It might be too much hassle to dismantle the existing HID wiring just to change the bulb n balast.......a suggestion anyway. :)
Bought it second hand (though never used or primered/painted) for $200 off someone from Firesport. It's a replica one made by TopMix in Hong Kong. Made perfectly though as the lip fits perfectly flush and I even got the bumper cut to have the air vents to cool the brakes. Really love the look of it.Quote:

Hey all, does anybody know which fuse powers the head unit?? Mine is dead :(
Think it is 10Amps, though you should be able to check by pulling out the existing fuse that powers it.Quote:

If u pull out the fuse cover either it is on the inside of this or somewhere there, there is a fuse diagram that should indicate where it isQuote:

if the EU is sold in america ( as a different model ) check this site out
http://oemacuraparts.com/partlocator...?siteid=214055
its in the US - but you can find almost anything relevant to our EP3's , for a fraction of the cost here. Shipping is cheap too !
USDM lights would be shining in the wrong direction as they are LHD.
Just look up the net for wreckers in Syd and Melb, someone will have used EU lights for sale.
You mean .....one would be aimed up and one down , opposite of RHD cars ?Quote:

You could try this place in Sydney. I have in the past and they have been reasonable.Quote:

Where as lights designed for use with LHD cars have a cut-off like this:
____/____/
RHD lights are designed to direct more light to the left side of the road and vice-versa for LHD lights - so oncoming drivers don't get blinded.

Hi, I was at Heasman steering today doing camber adjustment and alignment. Somehow they managed to get only -0.5 degree camber up-front with my -2 degree camber bolts. Reason being the knucle on wheel hub connecting with the suspension is hitting against the strust body. Has anyone experienced this? BTW guys at Heasman are awesome!
I don't have any Spreet vouchers but sounds like fun, I am keen!Quote:

Hey guys, any ideas on my issue???
mmm having that issue again with the grinding/clicking/squeaking/knocking sound when i turn the wheel left/right @ low speed (max20km/h)
took it to my mechanic , hes not sure what the problem is (said it could be driveshaft issue or powersterring motor).
i mentioned it could be the steering rack although he said that was all fine..
any ideas fellas?
Hmm..something I wouldn't mind tempting to do! :)

Terrible bodykit though! I'd go matte white over matte black for an EP3.
Any recommendations for catbacks everyone? Currently looking at one to go with my Toda headers... RM01a, Toda or Js Racing 60RS? Thoughts?
I've got the rm01a, love it because its not too loud and not too quiet its just right. Also with the rm, felt gains bottom-mid range which i wanted to improve. Toda exhaust is really loud, driving behind steve once and couldnt even hear my own car ;)
haha wtf ? sif its loud ! its like 1 of the quietest exhausts ive owned. Only really loud on vtec and thats about it. Doesnt turn cops heads either.Quote:

J's racing Ti is light as. approximately 2.2kg.
Thoughts on the stainless steel 60RS that JDM Concept sells? The titanium one is out of my budget haha.Quote:

However, I am judging on the basis that I've got a titanium fx 50RS for the Jazz. Comparing that to a mate's J's racing 50RS c304r, the stainless steel sounds like any normal cannon exhaust in my opinion. By that I mean, it sounds droney, farty and low pitched. To me that sounds crap but maybe not to others.
It's the same for the js'racing c304r for civic fd1's. Sounds droney, farty and low pitched.
So my personal conclusion is to only get the titanium if you're getting j's racing brand. Otherwise it's just bling but ordinary cannon noise.
Thanks for the input mate. Might just go with the full TODA system then. A droning exhaust would be too much for me - need the EP3 as a daily right now.
if you are just putting on an exhaust (header / cat / catback ) dont bother. It will be noise / drone and not much else !
F&&%%K bought Kiddracing headers 3 weeks ago, still hadnt turned up so I email the guy and he cancels the order. Apparently he was out of stock, then told me they dont ship international, then told me the order wasnt processed correctly. I still havent got a straight answer. Not happy at all about this but at least i got my money back (minus 60c due to the exchange rate).
Any suggestions on another set of headers, im definitely not dealing with kiddracing again
Get in on the TODA group buy over at ClubITR.Quote:
