So, I now have my 6th Type R, and my 3rd EP3.

It drives just as I thought it would, in dire need of steering feel, needs an LSD and it tramlines like a tw@t. But it's comfortable and it's quick, the cabin is roomy and I can get in and out without pulling a muscle every time.

I'm not sure if I'll have it for long, need to put OEM parts back on and then make a decision.

Here it is as it stands today, generic iPhone photo's and will do some SLR ones soon.

Yes I know the wheels are gash, I hope to get rid ASAP.

Performance:

Gruppe M
Custom exhaust (no idea what it is to be honest, it's loud!)

Suspension/Chassis:

J's Racing front strut
Eibach springs and fast road setup
Camber arms (need to check on brand)

Interior:

Premier Recaro seats
JDM red carpet
JDM red matts
Facelift door cards
Mugen gear knob

Exterior/misc:

SFS Intake Hose
JDM Wind deflectors
18" Satin Black Kato Kochi
6000k HID kit
White LED Sidelights
Tinted windows

ICE:

Alpine IVA-W502R
12" 1200w JBL subwoofer
600w JBL amplifier
Front and rear Focal speakers

Pics updated.

Going to book it in to TGM for a once over, geometry tweak, and a quick service. The brakes are pretty sh!te, and they're brand new, so need that looking at, unless of course EP3 ones are dog turd and the DC2 ones are amazing, either way, they don't instil much confidence at all and I can feel the ABS cutting in way too soon.
 
some good bits there for the cash paid. those wheels are shocking though lol no one with sense will buy those!
