Get it checked out thoroughly by a mechanic that atleast knows imports and hondas. Check it wasn't cut and joined somewhere....I found a few when i bought mine that bad been in serious accidents and If i didn't take my friend who's a panel beater I would've never noticed.

    Also on parts, anything panel related is hard to find. There are a few ep3's now that are being used for wrecking so it's made it a bit easier...but stuff is still hard to find, much on the contrary to JohnO's experience ringing honda is never a 5 minute thing and never did I get anything overnighted to me...LOL. They wanted 4 weeks for tie rod ends. 4 WEEKS!

    Also my clutch is really heavy...wth? Why are all your clutches so light?
    My clutch is also very heavy. I thought it was weird when everyone elses was light.

    clutch feel is directly related to pressure plate type and or wear/issue with pressure plate. That is a heavy duty or organic clutch pressure plate will feel heavier to use than a OE part

    best to speaks to him directly. Tell him Philip referred lol

    try not to be bias but it's a great car. i didn't want springs/coilovers initially becos i thought the ride would be too harsh but once i had a ride in his car, i went to get some Super Street.

    That second one with the usdm headlights is eggbox's old car. I think his words were, "nugget engine".

    Hi Dee-y

    I actually bought this car, it was me that put the deposit down and picked it up today.

    I am probably well placed to comment on 'contemplation' given i am new to honda's. I was lookign at ep3's, dc2r's, silvia's, skyline's and all the other 20k sports cars. I was drawn to the honda as i believe it is a better package. it drives fantastic and feels really well made. I suggest you take one for a spin and decide for yourself, i am glad i made the honda choice!
