EP3 Type R

[Shaun]

i found place with a ep3 Civic type R in melbourne today! wooo! a little too expensive though, was like 30k for an 01 or 02 i forget, looked clean though and atleast i got to have a closer look, i noticed the recaros don't seem to hug me as tight as my evo3 does, but the shifter position feels real good, i didnt have a chance to testdrive it but from what i saw its pretty much as i expected and i like it. quick question though, do all JDM type Rs come with a UK flag next to the civic flag? coz i would have expected that to be only on the uk delivered cars.

All Ep3 chasis was made in the UK

yes i know this, im questioning the flag badge on the back, did the JDM models have that flag as well?

[Philip Lee]

JDM has the flag but UK didn't have it.

[Shaun]

sweet, i thought it would have been the other way around thats why i was a bit confused, thanks for that dude.

yeah my civic type r im purchasing has got the uk badge but although made in uk its been imported from japan so its got jap mods, eg the lsd and seats etc.

For 30k you could get a decent 2nd hand s2k

ep3 > s2k > fn2

There was a few on J-Spec too but most of them last about 3 days before they're gone. The Mailing list is just a show of some stuff they have... If you need someone to contact on J-Spec for stuff they don't show, give me a PM
