Hi Guys
Now my FN2 is almost finished and I intend to keep the EK9 I've bought standard I've turned my attention to my EP3. This is very much going to be a build on the cheap. The car has been in my wife's daily drive for the past few years and therefore has really had a hard life!
So initially the plans are to freshen up the interior and exterior while addressing some short falls of the car.
Now as much as I'd like to go all out and get a genuine Mugen lip, grill and wing I'm on a tight budget so because the front lip and grill are already damaged so I've ordered replica items from Knightracing.
A few pictures of the car when we first bought it:
After I gave the car a quick detail:
The existing seats have started to show signs of wear so I managed to get these, along with the carpet from a JDM EP3:
Should come up OK after a good clean.
One aspect of both the EP3 and FN2 that I've never liked is the brakes - the EP3's arent as bad as the FN's but I still wanted to replace my existing OEM set up. Due to my budget Spoon Calipers or any of other BBK is really out of the question. So with that in mind I went on the hunt for a pair of DC5 Brembos which I plan to fit with S2K discs. So after emailing TGM I managed to get a pair for a really good price and Paul at Spooner Restorations is very kindly restoring them for me.
