it could be your driveshafts that is worn out, or sometimes the cv boot is split open and exposed to weather and dirt going into the cv joints and damaging it. I dont know what the symptoms of a worn cv joint is but since its on the drivers side only it can very well be a possiblity, you can even check this out by yourself if you just look into the wheel and see if there is grease all over the place. Best of luck.

has anyone here got a mugen airbox for their ep3's, how is it compared to stock?

**JohnO** · 21-06-2010 09:56 PM

thanks for the quick replies guys, well i recently serviced the car cause i didnt want to wait for it to hit 60k still along way and oils/filter was pretty crap so yeah had to change everything. probably jack the car up tmr and fiddle around. cause the sound came from a pretty low spot when i first heard it, thought it was my wheel joints or my mech dropped a tool and didnt take it out and it was rattling but there was nothing.

hey eskimo i wouldnt waste my time with a mugen airbox/js racing box looks like a branded oem airbox, probably a different filter is used thats better than oem or structure of it for better airflow, mugen airbox is gonna need the mugen grill. since i got my gruppe m on it seems awhole lot different pricey but it wasnt an issue, could get cai? hear its bang for buck leaves a hole in your splash guard

and plenty of space in your engine bay.

If you want OEM look....then do hondata box mod or mugen!

Otherwise CAI is good!

Hey all,

I ve just acquired myself an 04 ep3, just wondering any of you people know where i can find myself a manual for this car?

I had a look at the hondahookup forums they've got the 02 manual. Is it still the same?

If anyone can help greatly appreciated.
