My Eibach Camber Arms has SPC stamp on them.

Hello. Just wondering if a DC5 OEM LSD will fit in my EP3 box? Or is there anything we need to fiddle with? Thanks!

Okay thanks! Will the cheaper ones work fine though? As I think my friend already ordered me one.

My o2 exhaust sensor had failed and Honda wants ridiculous money for a replacement part. I'm now wondering if I'd be able to buy the cheaper ones online? I saw one for £69. What difference does it make? thanks

Will do pal! Cannot wait to pick the car up haha.

Little update! New parts for her. Coilovers are fitted already, but it was toe-ing in massively, so I need the shortened steering arms. Car is stuck in the garage since Friday. :(

By converting 2mm Toe in rear and 1mm toe out front to degrees. Result gave me 2mm = 0.265 deg and 1mm = 0.133 deg? Are these right? Or am I missing something? Also I'm using evo 8 enkei's which are 17's x 8j. Thanks!

I think I'd be alright as I think I'm running -1 camber on front right now. I'm going for slightly lower in front and same height in the back after fitting the new suspension. So hopefully I won't need them, I don't wanna fork out another £120 for them. :lol:

Thanks! Also I have heard I'd need to run shorter steering arms for adjustment after fitting coilovers? Can anyone shed some light? Thanks.

I've had my EP3 FRSU'd before and getting new suspension fitted means it will need doing again. However, I have lost the geo print out they gave me.. So am wondering if there's any generic I can use? Or any good settings you guys have? Thanks! P.S Car won't be a track car so full on track geo...

Thanks! :rolleyes: I've just picked them up! Probs fit them around Christmas Holidays as uni is hectic right now. :lol:

Don't be silly pal! She just like the rest of the EP3's around!

I haven't updated my thread for a while as I've been so busy at Uni. But as she stands right now. And also off to Mimms Honda Day this weekend.

THIS. I've asked if he has the papers, he said he hasn't got them, but claims they came out from a Civic Cup car so he is pretty sure they're legit. :confused:

Hello! I'm looking to purchase these seats but not so sure about the authenticity. Owner claims they are legit as they came from a Civic Cup Car, but am not too sure. Surely someone on here could tell! Thanks! Here are the photos.

True.. Not for me anyway bud, friend of mine just seeking help from me and i thought of posting it on here to see if anybody knows the car. Your old DC5 is up for sale too atm!

Thanks Loxy! I'll keep searching for some options.

Already spoken to the owner and apparently it's all been done in Japan even before the car was imported. But he has all the receipts to prove.

Am going to look at this DC5 this weekend but is there anyone on here knows any background or history? Before I travel? Also what do you think about the price and the mods. Thanks a lot. Here's the link. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=111760303032&globalID=EBAY-GB

Light hasn't come back since. Also is it just the case of getting a new sensor and swap them? Thanks.

Sad times mate, but house comes first! You'd get more money stripping it back to standard than selling it as is man.

How would I know if it's totally gone? Also what's the worse case scenario? Will it do damage at all? Leaving it like that? Thanks.

Was driving to my friends earlier and suddenly the EML light went on, as soon as I got to his place, turned the car off and turned it back on to see if it will go away. It did. then luckily he has OBD Reader and it went up with "P0132" code Bank 1 sensor 1. Too much/high voltage. He cleared...

:lol:

#hondaforever! :rolleyes:

Thanks! You'll see my car parked everyday at Uni. :lol: FRSU mod is a must!

That's pretty cheap!

Car looks nice fella! Is that Japspeed Manifold? If so where did you buy it and how much? Thanks!

Only the ARB kit.

Thanks! The progress ARB is very good bit of kit! I thought FRSU was enough but then when I have that fitted, I had more confidence of throwing the car in corners. Rear end is just planted! Believe or not, that front splitter is just for looks! But will try the car on track this summer. ;)

It's been a long time since I've updated this. But here are some recent photos! Excuse the dirty car as the shoot wasn't planned. :lol:

EP3 looks good! ;)

Love this car! :D

Looking good buddy!

Awesome car buddy. Seen this before couple of times in Southgate car park in Bath. :D

A good reason to upgrade? BBK? :D

My passenger side caliper started to stick and local friend of mine who has DC5 has just upgraded to spoon calipers so he has these brembos lying around. Also selling them quite cheap. :D

Nice one buddy!

Thank you.

