Stubby - Crawfordsville, IN

[Stubby]

Been a Long Long Rode, but the car is finally coming around. Bought the car in I believe 2004 and became a member of ephatch. Since then the learning has began and has been growing ever since. I can't thank the members and Joe enough for keeping this forum alive. Definately a huge part in my cars journey.

Here is the new update of Charlie.

Wheels

CCW Classic's
Front 17x9 +22 -4* camber
Rear 17x9.5 +16 -8* camber

Tires are Falken 452 215/40/17

Car made 441whp and 283 torque at 11psi

[Schizophonic]

hot.

[lostep3]

:meek::mtongue::meek: Nice car, how does that race kit feel.

[jeenyusss]

:scared: very nice stubbs! how does she pull?

[Stubby]

She pulls pretty hard if you know what i am saying. But with the full race kits there is a lot of boost creep, so i am getting quite a bit of creep. I have a 3psi spring in the wastegate to help to keep the boost levels down up top, but it creeps from 6psi to 11 psi @ 8200rpms. Which I will hardly ever take it that high. So it kinda acts like a boost by rpm. But it is definately a roll on car. 1st and 2nd are almost worthless without pedaling it.

[mario543k20]

congrats congrats!! will you be at the md bbq this year?? hope to see this car in person again!! All show and Go!! pretty hard to do both, but you managed to do it to the T.

Milano Red is my favorite Honda color:clap2: Except when it fades and turns into Milano Pink like my GSR :eek:

[SiR Phil]

Four hundred plus ponies on a stock A2 block?! Dude... you worried at all about that thing holding up?

damn stubs! absolutely loving the new wheels!!!

[02TWSI]

Your mod list doesn't say, is that a replica or real front lip

[Stubby]

Your mod list doesn't say, is that a replica or real front lip
Yeah I have tofinish the update on my mod list, it's the real deal. I also bought a mugen fg360 steering wheel, gas cap cover, and socks (mugen).

[heyvortek]

damnnnnn...i guess ill be the 4th ep3 to have ccw. looking nice man

[chrispychicken]

OMG! Damn! Loving the CCW's and the Mugen Front Lip!

[Yo_KyleEP3]

LOVEEE ITTT!!! Ever think of painting the wing?

[k20hatch]

wow man that ep looks GREAT! good work! an im not even fond of red but WOW!

[Stubby]

Thanks y'all. I have thought about painting the whole car even the carbon. The carbon is well over 5 years old and is starting to show signs of wear, but as of right now it is google to stay the way it is. I have me a little one on the way and need to change my focus the the kid and if money presents itself to respray, I will probably do that. The only thing I don't like about this setup is that it handles like poopy now. I guess it is just going to be a hard parker with a lot of horses. Thanks again for all te comments. Makes me feel good when someone recognizes all the money and hard work that goes into a solid build.

[shadowmd]

lookin good man. i saw those wheels down OC this past september on pats car. always been a fan of your car. glad to see you still have it.

[CastorTroy2]

glad you got everything on! Looks greattt!! I miss them :( hahaha. Glad they went to a good home

[Stubby]

glad you got everything on! Looks greattt!! I miss them :( hahaha. Glad they went to a good home

Yeah they are on. It was a pain in the butt getting everything broken free. I hadn't changed the height of the car since I bought the coilovers. And the camber arms were rusted bad enough I had to take them off the car to move them. I wish I would have lowered the front a hair more, but I am overall happy with the way it turned out. It rides like crap now, but that is expected I guess.

[03K20A3Si]

Looking good man!

I love everything about it except for the wheels/fitment. It seems like you loved driving it until you put those wheels on. Wouldn't you enjoy it more if it were more driveable?

[POOPTOOTH]

He's got something different on there now and it looks killer! I'll let him post pics first.

How's it going daddy-o, the boy looks like he's gettin big!

The boy is getting big. I love him to death. Father hood is great.

I did get some new shoes for the hatch. RPF1's. I like them, but they are definately not my favorite. I miss the crap outta my RGII's. I will post some pics of the new wheels soon. Hard to find time to do anything if you know what I mean. Seems like the older I get the less time I have.

[flyingsihigh]

wow...ur car has definitely come a long way...looks good...thats exactly how i would've done it..wheels n all..except white paint...but overall, it would've been the same...talkabout aggressive stance on an EP too...having stance has come a long way too..i know, i've gone thru 12 sets of rims on my G35 already...u shud post up a few vids too..i'm sure sumone has already asked but just wanted to mention it..keep up the good work bro

[Stubby]

Ill try and get some video's post next warm season. The car doesn't come out unless it 50-60 degrees outside.

[lemonhead228]

DAMN. Those ccw looked sick on your ride. Those are my favorite wheels of them all! You should out thst sexy thing in a photo shoot. Clean ass mofo ride! Mad props man and I really like the red. It's rarely any of them

[303EP]
