Ok I was bored as hell today and so I decided to play with my EP because it was just him and I today :D I love my motor, it's so smooth. I can balance a penny on my motor with it running at idle, here are two short videos:

Impressive eh? Can you all do the same? Those were two different pennies, I had to try two just to make sure I wasn't fooling myself. Those two balancer shafts in the block does a good job ;) And I also took a few pictures of my EP today, here's one:

nice!
did you get that HFP front lip after you got the car? Looks like the rear valance too . . . are you going to get the side skirts?
I might consider that front lip over the CTR lip (I think you have to get the whole CTR front bumper if you go that way too)
I have the motor mount inserts... that wont happen on my car, but then again, I can launch and shift without engine lurch... :angel:

Yeah I got the HFP lip after I purchased the car. I got the lip from JSIR from this board. I don't have the HFP rear lip...wish I did though. Eventually I'll finish the whole kit off with CTR and HFP parts. I wanna stick with geniune Honda stuff for fitment and quality issues.
The USDM CTR kit is out incase you don't know, so you can get a USDM CRT lip to fit your current bumper. But I'd wait for the Mugen USDM lip...it'll be worth the wait cause that lip is NICE! ep_penezy or something like that already has the Mugen lip on his car, it should be out within a month or so.
And I love my EP. The motor is really smooth, I can't feel anything inside the car. I was really surprised when I sat inside the Type S at school cause you could really feel the vibrations in the interior.

You better be a female. :p j/k. I came up with this because a long time ago I remember Lexus bragging about their LS400 being able to balance a penny on the intake manifold. I was like, shit suckers I can balance a penny on my valve cover where there's valves and cams moving and spinning inside. :D
