My pals JDM EP3

Just like me he's going German. Stunning car, the JDM is what the UK should have been, very eager engine and LSD transforms the car

Are the alloys really lighter then uk OEM wheels? They just look the same but only colour difference (white).

I want some Red Recaros with a red carpet so bad. :twisted:

So just to clarify the OEM wheels on UKDM CTRs are heavier then the white JDM ones? :?


That's not true. They are just sprayed white. :ugeek:

The 2001-2003 cars had alloys made my Enkei, slightly lighter and were a different shade of silver to the 03-05 ones.

The JDM ones are exactly the same but sprayed in white. This car is the preface model with the Enkei alloys.

I've owned 2 EP3s and spunked about £7k in mods on them, I know my shizzle 8-)

Indeed, but as its a preface JDM it has the lighter rims, which is why he states so in the ad. If he has said because its JDM he's getting a wee slap lol

It was an option in Japan, even though the cars were all built here
