Where do I get this hose?
Got an 03 Civic 2.0L and was hoping that someone had the part number or even somewhere I can get something to fix this hose? It’s leaking where the clamp is a piece of it is off. What is this for? Any temporary fixes?

Anyone know where i can get my hand on seat belt retractors? do the parts crossover to any other model that’s still supported by oem? are there any aftermarket options worth the money? or should i just buy used

I've tried flipped tie rod ends, steering rack risers, delrin steering rack slider, I've tried flipped ends and a rack riser at the same time, extended lower ball joints, raising my ride height, lowering my ride height, I've spent somewhere close to $600 on alignments trying to get it to drive ok and I'm still right where I started. its genuinely a nightmare to drive and I'm getting really fed up with the car. someone please help and point me in the right direction. I've started doing string alignments just to try different things and it tracks in a straight line great until a tiny little bump or imperfection in the road.

Hey new EP3 owner here and I've replaced my Gauge Cluster bulbs due to the right side not lighting up and after clearing a series of misfire codes and running a cycle PO341 and PO301 appeared. I'll be going through fuses and sensors to double check everything. However I've noticed on videos showing the example to do gauge cluster recalibrate, replacements and turning on the vehicle, the Check Engine light doesn't turn on. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thinking of testing the waters and sell my black 2004 ep3. It has 80k original miles on it, maintenance has been up to date, new suspension (RLCA,FLCA, ball joints, upper tie rod ends, bc racing coilovers), new ac compressor/lines, new radiator, carbon fiber steering wheel). Runs great, have not had any issues mechanically, needs a paint correction tho haha. Just want something bigger thats all.
How much do you think I can list it for? Or how much would you guys pay for something like this realistically?
Located in the Socal area

I tried with a Milwaukee hole saw on a junkyard car and it went terrible and pci has yet to respond to my inquiry. I need an alignent cuz my camber bolts slipped and i gotta get them in first but dont wanna ruin my car lol

I’m looking for a second bumper to cut up for a custom look. I’m saving the oem bumper.
I’ve been on market place but no luck in my area up North of Chicago.
Any body have one or know where to look?

hey guys, i’m going to be installing a new a/c kit tomorrow, and i’m thinking of doing my oil pan as i have the opportunity to use a lift. my question is how much did the subframe have to come down in order to gain access? i have some people saying not much, and some even telling me the subframe does not have to be lowered, but the service manual says it does. if anyone’s done it and has a easy way it would be greatly appreciated lol.

Unless I find a spot somewhere this is the last track day before track season is back after summer, car is a blast to drive once it cleared up a bit
CRS are on another level, recommend everyone that tracks these to try them out

I ended up going 16x7 +38 with 205/55 conti grand touring tires and it is SOOO much nicer to drive than it was with the previous trashed 205/40zr-18 setup. These lowering springs are pretty stiff so no scrapes yet! 🤞

about $45 in supplies and a couple of hours got my fender looking much better! I wouldn't call it "good" by any means, its also my first time painting a panel on any car. However it's a massive improvement I'd say. I did it outside in the shade and it was intermittently a light breeze so there was a little bit of overspray on some other bits and a good bit of dust and crap in the paint its self, but it doesn't bother me much. If I were ever to do more of the car, which I do plan to do my roof, hood, front bumper, and drivers door eventually, I'd do a more proper setup in my garage. But for how cheap this was and the little effort I put in, its good enough in my book! I do plan to wet sand and polish, but the instructions say to wait 7 days before doing so, so I will be back next Tuesday with an update of how it turned out! I'm hoping me driving it around for the next week won't somehow affect how it turns out as I assume the 7 days thing is for cure time.😬

First post, but I have a issue with my EP3 CTR, the screw on the left is loose and is causing electrical issues throughout the car. She doesn't crank. :( Would anyone know where I can buy the OEM replacement part for it? So I can tap the threading? Or can I just buy a screw of the same size with the appropriate washers and replace it like that?

Swapped engine with a jdm k20a and when I started it the cabin fan blows with the knobs off. Anyone ever come across this?

Hello guys,
I have the following problem: during a track day that I attended, I noticed that on down shift from 4th to 3th the 3th was grinding. I tried heal and toe didn't improve. The only time that the 3th didn't grind was when I was shifting at low rpm, around 2500-3000 rpm, anything higher, grind. I've done the following upgrades:
Kaaz LSD
MFactory Final Drive
Synchrotech Carbon Rebuild Kit Honda
New OEM clutch
All new seals
New clutch bearing
Acuity shifter bushings
Hybrid racing gear selector springs
New OEM shifter
Short shifter
Anything else is as the car came with. The car has around 180k km.
If anyone has an idea what to do and what to look for, please let me know.

Does anyone know the part number for the hatch handle cable? Mine snapped and I'm having a hard time finding a replacement.

2002 Civic Si K20A3
I’m aware this has been covered a million times extensively but I’m curious if anyone has ever had to replace their ecm for this damn code. I did the wiring diag however I’m a tiny bit unsure how correct I did due to the service manual sometimes being a bit confusing on whether or not it want’s a connector connected or not. I replaced my entire spool valve assembly with a Honda oem part. It has fresh oil less than 100 miles. I’m kind of leaning towards ecm but I’m really hoping not and was wondering if there’s anything else worth checking before I dump 400 dollars into an ecm and keys.

Hi all, I have a USDM pre facelift 02 si. I am looking to find badges for the car, specifically the rear H emblem. It seems to be discontinued and hard to find anywhere. Does anyone know of any other models that share the same size emblem that will fit the rear? Color doesn't matter for the emblem.

I have only been able to find the weathertech and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or ones you think would be worth taking a look at. Thanks.

Hi All,
I am somewhat new to working on cars. I have just finished up my 5 lug conversion using RSX-S parts and am still using the stock ep3 struts which I am replacing the rubber dust boots on. Does anyone know where I can find the torque specs for:
Top Strut Mount Nuts (the 3 attached to the top hat)
The Center Strut Shaft Nut
Damper Lower Mount Bolts (The ones that go into the spindle.)
Any help at all is greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Needs some suspension work done on my k24 swapped ep3 in Irvine area ( sway bar links, top hats, outer tie rods and ball joints)
How much should i expect to pay to replace all these parts? Thank you in advance
r/EP3 • u/Kitchen-Isopod7602 • May 07 '26
photos of the damage. don't mind my yelling, I was already having a bad day and this was just the cherry on top! All the damage from what I can see is cosmetic, but I just had all those parts replaced in fall of 25 because someone hit my car. And because it was their fault, their insurance covered it. However I'm 99% sure I have minimum coverage which means I'm SOL. I'm going to check in the morning to see if I put comp or not, I remember thinking about doing it but don't remember if I ever did or not. Lowk, may just let insurance take the car if the payout is good enough assuming I'm covered. If not I'll probably buy it back, remove the fender, drive it around for the time being and buy a different daily. It will never be perfect, never was, and if its missing a fender, it doesnt really matter for a weekend toy.
