Same with Sydney in general when I got mine a few years ago there weren't any around, a mugen full kitted ep3 is even more rare.

the moment i saw the fully kitted one i got it straight away but i never knew the full kit was rare so very very lucky its sad there aren't many cosmetic options with the EP3R you really have to think outside the box

a few questions guys

1. your thoughts on redline tranny fluid i have a mate who has a "cocktail" mix alot of the evo guys run it and was told it would be good for me also?

2. im getting alot of scrubbing atm wheel specs are 17x7.5 +30 on 235/45/17 Federal 595 RSR's. would it be worth it to invest in coilovers and camber arms and further rolling out my guards or should i settle with a smaller tire profile say 225/45/17?

might try rolling the guards and use 225.

235/45 isn't ideal on a 7.5'' wheel on our cars anyway. I reckon just go 225/45 and then get coilovers and camber arms for the rear.

If it's still got tread on it, I'd just run as it is for now instead of wasting money on new tires all over again. Run them until they're bold and then go to 225/45. If you're really keen to run a 235 width, you probably should be running with a 40 sidewall height otherwise your rolling diameter deviates too much from stock and the speedo goes out of whack.

Do you find the 235/45 balloons on the 7.5" wheel?

Welcome! Nice car and assortment of mods

Hope to see you out on the track next year sometime

Yeah I guess I should would be a waste considering I bought them brand new only a few months ago, yeah they do balloon on 7.5 wide wheels

Hey Guys im looking into getting coils relatively soon, will need to get rid of my Mugen Showa Suspension so if anyone is keen please feel free to shoot me a PM

[TonyxTony]

Amazing.... love the wheels!

[RPH]

Minor touch ups restoring the red stitching on the momo wheel, with a red pen works like a charm brings it back to life!

[Shakeel]