Are they straight swap? Will I get problems fitting it? Would I be able to use my OEM discs and pads? I also have Evo 8 wheels. :D Thank you.

No, gonna use standard seatbelts. :( Thank you! Yeah Horns. :D :cool: :lol:

Awesome pics dude!

Lovely car. :D

Brides are in! :D

That was smooth. Haha

IMO, white would even suit your car better. Especially that your wheels are RPF's. :D

Just seen them on IG! Awesome! I prefer the wheels in different colour though. :(

Very nice Ep3! I liked your EP2 as well. It really stands out from the rest. I think I've followed you on Instagram. :D

Starter motor sticking. Happens to mine sometimes.

I wish I could afford £900! :( But looking at red brides.. :smt047

I've bought that ages ago from S77LTD. However he stopped doing it, but Galpin Auto Vinyls can still sort you out.

Another cheeky shot!

Thank you!

Oh you got us confused lol. And yes will be at Japfest.

:confused: Mine is Satin Silver mate!

True! but thank you! ;)

Does that make my car unique? :cool:

Cheers mate. Yes, I'll probably leave exterior now! ;)

Latest pics as promised!

Looking awesome Darren. I want a teg! :(

Another Fuchs titan user!

ARB is wrong way around buddy.

Satin FTW! Thanks man! The car has transformed, will post new pics soon. ;)

Very nice indeed!

Thanks! yes they look awesome! and yeah I've ordered yellow enkei stickers too! ;)

Haven't updated my thread yet! But new parts have been fitted. Pics will follow. Cannards Custom made front splitter Evo 8 Enkeis. Rear Arches Rolled.

Nice car man! FRSU is a must mod! ;) eBay is your best bet.

Awesome car man! Glad you are back in the VTEC Scene!

Just had 340 miles on a tank.

Fitted the wheels earlier. it's rubbing on rears, in corners and potholes, worse when I got load. So will rolling the rear arches resolve the rubbing issues? Thanks.

Great car man! The chrome strip was abit odd, first time seeing that. Lol How did you refurb the headlights?

Yes, I still have it mate.

Awesome build man.

They're both the same kind of intake. Just different makes.

1) Probs you already got used to the power/pull. The reason you think it's kinda sluggish. 2) What do you mean not engaging properly? 3) 95 ron should be fine unless mapped into higher octane. 4) 5w40 fully synthetic (I always use Fuchs Titan race pro)

Nice car man! Sideways action soon? :rolleyes:

How bad was it mate? Cause I'll probably run the evo 8's for atleast for a month then get my arches rolled. Long drive as well this coming weekend. (Full tank + 2 people) so I'm thinking it's gonna be bad. :(

Thank you! Hopefully getting them this weekend. Wheels come with the aftermarket nuts so I won't need any nuts! Hopefully! ;)

It's not worth de-catting without the remap.

Evo 8's are wider than OEM mate. yeah have frsu already mate. will get the wheels first then start from there. Thank you for the info!

ABP Eibach is quite good, but they're only 30mm all round.

Thanks! helpful. I'm worried about having my car raised or roll arches to fit 215/45 with 30mm ABP springs.

Yeah, so you'd know what oil it has and you have new engine oil too. ;) Yeah that's what I'm using and that oil is what people will recommend you to use.

Honest opinion, get a full oil change so you'd know what type/brand of oil it has. Fuchs Titan race pro 5w40 is what I recommend!

Tempted to get Evo 8 wheels with 215/45/17 tyres with them, but my car is lowered on ABP Eibach 30mm all round. Will I get rubbing issues? Or anyone else had the same situation? Thank you.

SPC/Eibach. Can't go wrong with them.

Great colour man. Nice car. I just don't like the FN2 "R" on EP3's.

I have Un-silenced and Spoon N1. MOT Passed. Just go to another tester.

Lol at Honda prices. Just look for breaking EP3's around mate. I'm pretty sure you can get the fog light blank easily.

It looks awesome! Suits the car really well.

Pics! when fitted. I bet your car would look good with them on! And true, it's your car, your own decisions!

Clean NHB. Welcome mate.

Lol! Here are the pictures!

Hello mate, how are you? Those pics were still in the condition when I picked it up. But transformed it now. did not need re-lacquering, local detailer brought it back to life. Will upload pics this weekend.

It's not worth de-catting without a remap. It'll just cause you problems.

Are you using lowering springs?

Kumho KU39's are pretty decent.

I think it's your clutch mate.

That's a lovely example of NHB mate.
