Cheers Phil!
Fair enough! Can't see me messing with the suspension for a while. It's rough, but I was expecting that
must say, i do prefer the mugen rear end on the FN2. it looks much better than stock.
tempted by a mugen wing for my ep3 in honesty.
Do you have the fast road setup on your FN2 Noxia?
do it Taken. its cheaper to get it done for an FN2 at ABP than it is for an EP3
indeed. I poo pooed it when MilanoChris suggested it in this thread but after getting the FRSU and my JDM bar, the difference is night and day. car is more planted at higher speeds, cornering feels precise and manageable, most of all the car feels a lot more predicable with its movement. and the feedback through the steering wheel is brilliant.
get a FRSU sorted as soon as you can. it is worth every penny.
put it this way, a few weeks ago i drove my dads boxter s, got in my civic the same day and the steering feedback was better. the porsche felt muted in comparison
There are a lot of good quality replicas about for EP3 if you're going down that route. I don't think the Mugen stuff is as expensive for EP3 (I presume due to the size) but it's still not a small purchase by most peoples standards!
Box was rather large, just managed to fit it in with the passenger seat pushed forward.
I think I will go replica. seen one for £200 all in with painting so it may be on the agenda once the clutch is fitted
I don't see the point in getting a real one as resale would be awful and I only really want one to test out and see if I like it on the car if that makes sense.

I hear you. What I would say though is the Mugen stuff holds a high value at least with the 8th Gen anyway. Not seen a second hand wing go for less than £900, and airbox £700.
That said, there are not many if any good replicas for the bodyparts.
got one already bledd.
£135 from honda.
the EP3 and FN2 clutch kit is the same part.
holdcroft are my local main dealer, so I called them, asked if i could have it at the ebay price. they agreed and sold me two bottles of MTF3 for £11 each also.
went and picked it up the other day.
a guy on CTRO says they ship via UPS next day too for free. not bad imho

Just fitted a low level boot spoiler, eBay job came painted for £60 delivered. Nothing but good reports on the s2ki. Quality and fit seems spot on. Now on the hunt for an AP2 OEM front lip.

Took a few photos the other day when the weather was good.
