EP3 Type R

Also does anyone know if the dc5 tie rod ends and the ep3 tie rod ends are the same? dc5/ep3 coilovers are interchangeable so should the tie rods also be?

They are different. Not interchangable.

Need to run DC5 tie rod ends. Easy fix would be to run DC5 inverted tie rods

Could you guys read the last post and tell me what he is saying? Because I think I've misinterpreted.

The shift ep was running a 1" drop in the rear and 1.5" in the front with the stock coils, he sent them to the UK if I remember correctly and he said it handled much better than if he had changed the whole coilover and it cost him around $400 or something like that.

But then i guess this wouldn't increase firmness I don't think.
