2002 Honda Civic Type R

[Tomm1992]

I've owned this car for the past 4 months. I absolutely love it, the way it handles the power and the look of it.
I got a really good good deal with it, 2002 02 plate in red with 90k fsh with 12 months mot for £2100, it only required tax and two rear tyres so it stands me at £2400.
ive got a few plans for it, first i changed the centre section on the exhaust for a straight through sportex pipe. Its quite a decent sound but i want more noise so ill soon be getting a 4 inch scorpion cat back system. I'm going to lower it in the future but im not sure what to go for, either eibach sport lowering springs or just go all out and get some decent coilovers.
I'm also planning on either an alloy refurb or some team dynamics pro race 1.2's.

Yesterday after a full detail.

Wow great price, few months ago I got a 2001 in NHB for £2500 and I thought I got a cracking deal!

Great buy; would love to try an EP3 at some point. Still look great today

It was a complete pain in the ass!

It sounds awesome though, I'll take it off when the weather turns bad too!

I'm considering doing my wheels white too!

What a bargain! Enjoy

The red looks really good still as well, not faded at all. Whenever I see an ep3 on the road, it's never a red one. Always black or silver. They seem to be rarer these days.

thinking of getting one or a tegiwa induction kit. I'm not a massive fan of white wheels on red. matt black would be a massive win

it's been well looked after i think. i clean it as often as i can! very happy with the condition of the paint

I wouldn't put anything Tegiwa on my car if there wasn't another induction kit on earth

I don't like black wheels, white just does it for me!

[Tomm1992]

Are they bad then? i don't think ive read a bad review tbh

[DanielJames]

Nothing wrong with Tegiwa. Car looks nice.

I thought that, I've never heard a bad thing about them

I had a teg on mine, they sound awesome on full chat, but the scuttle scoop was a bit too Barry for me, and it was during winter, snow and rain made me nervous...

Tegiwa is the one to go for mate. For the price it's the best of the closed kits.

[Tomm1992]

read that many times about tegiwa, should be getting a 4 inch scorpion cat back tommorow
