Default help on buying an accord

I'm looking to buy a a<<ord and get rid of my problem (dodge avenger v-6). I don't know which to buy. It will be 98-02 2dr...

I don't know which is better


v-6 with -- possible 75 shot NOS! Will the tranny take it? I poped 2 avenger trannies v-6.


i-4 5spd -- possible H22A swap!
With this swap will I need the tranny 2
what if I don't do the swap is the car fast? does it compare to the v-6?



all comments welcomed I plan to buy around sept 1


no more chicken I want R+CE

if you get a 98-02 coupe consider the following
  • the 00 and 01 models have their trannies covered till 100K miles. there was a factory defect found in 3% of them.
  • the 00 is a great year to get. you can still fit the OEM kit on there, and some of the newer colors were available. (ex. satin silver)
  • honda trannies are not very strong, constant use of nitrous will trash the gearbox
  • V6's only came in automatic, if you wanted a 5 speed, you have to go i4.
  • the V6's have supercharger kits available from Comptech and Jackson racing
  • V6's have Comptech parts available for them. (Comptech is the best company to get mods from ... their gains are the highest)
