If its those big square ones (ive not seen a fuse box on a FK2) its pretty obvious when they go just by looking at them, or even a quick test with a meter. I've pulled a heap of them from scarp yard cars so ive got spares for all my cars. I once dropped a tool and it arced the battery terminals...

These bushes look pretty poor also on the Gf's EP3 but I know its going to be a hub off job and either burn the bush out or press it out and press the new one in and I just cant be bothered tbh. So likely have to wait until the bushes completely poop their selves before she will do anything...

pretty sure I left them on as one of my bolts was seized and I had to cut the plastic around the threaded washer to remove the bolt.

Great progress, the cars too clean for a track car! good work on the rust prevention.

I replaced the one of the GF's EP3 about a month ago. I got an OEM one and it looked identical to the Honda one. You need to remove the front bumper - clips on the undertray, screws under the arch's then the top rad mounts can be accessed. unscrew the drain plug and drain into a container...

The clutches go stiffer on the pedal the more worn they are, if its stiff get a new genuine Honda one fitted.

are the fuel filters at the tank end on these cars? ive never done a fuel filter change on a ep3.

What condition are the bolts to the cat? they just disintegrate on these cars and chances are they will need cut off. So Get some new bolts bought ready for when you or the garage do the job.

a genuine Honda Clutch can last over 100K miles no bother.

Girlfriend's 2004 EP3 is on just about 150K now.

ive seen a genuine Honda clutch do over 90k in a s2000 that was 400- 440bhp depending on the pulley used on the charger. Ive always used genuine clutches ever since.

its a round rubber thing attached on the middle of the drive shaft. my brothers ep2 did the same thing. we replaced it with a J&R shaft. I've also got a spare set of new J&R shafts for my dc2, just incase as they were very cheap.

Sorry to hear about the health issues. Only being honest here but those cage mounts want cut out and get someone else to reweld it, it looks shocking that welding. Looks far too cold, doesn't look like any of the paint was removed prior to the welding taking place. Bits of filler wire sticking...

Blue print adl, borg and beck are also decent brands of pattern parts. edit and moog are decent.

If you haven't got a good sized compressor and are looking at battery ones I can recommend the Ingersol rand 1/2" battery guns. I've had mine must be about 4-5 years now and its a beast. I can only remember seized s2000 front subframe bolts it couldn't get out and they were well in there! I've...
