I came from a 2005 EP3 to a 2010 Mk2 LCR. They only thing i miss on the civic is the very good gearbox feel selecting gears and where the gearstick was sitting on the dash.

Yes the EP3 facelift is a really good car but i have no regrets at all going from it to the LCR. Remapping to APR stage 1 this week so that should make it even better.

Well I have to admit I'm shite at anything technical :) But thanks to peeps on here and getting a few little extras like the Revo intake and the Milltek exhaust ..and then onto the APR Stg1 it has made so much difference . So if you have these bits already the car will be totally changed ...:D :D

Only have a VWR panel filter at the moment and some BKR7EIX plugs to go in at the same time as the APR mapping. Should still give a decent gain. I do want to change to a proper intake and have a Milltek exhaust or BCS I don't mind lol.

I do miss the EP3 at time on how you could throw the thing into the corner and it just went round. If they could get the sharpness of the gearbox from my old EP3 CTR and mount the gear stick on the dash I would say job done :)

As said I'm no expert ;) Others are on here and that's whats good about this site and forum .

Personally ,I'd get Intake (revo ,apr, evroms etc ) and then exhaust BCS.,MILLTEK, and then get re-map , APR ,Revo,R-tech etc ...you choose ;)
