So after 2 1/2 years on from selling my Integra DC5 i couldnt bare not owning a honda anymore, so after months of searching i finally got myself what has to possibly be one of the cleanest exmaples of a facelift JDM EP3.

All i can say is its so good to be back!!!!

It was imported last October by Torque GT and currently now has only 67,000 miles on the clock.

The last owner had it professionally detailed and protected with gtechniq crystal serum.

Spec as follows:

TDI North custom 3" exhaust system
AEM V2 Intake
Hondata remap @ 240bhp and 173 ftlbs Torque

Tein lowering springs
Eibach Camber adjusters and front bolts

Spoon Calipers ;)
Dixel Grooved Discs

Ill let the photos do the talking.

Commets most welcome>























Thanks for looking :)

Is that genuine? I thought we never got any facelifts over.

Does look lovely.
 
Yes it is genuine but just so rare here in the uk, actually is the first one i have ever seen so had to buy it!

There are some imported, something to do with the import regs on cars newer than 10 years old, now the facelifts are older than 10 the regs change
 
There was a chap on here recently with a facelift Jdm.
Also saw a 05 plate earlier this year down at Tgm.
Very nice car though.

Seen FL JDMs before, seats are same as the Prems aren't they?

Looks very very tidy that though!

Well for now i just want to enjoy it but in the future i may invest in a manifold and a better intake like the tegiwa M then go in for another remap and hopefully make a few more ponies. I really like the OEM look so wont be going mad on cosmetic changes.
 
Absolutely stunning car! The FL is growing on me more n more.

Random question, how do you find the headlights at night? Is the light dispersion decent? On my JDM PFL the lights work ok, but cant really see anything decent when comparing to say a DC5 or Evo light patterns (Just throws the light out in no real focused pattern). Reason I ask is I'm toying with getting a set of FL projectors to cure this bad light issue, but cant really find any concrete info and my Japanese isn't that marvelous.

That's well nice
You should get the Fujitsubo Legalis R exhaust system,that would just finish the car off nice
That's what I'm getting done
