I got quoted a stupid price from Honda ($3100.00). Went through O'Briens who went through some supplier in SYD and it set me back $905.00 but my insurance covered the first $750.00. So $500.00 doesn't seem that bad. It did take about 2 months to actually get the screen though. Guys at Prestige motorsport I think may have a hook up.

getting one from obriens.. total cost inc. fitting = $504! not too bad.. honda quoted me $680ish NOT inc. fitting for a genuine one.. but i would have to wait 3-4 weeks. then the price of fitting would have raped me.

so your going through Obrien? coz i remembered Steve tried them and they could get it or something coz the aussie model is different to ours.
Steve I finally booked mine to get it replaced heheheh

hmmm that is a surprise. Just double check they arent confused with the EU model because o'brian did quote me to replacing my windscreen with the EU because they thought it was the same. I then asked what would happened if it didnt fit and they said i was stuck with the new windscreen. I went to check out a EU windscreen at a auto glass shop in campise and they measured out a spare EU windscreen to my ep3 and they were different. Just double check brother !

Operator: "Yes we do"
Me: " Can you double check if its for the 3 door or 5 door"
Operator: "It only came in 5 door for a honda civic"
Me: "So your telling me you dont have one for a Honda civic 2003 3 DOOR CIVIC TYPE R"
Operator: "Sure we do but its for a 5 door"

I gave up LOL

Hey, just wondering if Whiteline's DC5 front Camber bolts will work on our EP3's?

Here

Also, without any mods, is it possible to run any sort of negative camber on the front? (say, -0.5 degrees?)

the fixed back brides should be ok as they are side mounted but the reclinable ones need different rails as they are mounted from the bottom.. I have a bride zeta II in my drivers side but its got a bride rail but looking at it, it looks as though the standard seat will work with it as they are side mount as well. What are you doing with your standard seat??? i need one.

so yeah, all is done, i have a new windscreen and it only set me back $524 lol it was $504 then an extra $20 for the top moulding. i could've had my INJEN CAI by now :(

more questions hope you don't mind :)

- trust the japs haha my car only has one key (no fob or second) now i know this might have been covered earlier but with the fob i'm not fussed coz i'll get an aftermarket alarm but the key do i need to take it to honda australia to get it key? (i have pre-fl model)

- can anymore confirm the 'civic' badge on the rear is the same badge as the EU3/sedan badge as mine comes debadged and it looks sort of empty haha wanna get it replaced.

cheers boys
24-09-2009, 10:47 PM

badge is the same so ur sweet there

the key is a problem cause i got the same problem, but i got a key thats been cut but no chip in the key but a separte unti which has the chip in it to click on the imoobilizer, so id go to a jay car or elctrical car place and get a few copies and get some keys cut, thats wat i did

well thats good to hear mate :) now i feel better knowing that our cars windscreens can b replaced alot more easier now. Few of us went through headaches trying to find someone to fit our windscreen on. I was actually going to get a windscreen shipped from japan which was looking around the 2500 mark just to get 1 landed then ontop of that i would have to find someone to fit it.

Yeah set backs suck :( im actually going to b getting new clutch and mayb gears n syncro's for my box soon :(

Yeah its a different sort of worn clutch. My clutch doesn't slip cause the clutch isn't worn out to as if it is smooth. It's just low if you know what mean. The clutch point on my pedal is high aswell. N my car has done 80,000 klms now and has had a few track days n drag days. Also I think my worn clutch is part of my gear crunching problem. Driving around normally gear changing is fine but when I change at 8.5k rpm 2nd gear either won't go in and if I persist it crunches :(

thing is the mugen n1 is already tuned and thats it with it from what i know i could b wrong. Hondata ecu u can tune it to get maximum out of all mods which would equal to more kwatw in the end. Someone correct me if im wrong. Dont get me wrong mugen n1 would b top shit ! any mugen part is good shit really !
