I woulnd't touch it at 14k. It doesn't have JDM headlights so it could be the EDM. The guy complies them himself so if it's been in any accident or anything shifty has been done to it you wouldn't know as the regulations that prohibited you from buying a lemon dont really exist as he just wants to register the car. Get it checked out thoroughly by a mechanic that atleast knows imports and hondas. Check it wasn't cut and joined somewhere....I found a few when i bought mine that bad been in serious accidents and If i didn't take my friend who's a panel beater I would've never noticed.
Also on parts, anything panel related is hard to find. There are a few ep3's now that are being used for wrecking so it's made it a bit easier...but stuff is still hard to find, much on the contrary to JohnO's experience ringing honda is never a 5 minute thing and never did I get anything overnighted to me...LOL. They wanted 4 weeks for tie rod ends. 4 WEEKS!
Also my clutch is really heavy...wth? Why are all your clutches so light?
My clutch is also very heavy. I thought it was weird when everyone elses was light.

clutch feel is directly related to pressure plate type and or wear/issue with pressure plate. That is a heavy duty or organic clutch pressure plate will feel heavier to use than a OE part
Hey Phil,
you know what his best offer would be? The car looks great!
best to speaks to him directly. Tell him Philip referred lol
try not to be bias but it's a great car. i didn't want springs/coilovers initially becos i thought the ride would be too harsh but once i had a ride in his car, i went to get some Super Street.

Np might give him an enquiry, though it says deposit taken Annnd i guess I'd really like to sell my current car first as well hah.
ahh yes, I was unfortunate enough to purchase a good condition ep3r (so IMG and State roads claims) with a dud engine, then got dicked around while getting it fixed

Hi Dee-y
I actually bought this car, it was me that put the deposit down and picked it up today.
I am probably well placed to comment on 'contemplation' given i am new to honda's. I was lookign at ep3's, dc2r's, silvia's, skyline's and all the other 20k sports cars. I was drawn to the honda as i believe it is a better package. it drives fantastic and feels really well made. I suggest you take one for a spin and decide for yourself, i am glad i made the honda choice!
