I am thinking

Fast Road Setup £165
Rear JDM ARB £150-£200 fitted esp if new drop links required
Hondata Air box mod Free
KN Drop in Air filter £50
Oil Change (including £30 labour or so)£80

£495

Can anyone think of any better mods for that money. You probaley can - but would like to see your thoughts. I am going spend £500 max tarting the car up.

My EP3 currently stock.

Go ITG for the filter and try and get a 2nd hand cheap short shifter if you can stretch to it.

already bought an KN drop in filter for £30 from a member on here :thumbup:

what does that do NN and how much?

[Newannaive]

stiffens up the engine mounts.

My gay little review thingy... http://civictype-r.co.uk/forum/viewtopi ... 3&t=163907 ..


bang for buck one of the best mods you can do, up there alongside the JDM ARB imo :salut:

nice one bud - thanks will have a read now :thumbup:


Any other contenders for best pound for pound mods for handling/performance.

Keep them coming :thumbup:

[Newannaive]

no worries, they make such a difference to the car. Downchanging and engine braking are effortless, makes for a much more aggressive repsonse if you know what I mean, you can beat the car up a bit more. :salut:

JDM ARB.
DS2500, braided lines and some fluid.

[Wingnut1878]

Do the oil change yourself, jack the front up, undone one bolt, catch oil replace filter, fill up.... £50

Fast road set up.... good idea, improves alot.... £165

Hondata airbox mod with filter, great idea i had it for a while before my ITG....£50

Rear JDM Anti Roll Bar, again jack the rear up, cut old droplinks off as they're a bitch to do replace.... £110 tops

Ferodo DS2500 pads....£85? i think

Skunk 2 weighted gear knob for the money you saved on labour...£40

[kingofdbrits]

remap the turbo for £490

[devil84]

JDM ARB installed now and my gosh the rear feels so much more planted and stiffer.

I am not sure if I am just imagining it but the car feels so much better!

Will keep you posted in the upcoming weeks how the EP3 fares!!

[karl.hart]
