New JAP Bus

mr bognor · Oct 30, 2011

Well after thinking about a Clio 182 and a EP3 CTR to replace the 306 HDI i got a civic type R on Saturday .

Sone cr*p pic today and first thing will be a Groupe M to replace the most dirty air filter i have seen LOL

Nick172Cup · Oct 30, 2011

That thing must have been f'ing cheap for you to buy that, looks a complete shed! That filter is discusting, probably sucked in shed loads of crap/rust by the looks of the filter.

SuperJ · Oct 30, 2011

Looks in a hell of state.

Fletcher · Oct 30, 2011

Like Nick said. I hope that was cheap, the engine bay/filter is a right mess.

Munson · Oct 30, 2011

Still like the EP3s. Epic gear change.

LOL at it being a shed. Not everyone spends each weekend polishing their engine with cotton buds. Although TBF that filter looks hyper-pauper

Nick172Cup · Oct 30, 2011

My reasoning for it being a shed is if the owner runs a filter like that, I hate to think what else has been bodged/hasn't even been done at all to it. It hardly looks a mint example also, hence a it looking a shed...

Neither do I, but a filter that dirty isn't exactly a good sign is it?

Vtec yo

Mega strong engines...... If looked after :dapprove:

alex-avfc · Oct 30, 2011

How is it a shed? It's got a dirty air filter and a grubby bay, thats it? Rest of the car looks enough to me considering he's just got it.

mr bognor · Oct 30, 2011

This

Full Honda Service history with all stamps in the book only two owners from new . Filter is a mess and engine needs a clean but drives spot on and not a shed .

Some people don't wash engine bays.

Better for it IMO.

Should have got a ATR though Bognor

ant_r27 · Oct 30, 2011

Looks fine to me aside from the dodgy filter. Interior looks reasonably well-looked after too from the pic.

Also, good call on the GruppeM. I've got one on my FD2 and they sound fapping brilliant!!

mr bognor · Oct 30, 2011

Filter head is now off and changed for AEM off my old Civic VTI . Engine bay will be cleaned at week end .

mr bognor · Oct 30, 2011

Did go and look at one but went for the EP3 . 2.2 H22 would have been nice

Great cars.

I don't personally think they should be compared to Clio Sports, they're way too different.

Wouldn't mind one of these at some point. Any plans for it?

Gaz. · Oct 30, 2011

BREAD VAN!

Didn't like the one I drove, wasn't all that impressed.

Bjorn · Oct 30, 2011

Apart from a grubby bay that looks really nice, shed my arse! One of the best colours and a good base to start from.

GruppeM, RBC, decent exhaust and a Kpro/K100 internally and slight drop and your laughing.

mr bognor · Oct 31, 2011

Tidy up a little ( engine bay LOL) New rear type R badge , New battery , new front tyres , Gruppe M , Job done .

Just had new discs and pads all round and new front calipers .

Welcome to the club

Munson · Oct 31, 2011

I think you need to crop your avatar now

Sir_Dave · Oct 31, 2011

Did you find it at the bottom of a river lol?!

If it had full history, why didnt they clean the air filter? Unless they did it with mud/rust of course ...

Great gearchange on these.

mr bognor · Oct 31, 2011

No more 5 cylinder magic anymore

You could say that with any car though, they're all fairly different but in the case of Ep3 vs RS Clio there are a lot of similarities.

Just checked the price on a gruppe M :|

Gally · Oct 31, 2011

Can't believe they matched that gearbox with that steering.

Epic gearbox, one of my faves tbh.

mr bognor · Oct 31, 2011

Gear box is the best part of the car so far . Short shift and an amazing feel .

Steering is on the light side but not as bad as i thought it would be .

Ride is not as harsh as i thought it would be also.

Good mate. Decent price? Pm if you want mate.

Munson · Oct 31, 2011

What would win in a race between the EP3 and cliosport?

mr bognor · Oct 31, 2011

lol

Doesn't look that bad externally but as said that filter looks rather hanging lol. They are bullet proof though so even with an unserviced one if you're willing to spend a penny on it you can't go wrong...

Please tell me there was s**t on your lens, and that isn't spunk all over your interior?

Gally · Nov 5, 2011
