Looks great !

Still working on the CF airbox ? It will compliment that engine bay so well.

Also is your battery tray stainless or aluminum ?

Yeah still in progress, I havent worked on it since I last posted about it in here. Been too busy with other stuff. Now that the car is back on the road and I get the rear shocks worked out Ill probably start working on it again

Tray is 14g aluminum

To touch on this note again, I dont know about EG's, but the 96-00 use the same box as the CRV. I ordered the filter and filter frame from Honda for the CRV and it goes right in

And the car is looking great man. I am also not a big fan of the EP but it just looks great. Keep it up

Thanks guys! Well I made it to the meet without a glitch! Car ran great and sounded amazing, just bouncy as f*ck cause of those stock rear shocks haha.

Heres a pic thanks to Phil@ allthingsproper.com

Do you drive in the rain? How do you keep the undercarriage so clean!

Yeah man daily driver! Last winter was the first winter it hasnt seen since Ive owned it. I plan to keep it off the road for winters from now on but Ill daily it till the first snowfall every year

The undercarriage just kinda stays clean. I havent really done anything to clean it other than those rear trailing arms and stuff.

I just did the fenders for some extra clearance. It was rubbing a bit at the last track day, then I added the 4mm spacers for the brakes so I needed some extra room. Now I can crank it lock to lock under g load and no rubs

It wont be at IA, I cant take that kind of time off work for a car meet, Id rather save it for vacation

I'm guessing just a quick wash of the wheelwells/floorpan after it rains so it doesn't build up?

Sup ngga babies! Another update for you guys...

Mike, Clauds (HBKFanatic), and myself had a late night at the shop installing the new SoHonda Garage windshield banners. After a failed attempt at a printed version, and another failed attempt at a 2 layer vinyl we finally have what we were looking for thanks to Precision Graphics in Bellingham MA.

We call the color Suzuka Green and it will be our trademark color. Were also working on stickers that will be available to anyone who wants one for a small fee

Anyway, weve got a graphic overlay but after mocking up the size we had cut it just looks too small, so hopefully tomorrow we can have some larger graphics cut for a quick afternoon install. The flourescent lights throw off the color a bit so Ill grab some daylight photos of the finished product asap







.

.

And a couple random pictures I took at the BBQ on sunday... You can see the flared fenders as well as some dirty *** wheels from bedding the brakes on the way to NY

I washed the fender wells once last summer, and then again when the car was off the road this past winter/spring. Ive never washed the floor pan though, it just stays clean somehow :shrugs:

Banners look so good! That color is pretty hard to capture on camera but it looks sick in person. Keep doing it big!

I have to subscribe to this. This is probably the cleanest EP3 ever. Thanks for sharing with us and hope to see this progress. What's coming in the near future? and can you PM me when you put the small stickers on sale?

Thanks man! Well first thing I need to do is install my rear shocks once the new spring perches get here, then corner weigh and and re-align the car. After that, not sure! I wanna slow down on spending money on the car for the summer but Ive got some DIY projects stewing

Ill let you know when we get the stickers put together
