Hi I'm looking to see if anyone has recommendations for rear speaker mounting brackets to mount 4 screw speakers in an ep3 The stock speakers in there have 3 screw holes but my aftermarket ones which I have amped have 4 holes. I used calibra mounting adaptor to get 6.5 inch speakers in front...

Thank you it worked. I'm stupid

Hi I stripped out my car to soundproof it several months ago and install speakers. The day after i stripped it out i noticed the passenger window hasnt been working from either door. I have checked the 4 20A fuses under under the steering wheel and the all look fine. Are there any other...

yes

What battery model do you have fitted? I'm looking at upgrading my audio to a 1650rms amp and wanted to find any decent compatible batteries

Hi i've been looking at upgrading the audio system on my 05 type R and have settled on it being driven by the AV 5.1k which is a 1650w rms amp. I overlooked the fact that my battery is pants, and although i recently put a Varta blue battery in. I recently put an E38 Varta silver in my 300zx...

Rang freakyparts they were helpful. ended up being megane rs mk2 fronts, nissan murano discs

Where did you get the speaker adaptor? I can't find a 6.5" one

I purchased my 04 type r a few years ago and was recently told the front pads and standard rear discs needed replacing. The only issue is that when i bought the car it mentioned having a brake upgrade with Megane RS calipers, the guy didnt know anything else about them as he had only had it a...

Unfortunately I can't see anything to do with the vin number on there. I don't think ill be buying from the other place after seeing some of the search engine reviews though. The price seems too good to be true.

I have also found this battery which is £100 in halfords and halfords says it is suitable. Would this be a decent battery? It comes with a longer guarantee than the bosch battery https://www.thebatteryshop.co.uk/yuasa-12v-50ah-450a-silver-car-battery-ybx5053-hsb053-8583-p.asp It says that it...

I'm looking at replacing the battery on an 04 type r. Currently it has a halfords battery model number HB053 and when looking on carpartsforless and eurocarparts i'm getting 4 different batteries coming up and i don't know which one to buy I was hoping someone could advise me on which one...

This looks like a great deal then. https://grinspeed.co.uk/shop/exedy-oem-clutch-fitted/ I'm glad Grinspeed was recommended even if im not getting the LSD right now. I've had a look online and it looks like a company called Area motorsport are very similarly priced who are very close by to...

I should have bought a new 1080ti when I bought the 1070, but the maintainence on my CLS left me deep in my student overdraft (which i'm surprised Santander let me keep for so many years after finishing Uni). I want to get a radeon 7 to pair with a freesync monitor. I think it will hold value...

Whether it is feb or march just depends on whether I spend £700 on a new graphics card for my computer to stop my fps dropping from 60 to 52 on occasion when playing Forza :lol: Its also my excuse for not currently getting an LSD fitted and just having the clutch replaced, although that is...

The tyres went on yesterday and are a massive improvement. The car can now clear a kerb which is perfect as well. The increased grip and stiffness of the tyre highlights the issue with the front offside suspension which just collapses now when driving. Im getting the b14s either end of feb or...

Would I be going for ones on an m16 screw for an 05 plate? I take it based on it saying 02/01 for m14 and 09/01 for m16, the m14 is only for the very early models? If I have the cash...:(

Ill do the tyres first then. From a tyre reviews video, they actually mention that the Falkens have a stiffer sidewall than the PS4 and CS6. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QseDx-aBaK4 If the PS4 are reccomended by yourself and having a little bit of bounce on the 300zx with everyday driving...

Also, since im replacing the ARB anyway would it be worth going for the Tegiwa 24mm/28mm? Or is the 22mm JDM sufficient.

Thanks the place where i'm taking the car to specialise in supplying and setting up bilstein suspension so thats perfect (Although they had mentioned that I mentioned that with a jap car I may be better off with a japanese brand which is why I started asking in the first place. I'll ask them...

You had also previously mentioned that the yellowspeeds aren't the greatest (you're one of many :lol:) which is why I thought i'd ask what to get.

These are all the ones that i've seen mentioned on forums in association with the ep3, but theres nothing unanimous in terms of what to go for. I don't personally know anyone with an ep3 but the people I know who do track racing have said either KW Bilstein or Tein. I havent seen KW's...

Other coilovers that i've come across are Buddy club N+ for around £1100 and also H&R and KW for £1100 on demontweeks and D2 coilovers for £550 on ebay, and £624 on a website http://www.japshop.co.uk/acatalog/D2-H15-S-703.html

Looks like this comes with bushes. What are the drop links that I will need? http://www.tegiwaimports.com/genuine-honda-jdm-rear-anti-roll-bar-civic-type-r-ep3.html Its mentioned in the ad from when I bought the car that it has Tegiwa front drop links so am I right in assuming that this is what...

Im getting the Falkens tomorrow so I will see how that affects the ride. The ride height is currently quite low, and the space above the rear tyres is maybe around 5-8mm. Although its not been a problem so far I would probably want a gap big enough for my little finger so I dont have to be...

Doesn't look like the tyre comes in that size. I've looked at 235/40 as well, but I guess ill just have to stick with the current size as is.

At the moment the car is lowered(don't know how much) on yellowspeed coilovers with evo 8 wheels (I think 8J) and has rainsport 215/45/17. The ride can be a bit bouncy on a bumpy road although i'm not sure whether thats the tyre or because of the suspension. The front offside is completely worn...

Nuneaton

Hi, I bought my EP3 after watching this vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0laOMg-csM&t=1s , where the guy mentions that the car was built and mapped by PPR motorsport UK. The car i've bought has a Dc sports 4-2-1 manifold, tegiwa carbon airbox, and a Solid fabrications full 2.5 inch exhaust...

Is there something like this that can be done for it to pass? Would it just be a map? Unfortunately I can't select a Type R on their website https://www.avontuning.co.uk/services/advanced-options/lambda-delete-02-off

Just did a code read with an old OBD reader that I had forgotten about and here is what came up P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1) P0219 Engine Overspeed Condition P0420 PENDING Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1) I wiped the codes and they havent come...

Where would be a good place to have it supplied mapped and fitted? I live in the West Midlands so it usually means that im in the middle of everything but close to nothing

Would I need a K100 or can I just get the car remapped?

Where would be the best place to have a Kpro or K100 fitted and mapped? From what I have read, it seems like the k100 would be suitable as I will just look to have one map applied. Is it not possible just to put a CAT on and mapping the car without putting a standard manifold on to pass an mot?

I was told by the previous owner that the car was not remapped.

Hi, i've just bought an Ep3, but unfortunately the MOT is due at the start of next month, and I don't have much time to get it sorted. According to the advert, the car has the following "Big brembo front brake kit from a megane rs (all discs and pads are good) Solid fabrications full 2.5...
