and for all the people that think the ep3 motor sucks (k20a3) doesnt compare to the type-s (k20a2) but when turbo'd it still has potential. plus its a 5-speed, which is better for turbo. and idk about you guys but...

turbo'd a3 > n/a a2 since he is getting the a3 for dirt cheap.. just saying

My friend has an Ep3 that I'm going to drive, so I'll know first hand, lol. I wasn't excited about the feel of the Rsx-S; seemed restrained and too comfy, like it didn't want to break a nail

i felt the same way when I drove an RSX. I guess newer cars doesn't feel as raw as older gens

If the sale doesn't go thru on the seats should I
A) make custom brackets for the seats and bolt them on the stocks holes
Or
B) weld them straight to my car. Btw theft proof!

I'd cut off the mounting tabs from the bottom of your stock seats and weld them onto the ep3 seats and then bolt to the stock holes that that you can take em out if you ever get tired of them

Idk if 5'9 is short but I used my stock pans and rails but I think it's the same. Seats feels amazing

I used my old skeleton from my old leather seats I had bc I didnt want to mess up my clothes.

Then took the body of the ep3 seats and fit into the old skeleton. Took zip ties and zip tied it into the skeleton so itll be secure and used old metal rings and clamped them on so everything would tight used dc pan and rails and secured it into the stock holes.

Took me 2.5-3 hours to disassemble both seats and mix Matched them up.
