Nothing really special to see here, just my 2002 Milano Red SiR (well unless you look at the fact that Milano Red was only available in Canada (on the Si/SiR) and only for 2002. Sadly, I hate red cars but because it is that exclusive and I got a good deal on it, I don't complain lol). It is mostly stock except for a Pioneer Head Unit, an A'pexi World Sport 2 exhaust and the AEM V2 Intake (I bought it like that). It had just about 97500km (61000 miles) on it when I bought it. After driving it for about 5 months, including a roadtrip to Québec City, it is now at about 104500km (65300 miles).

Some of the pics have been taken with my iPhone 4 so don't mind the crappy quality.

When I first got it, February 28th 2011

Excited for the Dash-Mounted shifter (I had a custom extension in my old 1988 Hatchback too)

OMG, ANT ATTACK AT 0:22!

:mcool:

Love your stock EP. It's hard not to mod them, I know I can't help it. But I do appreciate staring at stock EP's for some reason.

Yeah I kinda stole my sister's DSLR lol, a monkey could take awesome pictures with those things.

And as far as the drop goes, I'm debating on buying springs (I don't really want to spend 1500$ for coilovers) with new wheels (17" Enkei RPF1, preferably in Gold or black) and Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec rubber OR just sell the thing and get something else (better). Thing is, it's pretty much the best you can get for 7.5-8k (canada sucks ok lol).

Dude once you mod the ep you'll fall in love with it all over again(maybe for the first time in your case?)


If I modified my ep3, in more of a performance aspect, I wouldn't trade it for just about any car in equal price range. Its such a great car

I have been thinking about the Hondata Flashpro too. Most of the reviews I've seen are positive and people even say it completely changed the car. That could help, along with the drop, wheels, tires and probably a bit of chassis stiffening, it could make an interesting car for me to drive for the next few years while I'm going to college.
