What way did the tyres hold up in the wet?
@@ExoModdingCrew how does it compare to the mk6 gti?
Why is it that 1.6 litre engines are harder to find than 2 litre engines?
Happy New Year everyone! Thanks for all the support till date, got some interesting ideas lined up for 2019 to switch the content up a bit 👌🏼
TR Hamza shes smokey lol is it burning oil badly i know you had what 160k
Where’s the mod list ???
Underrated car. Sure it may not look like the coolest car but it's definitely a driver's car!
I love the looks on a ep3
fucking hell you again your a BEG
get a life
@Coner Anthony 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Its a proper hot hatch the EP3.
I have ep3 and ep4 as well, I love the way they look, especialy my red dragon ep3 on evo wheels.. fire 🔥🔥
My first “high powered” car was an ep3 type r 54reg. I miss it to this day! Did a check on it a few months back and it’s still on the road 190k miles on it on its last MOT. Passed every time with only a few minors throughout the years, glad it’s still going strong and being looked after. Sold it at 41k wish I kept it even though I’ve had a lot more powerful cars since then but the memories made when having that car tops it all
Owners of one of these are proud owners if I could afford to insure one I’d have one
More JDM & VTEC content please
JDM_Hateeb the
Loving the variety of cars. Loving the swiftness of the video, no rambling 👍🏽
Ibbyraja123 Thank you 👍🏼
No problem bro, keep em coming 👊🏽
Looking at the ep3 as a potential next car for me and I got happy when I saw that you did a review for it. Hamza, watching this video couldn’t stop thinking about what you’re going thru rn. Just wanted to say keep on fighting and thanks for the content you give us real people out there.
Oh man, you finally did it! I remember I really wanted to see what you think of it last year. Good job on the video👊
That smile after you come off the accelerator after using the redline in a Honda K20 car, is something you can't not do!
Managed to put into words on film exactly what it's like driving the ep3 R, great review
Good Video and glad you posted about a Ep3 as there such a great machine. Looking forward to some more stuff
This video makes me miss my Honda Type R ep3 Premier edition in grey, VTEC kicked in Yo! nice job Hamza good video man keep up the good work👏
Shep Dogg Thank you!
just got a grey prem few months ago ;(
Awesome video and you Really caught the sounds brilliantly. I know in today's turbo world, it's a different kettle of fish and some can't see the point but Honda should be applauded for designing these high revving beasts even if technology has moved in a different direction
That EP3 looks so clean, nice video btw. Keep up the awesome videos
Wow that car pulls quick, great vid hamzah once again
Congratulations brother Vtec just kicked in your mind.
Happy New Year Peeps! First the R32 upload followed up with the EP3; great way to end the year bro!
Before i even watch it... ima jus know its a good video haha!!
Happy new years mate:))
Rifet Amini Haha! Happy New Year 🙌🏼
Keep up the good varied work Hamza. All the best for 2019
Thank you will keep it coming! Happy New Year
Great video, can't beat turbo for torque as a daily. But also can't beat VTEC for the spirited drive you get and the cross over sound.
Keep it up bro, loving the content!
Inshallah 100k by end of 2019
Itz Reh Thank you bro!
Really growing this channel my guy! 💯
Hamza sounds like a really nice down to earth guy. Wish him all the best. Another great video brother. Keeo up the hard work
Thank you for the kind words brother. Happy New Year 👍🏼
Amazing car still the best Civic Type R of the 21st century , the new one lacks the soul
Seeing them new transitions my guy👌🏾
Glad someone noticed 👌🏼
My mates Eg 4wd with b18 turbo is nearly finished will give you a shout. Its a fully stripped EG, 4wd with a fully built b18 and his looking at around 500hp. Thats gona be mental on eg shel
Yeah that sounds nuts, defo up for that. You got any pics of it’s current state? Drop me a message on Insta @trhamza_ so I can make a note of this
my fav youtube channel
Good video bro deffo need some more Vtecs on ur channel
Watching this does make me miss my ep3 😩
3 years daily driving my ep3 couldn’t ask for more!
Sweet ep3 dude!
I love this guy!!! What a legend and what a car!!! 👍🏾
Haha too kind! 👊🏼
beautiful car...great video hamza!!!
Literally decided to sell my BMW 320D Xdrive to buy EP3 Type R after watching this! Let's goo!!!
I had a black premier edition for 11 years it was a great car and never let me down. Very difficult to part with it but the FK2 makes up for it.
Had ep3 7yrs now onto fk8 3month epic big red H
I’m still a sucker for a nice type r and that’s clean! 🚗💨Vtec yooo
Hero car, sick vid pal. Subbed 👌🏼
LemmyBoy Thank you mate 👌🏼
I love that sound
After looking at this I wanna purchase 1 of these bad boys now😍
Looks like a delight to drive.
