EP3 Type R

[Philip Lee]

just the general used car stuff really (which includes rust). maybe the mounts and steering column noise.

[EP3EVA]

Im getting mine through a Dealer up here in NSW, getting them to import it for me and all. $24500 is all they are asking, and its got under 30000kms

All I want to know is what else I have to look for before I accept the car?

Engine Mounts?

Gear Box Mounts?

Rust?

damn a dealer asking 24.5k cheap ass,. and is under 30,000k's

ask to see the auction paper with KM on it ....
get it inspected ... you get a basic warranty 3 months if you buy from a dealer ... so if anything f$%ks up they have to fix it anyway..

Auction Papers, and extensive pictures of the car will be in my possession before I give a green light to start bidding on the car.

And I getting a lil over 3mnths warranty.

under 30000kms is pretty much unreal unless dealer provide you auction sheet.

engine mount issue is common prob for K20A but its just normal wear and tear.

hmm the mounts could some how tell the story of the car i think, eg..if the mounts have issue's at 30,000kms is:

A: the car must have Race real hard for it to wear the mounts way faster.

B: kms has been touch.


yeah i just hit 70,000kms plus my mounts still looking good,..plus i got a Spoon engine damper on the driver side mount to make it wear faster...

OEM mounts are weak, thats why ppl upgraded to inovative,spoon or mugen mounts etc.

You would be surprised at how many EP3s i have seen come up in the auctions with less than 30000kms.. Log books will be supplied.. Plus if there is more marks on the car than the auction sheet shows i dont have 2 take it.. And they have 2 get another 1. But they will only bid on cars i say too..
