Its pretty close to bolt on bolt off.

yes you can do it, but is it worth it cos in the end itll cost close to same as buying an EP3.

theres a lot of custom thing u need to do and you need to get rid or trim a few of the cars bits.

rad support has to be trimmed to fit the motor
fire wall has to be cut to fit exhaust
bits of the motor webbing has to be trimmed to fit in the bay

hi guys,need more info...can EP3 rear disc fit to EU3 since handbrake at diferent place...EU3 on the left foot brake pedal..while EP3 besides front seats...

[Riced_Civic]

if the just rotors then no.

full conversion Yes.

eu3 handbrake is in a similar position to the ep3. the eu3 doesn't have a handbrake near the foot pedal like in some cars.

[toyaracing]

yess its true..a bit diff. i asked many ppl.,and they said it can b done wif slightly mod.. hehe

[Civic__vi]

nice bro...

[bbds]

dont waste your money, not worth it imo.

[toyaracing]

for me it worth it..becoz in malaysia EP3 price range around AUD38000.00 to AUD40000.00...i got my EU3 just AUD15000.00 only..EP3 Front cut around AUD5500.00 to AUD6500.00..stil a lot diff. compared to EP3 price..im going to make my EU3 to be EP3 4doors wif K20a Type r inside..hahahahaha...
