Hello all :smt039
just thought i'd introduce myself to the forum. My names Ty & i'm 22, i am a complete newbie to the Honda world.. I have not long sold my Jdm 98 spec glanza V turbo as i fancied something much more reliable & to be honest safer. I picked up this little beauty yesterday for a barging price with a few minor body work issues.. The guy who had it before me had it for 5 years and had the car repainted in championship white. The overall paint job it's self was not all that but i didn't let this hold me back as my job is a motor body vehicle specialist (Panel beater/Sprayer) The car it's self apart from the obvious scuffs is in very good condition. i viewed a few ep3's before this 1 and this was by far the best, The car it's self has had 3 previous owners & as been very well maintained..
The spec as follows: 2004 Ep3 ctr
Full service history (73k)
HPI clear, very straight shell
Tein lowering springs
K&N typhoon intake system
Tinted rear windows
The cars pretty much stock & to be honest i'm in love with it lol.. I thought i would be disappointed with going from boost to a N/A but Vtec is awesome :lol:
My plans for now are to get it into the bodyshop and give it a full respray, focus on getting it back to its former glory minty fresh.. Ounce the cars looking up to standard i will be going down the modding route & hoping for bigger power hopefully 230+ Anyways Thanks for looking here is a few pics of the motor
This is how i picked it up yesterday, (dirty as foook)
Picture of damage to rear bumper.. (easy fix)
Filthy engine bay (before)
Clean bay (after.. still needs a bit more attention)
Few shots from last night with my friend in he's EP2.. Also i am sorry for the picture quality. Shitty Iphone 4 :-/
Could somebody shed some light on this also.. I opened my boot & found this Honda cd changer, it this a Oem extra or do all civic's come with this ?
