EP3 Type R

[EP3TYPER]

Well thats why I brought the skirts as I knew they where identical. As for the front I am assuming someone will definitely do the JDM model.

I am almost 100% seibon does them

VIS parts are on alot of UKDM cars, they would be the same as the JDM ones I assume?

hey guys, sorry to jump into the middle, but im just wondering by any chance you guys know if the dc5r uses the same handbrake cable as our ep3? i believe mine is stretched and needs to be replaced

as stated above check the pads first..

- loosen the handbreak cable
- with the engine off use a large flat bladed screwdriver to release the auto adjusting arms inside each caliper to reset
- start the engine and pump the brake pedal a few time to get the adjusters to set properly
- now adjust the cable

hope this helps somewhat

Ok guys can anyone confirm if the Preface and FL bonnet from the EU's are the same as ours?

Hi guys,

What exhaust size should i be running? ive been told either 3" or 2.5". Isnt 3" too big for an n/a 2L car?
Just wanted your inputs before i go ahead and buy one.

Thanks

2.25-2.5 is reasonable, 3 is unreasonable.

ANy chasis damage?

May be looking at a new front. Possible shock and spring replacement too. front bar definitely needs replacing. I still think you should be able to get it roadworthy again as long as you get it all signed off by am engineer

sigh. i wonder if i can negoitate with justcar to get me a face lift front. but i highly doubt it

Your panel beater generally is the one who you would negotiate that with. If you know a panel beater I'm sure he could get the FL front for you...If not my panel beater could do it. )

From experience though..I just had a small hole in my front bumper that damaged my front bar, radiator and air con condenser and since most panel beaters around have BARELY worked on our cars...sourcing parts is a HUGEEE headache and expect a waiting a long wait if you need parts from japan. Ultimate Jap in Smithfield has a an ep3...call them up and see what's left on the car. Otherwise talk to slowly a member on here...he has a red ep3 which still has some body parts on it if I am not mistaken.
