Little brother wanted a honda and he has always liked ep3 so when this came up he fell in love with it.
So we made plans to go and view it and ended up coming back up the road with it.
Liked the extra rare factor plus it had fairly low miles and was really clean. Also made good power with simple bolt ons when the old owner had it.

MR Jdm ep3 with 44k on the clock.

Couple of mods.
spoon final drive 5.1
exedy stage 1 organic clutch
kiaten super karui flywheel
braided clutch line
tgm buffled sump
ds2500 pads all around
cat 1 alarm
buddyclub side skirts.
sfs induction hose.

So after a week i gave it full machine polish. I never done it to make it perfect as it was done in one day but to give an improvement.
Also caught the mod bug again. So got a few parts for it for my brother.

Also have oil, oil filter stuff for service and getting it undersealed. :thumbup:

Took it to Andrew Biards garage and got it fully serviced, undersealed and the parts fitted.

I had it at a rolling day at Henrys dyno Few weeks back to see what power i am sitting at. As i would like to know the difference after i have finished with it. Made 228 bhp at the flywheel and 152 torque which i was really pleased with. Well over the moon. The car was standard at this point bar the spoon sports aitfilter me and my friend fitted couple of days before.

Couple of better pictures. Will post more when gary finishes with them. Much better than my iphone pictures above lol.

Comments welcome good and bad.
Thanks for viewing
 
Whats the steering bracket for? Car looks lovley :) they are growing on me......
 
The steering rack thing is for when you lower it.
When these are lowered the driveshafts are at a very awkward angle. This fixes this problem.
There so good to drive.
 
Looks good mate , nice and shiney :))

Think you mean the steering tie rods not driveshafts;)

Very nice ep3:nice:
 
i love jdm pre-facelifts in any colour other than c/w,sweet,milano is my fav colour
LSD would be great
 
Very clean, as you would expect from such a mileage!

Forgive my ignorance though, but what purpose does the steering bracket serve?
 
It is mentioned above. Fixes the position of steering tie rods once you lower it.
Thanks.
Will give it another machine polish soon and have it 100% corrected with stonechips done aswel.
Just waiting for the better weather. Too cold to spend hours in the garage cleaning the car.
 
Little update.

Got a new headunit for it. Just waiting on a new bluetooth cable and sat nav reciever.
