Up to now i have done:-

*Put my stereo in it
*Put some new plain reg plates on it
*Hondata airbox mod
*Full service

Plans as always:-

*lower suspension
*Wind deflectors
*Ferrodo DS2500 pads
*Kpro ecu
*Exhaust manifold
*induction (gruppe m or gen2 kit etc)
*different exhaust
*4300k hids
*adj camber arms and full alignment
*Different rims
*DC5 seats
etc etc you get the idea

I will be really busy in work over the next month as i have last assessments to make me fully qualified, so i may be alittle slower modifing this one, but i do plan to make it a pretty nice ep3 :wink:


For those who dont know me, i am pretty anal with my cars so dont be expecting to see a standard ep3 for long :twisted:
My previous cars have had alot done to them....

Sorry i couldnt resist putting up pic of my old cars, i miss them! :cry:

Thanks for any comments boyo's
 
if you do change the rims let me know if you decide to sell the standard ones as i would be interested in them
 
Looking forward to see what you do with this one. I saw your last DC2 at the previous MCR-VTEC meets.
 
Old cars have been very good, as already said.

Build up threads are always very detailed also, which is nice ;):D.

Bring on the EP3.
 
and i love what you did to the EK, i am after 1 for the missis so if anyone knows of 1 for sale keep me in mind
 
Looking forward to seeing this thread progress, as with all your others should be a good read.
How the hell do you afford to keep buying all these mods all the time, let us in on your secret. ;)

I over spend and struggle:lol:

So, on with the progress! I fitted some ABP 35mm spings today, the ride height is spot on and the ride is still very good. (thanks to tom and ade for the help!) I also treated myself to a manifold and decat which i'll try and fit next weekend, i have wind deflectors on order too!

The new manifold.....

Thanks guys!

BTW i'm not a huge fan of the darker coloured rims.

I'll probably be painting them soon so if anybody wants to swap for some std ones before i do give me a PM
 
I fitted the manifold today and it definately feels quicker, its made more difference than any B series manifold i've ever fitted anyway.

It was a bit fiddly to fit though, had to remove the ARB completely
