Yes give or take a few month can't remember milage. I go with milage and just keep an eye on the condition of oil belts etc.

My Ep3 has reached 92K now, My handbook and service manual is packed away in storage while we are waiting on the house to be built so had a search on here for service intervals and what is due but not found anything too clear. Going to do the service myself as I plan on keeping the car as long...

Thats alot to pay for a small car! £410 and thats with two box's. they originally quoted £460 for two boxs and £380 for one box but i said £460 was jus too much out my budget and they brought it down to £410

Got a full system done by them last week. Very impressed and they got it sounding just perfect for me, Sporty on accelaration but quiet crusing on the motorway. Larger bore than standard and a subtle standard style twin outlet(I wanted Duel twin but was going to be too costly for bodyshop etc)...

A bit of a thread from the dead but ended up just getting the full custom system with the standard looking twin exit, the duel exit was going to cost too much and its even at my upper limets for this since i should really be saving for moving house in march. Pick the car up tomorow so hopefully...

Yeh i know what you mean just didn't know if they worked as they are so cheap yet the garages softwhere costs a fortune, obviosly there more sophisticated. I think ill get one next time i get paid as could be handy to have lying around

Did the lead work? as since its cheap then it could be worth me buying incase anything crops up in the future

Cheers for the link was spot on for what i needed,at least i know it can be done withe the original. I'll need to speek to the company that does the exhaust and see if they could modify it themselves or would need to outsource it to a bodyshop. If i do go for the duel i won't be going for the...

Yeh i seen that but the bumper cost about£300+ then you would need to add the cost of painting and fitting its just aint worth it for the sake of an exhaust. I was more looking to find a replacement splitter/valance which would be able to pull off the duel exhaust that way i'm not spending...

My exhaust needs to be replaced and i'll be getting the money in a few month to do so. Thought i'd treat myself to a new custom Dual Exit exhaust. Only problem being that the standard rear valance on the ep3 has a section cut out on the right hand side for the standard exhaust, so sticking a...

just remove it and test it with a multimeter on the resistance setting. I cant remember off the top of my head what ports you test but a quick google should throw it up if it isn't in one of my links

Here my two threads http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?65702-Help!-Heater-Problem http://type-r-owners.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?65741-Need-help-finding-a-resistor Its a quick and easy to check and cheap to fix, the honda garage wanted about £50 when i phoned them for the...

I had this in the cold snap at chirstmas, it done my nut in! i had the full heating system stripped out and tested, but eventually narrowed it down the the veriable resistor which is behind the glove box then behind the ecu. just went to the scrappies and got one off a requalr civic and its been...

Yeh it was a pain when it was freezing and i had to stop to scrape inside and outside the car :lol: If it happens again i'll know whats wrong and i've had it in and out that many times i could do it in my sleep in 5min

Sorted! got a new power transistor fromt he scrappie's and problem solved. Thanks to all of you who helped me narrow it down and solve the problem.
