EP3 Type R

[sai_ANN]

in all of my previous manual car, i can release the clutch to fiction point add a little throttle and go. with EP3, i have to rev it up before releasing the clutch to avoid stalling. i guess that's the con for quick reving high redline car.

*shrugs*

i guess it's just a matter of adjusting how you drive?

yeah but i dun put a lot of kays and this can be annoying as i have to pay attention at take off. not fun sitting in traffic jams.

LOL...nothing more embarrassing that stalling on a hill during peak hour traffic!

This is the one ill prob get, if i can get it to 22 ill b happy, nething lower then that is a steal it lands late this week and ill test drive that particular one when its complienced have driven one b4 and i love it especially the shifter position, i dont want to do 2 much work on it so I/H/E and some sussy work should be ample, but im a sucker for QTB's

thats IMG's ad, top blokes, most of the ep3s running around are from them.

woot??!!

Jdm Ep3 R is So easy to drive!! better not be any 1st car coz you wont able to drive older cars, well i drove my dad 99' Civic vti-r(em1) after driving the EP3 for less than 1/2 year ,that em1 is so to hard for me to get used to it

like i have issue taking off and stuff.

I wouldnt get a EP3 unless it had log books, and the electronic scanner that they usually come with to say that these low kms are genuine. Before i purchased mine i had a look at a couple which were around the 40xxxkm mark, some of them were in poor condition.

So if ur planning on buying a EP3 make sure u get what u pay for, and try to get one with logbooks to prove that they are genuine kms. I purchased my car with a 75kms and i got what i paid for, at the end of the day atleast i knew they were genuine kms and not wound back like most of them on the market. Thought ill give u a heads up =)

I totally agree, its not about kms....its about condition. Check a few cars out remember you get what you pay for. Don't cheap out on one with "low kms". Explore the market and arrange to drive a few EP3s for sale for example from private sellers as well.

Hope you find the one that suits you

i always go on the assumption thatevery import has the clock wound back terrible to say but its a common trade when they go to the auctions in japan... im going to go and drive it first and negotiate then leave so i dont look desperate, then come back again with a mechanic to c every little thing wrong with it and use it a leverage for bargenning, at the end of the day i know they have to make there money but ill try keep as much as mine as i can ... anoher thing, the EP3's arnt drive by wire are they?... cause that would suck

[Philip Lee]

i believe most of the dodgy kays are done AFTER getting the car at Jp auctions.

usually the kays on the auction paper is reliable. if they're suspicous, they will note it on the paper.

EP3s are not drive by wire. what's wrong with DBW tho?
