JSIR:As for torque numbers, I used 20 ft lbs on the bushing brackets that go into the frame. The endlinks just get snugged down tightly. Where they attach to the chasis/frame I torqued them to 40 ft lbs (two attachment points on chasis behind brake assemblies).

hope this helps :cool:

[phatfreeza]

loving the wheels and the headlights... looks sharp! oh yeah the wing makes it soooo much prettier :)

[estebones]

those are some pimp ass wheels man, it sort of remind me of the mugen hatch...ya know that black one that was something like a prototype oif the hatch...

either way, it looks nice man

[03jeffSI]

[civicSIracer]

nice ride man.. those wheels are getting kinda trendy but they are very very cick man.. keep up the good work

[NuG]

sweet ride, I love your wing.

How are the 17" c10's? Are they heavy? Do you feel a difference in braking?

That avatar is trippy, it looks like the honda sign is in a dog bowl. It has a 3D effect going on

[Ep3 No.2]

Nice car. What kind of parking light bulbs are those? They look a lot more amber than stock. Also, how did you mount your license plate holder? Zip ties?

[ep88]

i bought it from si_dragnstyl a yr ago.. it's the ebay ctr wing that you still need to grind the mounts to fit the US ep3. you can either get the renova or the spoilerdepot wing = no modifications needed :D

[JHM-EP3]

hey ep88,

a question about your wheels, are they really 17's cuz i can't find them anywhere. i heard they only sell up to 16".
if that's not true can you tell me where you got your rims so i can order them cuz i really want to put 17's on my ride. btw, are ur rims 4 or 5 lug...i have the 04 ep3 and that's 5 lug.

[Low Rider]

"...we're in the pipe, five by five..." ;)

[Ep3 No.2]

hey jhm-ep3 they do still make the c10s in bronze is just that they are low on supply and high in demand. you might wanna check out www.jdmwheels.net they get new shipments of there rotas evey other week.
