My newly aquired JDM Championship White EP3

[adz]

Hey Guys,

Last wednesday I swapped my S2000 for this....

Its a JDM EP3 with 40k miles on it.. There are a few problems I need to sort but on the whole very happy with the car! I only swapped the car so that I could sell it to a mate whos been after one for ages - Im after another S2000, but I have to say Im HUGELY impressed

I absolutely love it. What a fantastic machine. Im hugely tempted to keep it myself and say bugger it to the S2000! (and I never thought Id see the day I said something like that). It handles amazingly and accelerates insanely and its practicle!!! :S The other thing I like is that Im so used to waiting for the back end to slide out and give me grief in the S2000, this just corners like its on rails with the LSD!

Also the attention it gets is unreal! Ive had people come up and ask me about it! That never happened with the S2000!

Are you sure I thought the DC5 felt a bit light and floaty standard:shock: spot on when it was lowered and fast road set up but nothing special until then which surprised me


Nice car by the way.

Very very smart mate

Yep

thats odd...

the spring rate is quite a bit harder then aftermarket 'lowering' springs, you lose the stroke too that's why honda had the height the way it is.

also you shouldnt lower the car on oem dampers/shocks as it ruins the tie rod end angle's and you would get alot more 'bump steer'

there's a BMI video where the spoon guy talks all about this, and basicly gave up trying to make coilovers for the ep3/dc5 super strut gay suspension.

Championswhite is the win !!!

Wish we had them in NL

Mint ride and don't trade it for a 2000 !
