Shafzzz Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 Ep looks awesome some good sound too.Thanks man I appreciate it! I have a few minor aesthetic plans but my main goal at the moment is performance, once I get the parts I need for my ~260bhp build, I'll make it look mental! The backbox is getting changed at the end of this month for a custom one but I want it to keep the same tone so hopefully it still sounds good! Facelift front end will totally transform the car man! Good luck! I'd suggest crystal taillights but I can never find them online. I saw them on an EP3 at Japfest2.I agree about the crystal taillights, they're awesome but I've only ever seen them on American EP3 Si or that one at Japfest2! I may just do all red overlays on them, not sure at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shafzzz Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Not too much to update as of late due to saving up for the dreaded insurance renewal in Nov! Being 21 in London with a type-R is pretty darn expensive! Recent updates: Removed the i-VTEC DOHC cover from the engine bay giving it a more purposeful look, then decided to convert my mates gangster as feck E39 BMW to the darkside Painted the brake calipers red, really don't understand why only 30th anniversary preface EP3s had this from the factory, it suits the black on red so well, excuse the crap pic, car's dirty due to builders down the road! Also front brake dust why? BECAUSE MINTEX! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shafzzz Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Haha he wasn't home when I did that either, he was out doing an airport run and me and his cousin were doing the calipers on both cars so we decided to have some fun with the BMW, decided to pull a prank on him which I can't post here due to legality reasons LOL. Also I may do the wheels in Anthracite till I can afford the set I want (ideally I can't get another set as I just bought two new front tyres that won't fit anything but 17x7 alloys and the ones I want are 17x8). Should I do the alloys anthracite with new red H's or black with red Hs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I like that colour with red H's, think it just breaks it up a bit! They do look nice that colour for an OEM wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roj Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 That E39. Also I think you've had 9001 votes in favour of anthracite now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shafzzz Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 So I've decided to paint the wheels black due to a majorit.... LOL jk Anthracite, just gotta find the right weather for it. Haha he wasn't pleased when he saw we'd done that, but I'm slowly converting him to the VTEC side.. though I feel he wants VVTL-i more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shafzzz Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 Well well well what do we have here? A JDM EP3 RARB with Hardrace droplinks! I've been planning to do this mod a long time as it's 3mm thicker (19mm vs 22mm), so should allow the rear to have a bit more rotation under hard cornering, which should be fun as the EP3 is pretty steerable using the back end as is! I should be fitting this at work next week hopefully after maybe giving it a coat of black hammerite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Nice! Will you be changing the front one as well at any point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
