[Hondatuner87]

Well since the site got messed up and my thread has been lost i decided to make this thread. For the og's on here most of you know/remember me...and for the new comers, heres my k20a2 powered ep3. I bought it when i was 18yrs old back in 2005-2006. Im now 20yrs old. Swap was done just barely a year ago. My car wouldn't be what it is now if it wasn't for mitch (mitchep3typer) he got me the deal on the motor and trans and did the swap for me, as well as street tuned it.

Exterior:

EBAY blacked out headlights
Red jdm h's

Interior:

RSX-S 6speed shift knob
JDM CTR Shift Boot
Buddyclub Spec Short Shifter

Suspension/Wheels/Brakes:

Axxis Ultimate Brake Pads
Rotora Big Brake Slotted Rotors
Tien Basic Full Dampener Suspension
Rota Boost's in 17's

Peformance:

k20a2 motor with rsx-s 6speed transmission
kpro (street tuned by mitch)
dc race header
short ram intake
custom 2.5" exhaust piping (no resonators)
rsx-s muffler
competition stage 4 clutch
competition ultra light flywheel

PICS:

This was her...almost three years ago...pretty much in stock form. Except for suspension and 99-00 civic si wheels

Thank you man, appreciate the comment. I was going for the "sleeper" look i guess you could say.

Yah my moms car is stock, she baby's the hell out of it. Ive never seen her go WOT in it. Yah, most people really dont expect the swap, especially since my exhaust is rather low toned. I remember i had a run in with a sr20'd 240sx and the guy was like wow man that little thing moves. He commented on how low toned my exhaust was until i got on it and said that it was a sleeper.

As of right now. Im in need of some new tires. Im probably going to ditch the ebay lights and just go back to oem. Other then that im puzzled as to what i want to do next in the performance dept. Ill keep everyone updated once i find out whats next though.

[its a ivtec]

[siexyy55]

lol jk

Well its not faster so no.....

but when i was still rocking the a3 yes, i was a tad bit jealous.



nice as always!

thanks bro!:mbiggrin: i try.... haha ;)

[civictype_r04]

Nice man you race your mom?:mbiggrin:

[socmex7]

Nice man you race your mom?:mbiggrin:

that's always sick, when parents race. my ex's dad use to shoot the canyons with us on his ninja. he'd go slow for us cars though :mredface:

[Hondatuner87]

Nice man you race your mom?:mbiggrin:

Haha recently...no i haven't. But she made me look stupid when i had the a3 still in the car. I remember my brother was visiting from out of state and he was in my car and my little brother was in my moms car. We were driving home from dinner and we both hit a stop light. My brother starts laughing and makes a comment "you know moms ganna take off on you right, your about to get whacked" ....

so my mom starts reving up the engine and im like wtf hahha you can't be serious. So im like fuck it im ganna launch it when the light turns green and see what happens. Since my mom can't really drive that great i got her off the line for about .2 seconds then she just put a couple car lengths on me.

haven't raced her with the new setup but i know id easily take her. i told her how i beat my friends modded srt a couple days ago and she goes

"ohhh you only beat him because he can't drive his car, you should let me drive his car.."

mann....gotta love my mom:mbiggrin:

Very clean SSM EP.
Your old pics of the EP look like my EP as of now with a drop and 99-00 Si wheels!

Yah i miss those wheels so god damn much man. with a drop, those wheels flowed SO good with the ep body style. Hell i think they even look better on the ep rather then the 99-00 si. Id still be rocking those wheels but i couldn't hook up for shit with the new setup and such a small tire size :(

[SiiK20]

yeah they fit the EP perfectly IMO. But i do agree with you in regards to size and all
