EP3 Type R

[UNA91]

anyone gone to a car wash for steam clean on red recaro seats before? Thoughts? My drivers side are going a bit brown so in need of a clean.

note: i've already seen the thread with woolite...

When I first got the car the seats had black patches and gross lol I used a product called 'softly wool wash' from woolies and mixed it with water in a spray bottle; then just scrub it until its soaps up and let it sit. Then use a cloth with a bucket of clean water and wring it out till its slightly damp and wipe the soap of

was it spotless afterwards?

Exactly why I'd rather piece of mind with clips. You have the option of adding tape too!

JDM Concept are cheaper (I got quotes) than going through jesse streeter, rhd and ooparts; It's still the best option.

Have you tried PR [Perfect Run]? RHDJapan is the most expensive, even more expensive than Greenline!

IIRC, they have to ship it to them in Europe, then ship to you in Australia...

It looked like a whole new seat. I guess you can clean it once to clean most of the stuff, then go over it again concentrating on the more dirty areas. Just let em air dry good otherwise your car will smell like wet socks lol I make it a habit to clean my seats atleast once a month now.

Anyone able to recommend some good coils for the EP3, prefering to get them sooner than later and possibably not spending over $2000 on them.

BC BR for cheap, low coils that can handle track relatively well.

Buddyclub V1 for stance (don't know much about them but wouldn't track on them)

I've got neomax silver's from shift performance. bumpy ride but cheap at $1300.

idk if my mid pipe was always this low to the ground or it became lower after the plm headers install...

The cat section has excellent clearance:

The midpipe however is about 10cms clearance above the ground, but it's not sagging or anything...

This is my drop height


Is there anyway to make it sit a little higher? I can see there is a little more space on the underbody for it to be sit up higher

[doosra]

my car sits lower than that and still get good clearance. same as stock exhaust system.

[UNA91]

yea i thought it was abit low, idk if its because they had modified the test pipe section since they said it was about 2 inches longer and didn't bolt up to the mid pipe. My resonator also looks lower than usual, about the same height as the mid pipe, but it has no scrape marks so it must've sat higher before since my mid pipe has always been all scraped up. One thing about this headers is that it doesn't have hangers like the oem one did near the cat. Maybe i can get the hangers where it connects the axle back shortened, would that help? I put a jack under the exhaust and it seems that it can be made to sit a little higher.

You can see theres abit of room between the heatshield and the pipe

Take it to an exhaust shop and they can probably help you tuck it. However most aftermarket exhausts for the EP3 are designed like this so that it doesn't foul on the chassis.

[butterfingers]

its like everything in the ep3s design is against going low.
