I remember I also put a strip of double side tape on the inside edge of both the large clamps. Which gives it a bit more bite when tightening them. Again I put it there to minimise any noise.
I left paper on the double sided tape so it was easy to undo and spin if needed.

yes.. mine does the same aswell but maybe not cruching hard...
i remember once it crunched pretty hard... but that was coz i was rolling back and i selected reverse and %%^&*#*&$*#@*$
not sure if i was rolling back slowly or not.. but all i remember is that i was rolling back and selected reverse and crunched!!

Yep, happens because reverse gear has no synchros.

What's the compatibility of DC5R to EP3R regarding catback? As far as I can see from OH/Google, everything should fit except with some hanger issues and the tip will poke out more?
Cause my friend wanted a Kakimoto Fullmega N1+ Rev for his EP3R but they're discontinued... DC5R is still in production/available?
The other plan was to get the Axleback Philip Lee has and have a custom centre pipe made for it...
And it seems FGK has discontinued their Headers soo fun for me to find him a replacement...
NB: Before you start on the get a replica/USDM/etc he wants only JDM cause that's how he is so please don't bother me with your 2c
I doubt DC5 muffler part will be a bolt on part witout modding the rear pipe around the swaybar and control arm.

Try going into 4th gear first then into R
Or just plain stop the car before attempting to select reverse ;0)

Would i run into any fitment issues with 17x8 +35 all round? Currently lowered to about a finger gap, looks like i might need to roll fenders?
vtak + jrsc = bwwaaaahinneeeee
IF GUNS don't kill people, people kill people does that mean that toasters don't toast toast, toast toast toast?

Heres how the car sits atm, currently sitting on 17x7" +43, fairly close to oem wheel setup.
not sure how you guys measure ride height since i've never seen the car at stock height, but i guess its a little higher than finger gap from the top...maybe like finger and a half? lol i'm confident the fronts will fit fine without scrubbing on 8" +35 unless i'm swinging hard into a corner maybe. What about the rears?
