I don't think your signature's big enough.

Maybe you can find space to cram a little more in there.

What makes your EP so special is how clean and simple it is.

Another thing that makes it look even better is in the first pic you posted ^ the car looks more like a dark, charcoal gray. I would def. go charcoal gray if I needed a new paint job

Yeah I photoshopped the pic cuz I downloaded a trial of cs4 and I was messin with it, and yes dark/charcoal grey looks good on ep3s, would b my first choice if I ever give it a new paint job.

Hello from Stockholm, Sweden!

This is our -02 Type R which is used both as a daily runner and occasionally on track. Lowered on Tein S-tech springs with stock dampers. JDM rear sway bar, Ingalls camber bolts up front and D2 camber adjusters rear (not in the pics). Engine is stock apart from a K&N filter and a Supersprint exhaust.




Unfortunately I warped one of the front rims last week when i hit something doing about 50 mph... Considering a set of bronze 16" Rota for next season.



These are the 15" rims with Toyo R888 Iīve been using for trackdays.


// Andreas

Iīm happy with them.

I donīt want coilovers since the ride is usually to harsh for our roads, so this is a good compromize. I canīt compare with stock springs because the car was on H&R springs when we bought it, but it was way too low for the speedbumps on our street so I got the S-techs instead.

It might feel a bit soft on track when I have the R888s on, but thats only a few times a year anyway.
