As per the previous pages, I originally bought a new NHB EP3 about 8 years ago but then after a few kids succumbed to 4- door ease and got a 3MPS.

After boosting for a few years we needed two cars so the wife got a new gimp suv and I picked up a 7 year old bread van roughly 6 months ago. Not done anything of any real merit yet but thought I would share/bore you to death if you choose to read…

The roof rubber strips were looking mouldy and in a bad way so thanks to advice on here I used a rattle can of Hycote and now all good. M1ke on here provided a window rattle stop-kit:

The bulbs are lame/fugly so added Silvatec front and rear indicators coupled with Phillips X-treme Vision LED 6k side lights and PIAA extreme white plus H1 bulbs.

Graeme01 on here has been very helpful to date and supplied & fitted a Seibon OEM style carbon spoiler:

I had a Fujitsubo Legalis R on my previous EP3 so thought I would stick with same brand but try the RM01A this time, imported from RHD Japan and fitted by ABP:

I made friends with Matt at Injection Imports and Stevie at Grinspeed so thought it would be ideal to have the oil changed to Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 5W40 engine oil, whilst using Project MU magnetic oil filter and drain bolt:
