I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

.colin's 2004 EP3 - Pittsburgh PA

Post by Colin » November 15, 2012

Haven't been on the board in a while, a long while - but I thought I'd share the build on my 2004 ep3. She's come a lot further than when I had her posted on here back in 2007/2008. I'll do my best to keep this thread up to date :thumbup:

2004 Taffeta White Civic Si. Daily year round driven since 2005, got the car with 25k miles, now up to 111k. Car has been hit twice, flooded, and driven into by a snow plow - but she is still going strong!

Picked this up cheap off ebay - Neuspeed front X-brace! It's in pretty rough shape, especially around the gussets in the center - but the price was right. I'm going to clean it up and coat it in POR 15 or some epoxy spray paint. I was debating the Carbing front brace, but the Neuspeed one looked much stronger as its a triangulated frame , not a square frame like the Carbing.
