Well, ive been doing this for far too long 7 years ago I had a black Ek hatch on spray probably one of the funnest cars ive ever owned and My prelude wasn't going to cut it for a 120 km round trip everyday (12-1 compression, pro 2 cams etc etc) so i parted out the car and bought an Ep3 I figured I wouldn't mod it too much Not like my rx7's of the past, then I started to find some deals... anyways bought her about 6 months ago for $3200 bones it needed some work But it was a straight no accident car and it was black like my old Ek.
Planning on doing as much autocross and open lapping as I can get out of this motor, im going to wring every little bit of life out of it lol, I have decided on a K24 or a k20, K24 will be a much more fun street car and a K20 *should last longer due to its better rod/stroke ratio on the track,
anyways the mods so far are
Act Extreme pressure plate/street Strip Organic disc *New
Act Prolite flywheel *New
NEW OEM updated Clutch master cylinder
02-04 Type S Brake Conversion including master cylinder and booster
Energy suspension LCA Bushings *New
Progress rear 22mm Sway bar+brace *new
Koni yellows front and rear RSX 55mm + rsx tie rod ends
EP3 Specific Ground control sleeve/spring kit
JDM K20 valve cover
Rsx type S intake manifold cover
16x7 DC2 Type R wheels
16mm sparco wheel spacers
Arp extended studs
225/50R16 Continental Extreme contact Dw
Honda optional Fog lights
8th gen Civic Si short shifter modded to work with my Ep3 shifter
Ingalls front camber kit
Future plans
Brembo/s2000 front brake setup (yes the ITR wheels do Clear the brembos)
Mugen front strut bar (more for bling bling lol)
Buddy club Extended ball joints
04-05 Ep3 front struts to Build an inverted tie rod setup with rsx tie rod ends
