As the title states I am looking for answers to what I can do for mods on my 05 Accent GSi (No engine Mods). I was looking around online and I couldn't really find anything, so if you guys could give me a list and help me out that would be great thanks.

well what do you want to mod besides the engine?
U could go the route of suspension and get new sway bars and strut tower bars, springs and shocks. the accent comes stock with plenty of body roll and understeer which isnt really a bad thing but i went with new adjustable sways from whiteline and SR strut tower bars, along with eibach springs and kyb gr2 shocks. Still has very acceptable ride quality as well.

Probably because he's a ricer. :dead:
or he is worried about his warranty or something.
Different kind of hobby, you make your car fast or you make your car look....fast....

It's just some peoples thing, to each their own.


P.S. Corner killer, where did you get your KYB GR2 struts and eibach springs, thats the exact set up I'm looking for but don't know where to start, I feel sort of foolish because it seems like it would be common sense but, haven't been able to figure it out. Look for a 1.5' lower.

lol your so funny. The reason why I don't want to do engine mods because I had alot of issues with engine mods in other cars that I have had over the years. This how come I don't want engine mods at this point, maybe once the warrenty is out then yeah. Also I am so mechanically not inclined I won't do anything on my own.

Yes thats another reason to how come I don't want to do engine mods because I still have 3 and a half years left of my warrenty, I want to keep it.
I got my eibach springs from www.tirerack.com around $224 total shipped.
KYB Gr2 from classy auto around $270 total shipped.
$494 ish total, not too bad:)
