    Yeah, I run HP+ pads in the front and regular street pads in the back. I'm thinking about trying out some EBC Yellowtuff pads next time I do a track day.

    Nice hatch, very clean! How was the fitment of the RSX midpipe and ITR header? I baught a 02 with HKS Hi Power and really dont like it and like your setup. It looks like the RSX midpipe is cheaper then the EP3s. Where did you fine the ITR header?

    I got the ITR header off of someone on clubrsx and needed to put some work into it. All of the gaskets are p/n's available in the US. The header and midpipe fit perfect, well because they are actually made for this platform. ;). I got the rsx-s mid pipe for 25 bucks on craigslist.

    Two of the studs on the header were stripped, so i had to take them out (easier said than done) and re-tapped the threads that the studs came out of. I bought a couple of bolts, cut them to size and touched up the threads where i cut it. Then used those instead of studs.

    Thanks for the love, and no prob. Ask away. It passed emissions with flying colors in california. I'm using an RSX-S primary O2 sensor and the ep3 secondary with an o2 extension. I was using the ep3 primary with an extension, but mine went bad. The RSX-S sensor doesn't need an extention, its the right length.
