So,finally got my hands on this after missing it first time round due to house purchase,luckily enough it came up again 8 months later.after following the build of this car on the forum and seeing it on track it has always been my favourite ep3.i've owned ep3's for 10 years but nothing like this,so I nearly sh@t myself when I first drove it.
I bought it 6months ago but it's been sat in the garage over winter apart from the odd drive here and there to keep it sweet.so now the weather is here time to play.

I wish I could take credit for building it but credit has to go to bren for building a truly awesome beast.i wouldn't normally buy a car that's modified to this extreme as I'd rather do it myself to know it's been done properly but this car is an exception,Brens OCD attention to detail is insane here's a few pics for those of you who don't know it.
And a massive thanks to bren for being my encyclopedia on it. [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

nice. you going do anything to it?

[shaRRpy]

No mate its perfect as it is so i dont want to change things just for the sake of it.just maybe the odd small thing here and there.

[*nub*]

cool. if it were me i'd put the original H back on (although it doesnt look as bad as some others) and get the rears tinted. how much did you pay for it if you dont mind saying?

[paul02ctr]

amazing machine

credit to Bren

my fav ep3 too, enjoy it fella

[Superman001]

Yeah I don't think I would change much if I got hold of Bren's old car, maybe just some light rear tints as has already been mentioned.

Just search brens posts, only need to go back a couple of pages

Truly epic car in full flight!

[shaRRpy]

I had rear tints on my other ep3's so it's a change not to have them and I do like the crisp clear look.plus the cage is too smart too hide.

You won't like it, it's a pre face

[NHB_EP3_Chris]

Glad to see it's still in the same condition.

Imo this was the main attraction on track at Japfest 2.

Still not as fast as yours though

Stop trolling me dood!

Awesome awesome awesome machine, Bren did a fantastic job on this car. Glad to see it back on the forum. Will you be tracking it? kinda be a waste not to.

[shaRRpy]

Definitely bud that's the plan once I get my track wheels and tyres sorted.picking up some wheels next week. I did a bit of a track day at Bedford autodrome back in February as I just wanted a little taster,but it didn't last long.i did the first couple of laps just warming up and as soon as I started opening her up I got black flagged for noise.

Does Bedford have a low noise limit? I don't think Bren had any bother at the 105db limit

[shaRRpy]

Yeah ash bedford is proper low,passed the static easy but it was the drive by that did it.the limit is only 87.5db I think I was around 90 so not a great deal over but at Bedford one strike and your off. :bad-words:

[R'ash]

Really! That's a bit harsh of them! Car's still looking as good as ever [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]
