Purchase of Accord

Guys,

I'm in the process of buying a 2004 Accord EX V6 6-speed manual. The
gentleman selling it says it has these 'additions':

-Neuspeed Springs
-Koni adjustable Shocks
-Greddy Evo2 Exhaust
-AEM Cold Air Intake

I will also be getting the original parts, which are all (reportedly) in
working condition.

I am having the vehicle professionally inspected, to be assured that
everything is in working order.

Is there any reason I should replace any of these altered parts with the
original equipment right away, presuming that the car passes the inspection?

Thanks.

Sounds like he built it up to autocross it -- or run it hard.

 

I think I would be a little afraid that car was driven hard & put away
wet.....

 

With those mods, I'd think the owner fancies himself a NASCAR or Indy
driver. I'd walk away from that deal and go find one that was owned/driven
by a blue-haired lady....

 

And be ready to replace the clutch...

Waitaminute, did Honda sell such a thing, or did he put in the tranny,
too? No nitro?

No, he didn't put in the tranny. The V-6 manual tranny is a 6-speed.
If you got the 4-cylinder with a manual transmission, it was a 5-speed.
Another thing that was different is that this version of the car, the
coupe, got 17-inch wheels. If you got everything else the same but got
the sedan, you got 16-inch wheels.

Thanks for the replies. If I do buy the car, I'll at least go in with
my eyes open.
