EP3 Type R

[butterfingers]

Hey just wondering where you guys buy OEM parts from? I'm after a drive belt and MTF. Would you go to your Honda dealership for this? Thanks.

Yea but they have to order from Japan.

Dealerships would usually ask you to go the their honda parts store, but their mtf should be readily available off their shelves.

Yeah I just picked up a few bottles of MTF from my local dealer today

Has anyone done a Jdm dc5 brembo front brake conversion? apart from needing s2k size rotors and possibly spacers for clearance; through searching, i'd apparently need jdm dc5 lca, axles and knuckles. Thing is i'm not sure if they are talking about the non-jdm ep3 and whether or not this applies to the jdm ep3

Spotted a ep3 with white volks on the m4 exit to parra just now. Waved and said hi.

Thanks lads. I'll give them a go. Tried Supercheap and Repco for the belt. No chance whatsoever.

Does any one have a diy on how to pop out the tie rod ends and remove the whole tie rod from the steering bracket?

Undo the nut until it is flush with the end of the bolt. Start hammering. Did this once before. Came off pretty easily.

Or just use a ball joint seperator. But that's for the tie rod end. The tie rod itself you need to get under the rubber boot and get wrenchin! Not an easy job.

Sure about this? Cause there's a set of calipers for sale that I might consider getting, and I'll have to source some s2k rotors. Is it even worth upgrading to brembos besides the bling? lol
