They look a little to low to be just spoon springs IMO.

This was how mine sat with spoon springs.

 

[pukkaz]

thats looks the perfect hight! i'm going to have to purchase some !

 

[markl]

miles too low for spoon springs!! unless theyve had a coil chopped off . iv had mine fitted a while now and it sits pretty much the same as dottys if not a tad lower. but nowhere near these.

still very nice looking EP3. id go as far to say pretty much perfect ...

[wadkins14]

They'd be summer wheels anyway with them tyres.

8psi.... Paul at TDI North and Tom at TGM both say it'll be fine, but if im looking to do serious track days etc.. i should look at getting an oil cooler fitted.

 

[Jdmep3civic]

i went out in Hovblackctr's charged civic at Snetterton and the oil temps were getting a bit hot on his, 120*c i do remember.

 

[Suits]

With the JDM EP3 having a higher compression ratio to the UKDM, will this have a side affect on the oil temp??.ie, get hotter quicker??

I know a lot of FI K20's go pop and is the reason down to teh higher compression ratios?
