Yeah need whole new headlights. Too many scratches on mine left by the previous owner. One of the downsides of getting a used car.

Have u got a bigger sway bar at the rear of the ED? Ep3 has nice oversteer through a corner, power off a bit and the ass of it comes around.... fun IMO

never tried Redline engine oil.

but i have tried their gearbox oil in the past (not in the civic). seems alright but i wouldn't put it in my civic tho. heard horror story on clubitr.....

**rpm boy** · 02-04-2009 04:30 PM

why do u want to put redline in it? get royal purple or go to honda and get it from there... spent more now and u wont have to rebuild your engine for a long time

**ITRDC2** · 02-04-2009 04:41 PM

i think redline is not the cheap one at all, and actually redline is the most recommended engine oil i heard around

**chargeR** · 02-04-2009 05:02 PM

I use Red Line and it works okay. I have used both 10W-30 and 10W-40 in my car for the last 2.5 years, 15 track days in all weather, and my car is yet to blow up. My car is on 125,000kms now and I started using it when it was on around 70,000kms.

Red Line is too expensive for daily use though, just use FEO and change it often.

My K20 isn't JDM though
