Yeah man, just do a couple more "outruns" to get some custom parts. Then win a few URLs and some drift racing so you can unlock the new neon lights and the STAGE 3 Suspension and Turbo kits.......... Oh, this isnt NEED FOR SPEED UNDERGROUND 2???

Seriously, your wish list sounds like its straight out of a video game. Grow up, dont waste so much on stuff that doesn't do anything but raise your cars visual appeal to criminals. You saw what happend to lordaccord, and his car looked clean. Wait a month before buying anything.... Once the video games are out of your system, I think you'll realize how stupid this actually sounds.

just do something to your car that would make it look really clean and put some bolt-ons also. once you learn how to drive and get used to your car, you can go from there.

im only 18 years old and i dont want speed anymore but more style and clealiness from my accord. Oh and mileage, i get shit mileage for some reason.

I just want a real clean lookin car and a little bit of power at the pedal. And like I said before this is definately not a shopping list its a list of everything im considering. Im definately not going to spend ****in $20K on all this shit thats a little bit outa my budget. I mean come on be real im not some little ****in faggot that wants a god damn video game car and I have never even seen the fast and the furious so don't even ask about that. And the chances of my car getting stolen where I live are slim to nothing, theres not one person on my street under 50 years old.

Here's the inside scoop: Z3 fenders and altezza lights are not "clean."

The only thing a Integra has on an Accord is handling, my friend Mark has an 01' LS and I have an 01' LX, both of them are stick. It's a pretty even race when it's a quarter mile, however his stock suspension is more tuned towards handling than mine. However when I get my TEIN suspension my car will have the upper hand...I'd say go with whatever body type you most like, because you could put a B18C in the teg and a H22 in the accord and they'd be pretty even IMO.

You forgot weight. A B18C powered integra will easily beat an H22 powered Accord. Accords are boats and that is why Integras will outperform them. Integras are sporty and Accords are built for economy and hauling family around it. It is like comparing apples and oranges, they are built for two different purposes and with identical mods, the Integra will outperform the Accord any day of the week.

So then explain why my friend's teg doesn't pull on me at all? When we're both getting a 50HP boost why would it change? There's a 300lbs. difference between a 2001 Accord LX Coupe vs. a 2001 Integra LS...however that is a decent amount of weight but it's not an extreme difference.

Here's the specifications for you:

JDM 97-01 Prelude VTEC
2157cc (DOHC VTEC)
Horsepower: 202hp@6800rpm
Torque: 161lbs-ft@5500rpm

Compression: 10.6:1
Bore: 87mm
Stroke: 90.7mm
OBD: 2
Redline: 8200rpm
2001 Accord LX Coupe - Weight: 2,943lbs

VS.

JDM 97-01 Integra GS-R
1797cc (DOHC VTEC)
Horsepower: 178hp@7600rpm
Torque: 129lbs-ft@6200rpm

Compression: 10.6:1
Bore: 81mm
Stroke: 87.2mm
OBD: 2
Redline: 8200rpm
2001 Acura Integra LS - Weight: 2,643lbs

The curb weight is cited from Carsdirect.com, if you care to look. Now the Accord is 300lbs. heavier, that is a difference. However with a H22A G2 the engine is putting out 22HP more, give or take, and 31lbs. of torque when compared to the B18C G2. I think that makes up for about 250-275lbs. difference between the two cars. Granted the Integra may beat the Accord, that is a very good possibilty, but I don't think you're giving the Accord enough credit nor are you aware of what it's capabilities are. The H22A G2 is also 1k cheaper than the B18C G2 on most import engine sites, which is a big difference. So in conclusion, if we were talking about 1/4 mile times I think that the difference between the two cars, if the drivers were similar in driving abilities , would be .2-.3 at the very most. However, in terms of cornering, twists, and turns I'd give it to the Integra but the Accord wouldn't be very far behind. So basically it's a preference and there isn't any HUGE difference between the two.
