EP3 Type R

Hey guys, changed my primary o2 sensor over over the weekend as the old one died. CEL light went away but after driving it for a bit it came back on, any ideas on whats going on?

Best you go get the code scanned and see what it comes up with. Maybe your second o2 sensor is gone too. What o2 sensor did you get?

Does anyones shifter feel like theres alot of play in it? Like the plastic pivot ball joint is worn, just makes shifting feel so notchy... is there a way to replace it? or should i start considering the BC short shifter? I've replaced the shifter bushings with solid ones and also have the mtec stiff shifter springs but it didnt really help.

Yeah thought so, 2.25 seemed small. I'm interested in the BBC pro spec exhaust (not spec 3 which is loud) but they state is designed for the uk/us ep3 market. But thought it would fit the jdm cause what of they get aftermarket headers? Wouldn't they need to swap to our jdm sway bar anyway?

Ever get the feeling you shouldn't have said something? XD

lmao BBC pro spec exhaust


at least 2.5.

3 is better

depends how far you want to go with ur car

You would think BBC is mininmum 10"....

So slack XD

I kinda get that, when I shift it's just a bit stiff and harder to get into gear than other cars i've driven. I was told it's all K-series gear boxes, not to sure but it doesn't really bother me, but if you find a way to fix it; letme know!

Take apart your console and access your shifter, take a snoop around the shifter to check it out.

^^ Lolol I just pretend I didn't mention it >.>
<.<

And with the worn shifter ball, as far as I know the only way to fix it is to replace the whole shifter box. Anyone here running a BC (not bbc) short shifter? I hear it causes great stress to the synchros

Worth it? If you want crappier reception then of course it is!

I bought mine because the stock one looked massive and was a weird contrast to my Js Racing wing.

I got my short antenna from eBay and tested it and reception is same but what I've noticed is that he ep3 doesn't need an antenna. I had the antenna off and the reception stayed the same... J's racing antenna for $100.. Definitely not worth it
