2005 Accord Tourer for a Civic type R or S....

Cheers

Welcome to the site mate. I've been in a couple of Typer-R accords and also the big V6 accord executive and are nice cars but I can see your point in wanting to go for something lighter and quicker. Have you thought about the DC2 or DC5 integras, nice cars and the DC5 is the quickest honda par the NSX.

Hello there and a warm welcome to TorqueCars, I think you will enjoy it here.

There is a world of difference between the Type R and the S. If you want a good tuning base and lots of performance then get the R! There are also loads of parts around for it as well.