Jose M. Molina Ocampo It was great
Ek9 ep3 and fn2 are my favorite civic type R models of all time.
Feel like I need one of these! 👍🏻
I can’t wait to get one
This is probably the best sounding ep3 that I have heard.
kp yang lol thanks, I didn’t want a tinny/fart box sounding civic so i went for this setup
Hey man, where in the UK did you get this exhaust from? Custom made or ordered from a shop? Thanks
All i heard you say through out this video is V-tec over 20x plus times lmaooo good video keep it up
I saw this video on YT of cop car chasing a Type R like this... it was insane... Cop car had no chance in the town... this guy was driving like a demon and i swear the Type R he was chasing was fully modded, quicker then this one... sick
You just got a new subscriber! Awesome videos man! 🙏
Thanks man! Welcome to the channel 👊🏼
@@TRHamza 🙏🙏
You could do a video around a Dacia and I'd still be here, killing it
Love the support mate, Happy New Year 👍🏼
Mate, i really enjoyed that. RRRIIIIING ITS NECK, HAMZA, Ring its neck😁
Wicked motor great video! Yo this beast is burning oil bro
Nice vid Hamza, I had 2 ep3s before switching to the German cars and still miss that pure vtec induction and exhaust sound! 👍🏼
Mk4-heaven Thank you mate, was great fun
Great vid, hi guys I have Milano red 04 ep3 with only 51k miles on the clock for sale with full service history and all previous mots, it’s always been garaged, completely standard other than a induction kit, still got original. It’s hpi clear and in extremely good condition, seats are unmarked never been smoked in, alloys are immaculate. I am an enthusiast and have only ever used shell v power in it. It’s for sale for £6000 no offers, don’t really want to sell it but I really want the new ctr
Theres something called Autotrader/Gumtree?
The first smile when ye floor it man ahhhh VTEC now boi
First view and first comment. Always loving your work!
that blue smoke though😎
Cracking car, Had a silver one 5 years 👌
Happy new year TR Hamza 👍👍👍
Happy New Year mate!
I have a 310bhp mini cooper s F56 stage 1 mapped. Pippercross panel filter and lowered on H&R springs. Got loads more plans for summer. I'm in Stafford so if you ever wanted to give it a drive let me know 👊
Yes cuz, maaaaaad video and even maddaah car.
It's a perfect ep3
I’m a big Honda glad (and surprised) you bought this on the channel. Glad you driven it now you understand its about the experience not the power because compared to a lot of cars these are not that quick
Great motors
Standard they arent that fast but with a few bolt ons they keep up with all the modern Hot Hatches easily, if you add FI to them they are another level.
Sound reminds of them old need for speed games. Epic.
Naughty sound!
I used to have one, felt rapid. When I got my 8v s3 it didn't feel anywhere near as quick as my ep3. Vtecccccc
More heavier , get it mapped
Love these. I bought one new back in the day.
What power is this one putting out?
Happy New Year TR.
Keep up the good work.
John Smith Happy New Year mate, owner reckons it’s around 210-215
Thanks TR.
Woww, so nice exhaust sound at 6:28 ilikeit
Great vid 👌🏽
Thank you 👍🏼
To everyone saying its a japanese/ jdm car. Its not its ukdm. The were manufactured in Swindon (UK) the only ep3 thats jdm is the championship white edition, which was exported to japan for domestic sale. Then some imported back👍🏼
My fave car & what a beast it is. Good do 😁😍
drove a friends 486bhp EP3. now that was scary. IN THE DRY
Had 2 of these bad boys epic cars
Always wanted one of these
Smokes like fuck! Thats one knackered engine. I had an 53 plate and was a couple of years old but it never smoked, I cained the arse out of it too. Lovely car and I miss it so so much.
Dope video
Richie Rich Mo3 👊🏼
That sounds it make from the rear outside 🙈😮🤙🏽🇯🇲
Happy New Years hamza!
Anoop Singh Happy New Year to you as well!
TR Hamza cheers bro
Love you vids mate, have you done one on a scirocco R?
0:16 bwaaaaahh👌
Loved mine!
Had to sell it a few months ago due to having my first child, so decided to get something bigger and a BITTTT more sensible...so I got a JDM 98 Subaru Legacy GTB Twin Turbo (Manual) now, cars basically stock minus an exhaust and intake. Standard from the factory with 280bhp and Bilstein Suspension. If that's something you'd want to review, let me know....
I'm in Dudley, West Midlands.
Cheers
Mr Dayum Fine love to see this one
Haha!! Nice swap. I’ve still got mine and I have two daughters the Mrs has the sensible car. Focus 1.5 ecoBoost lol.
You genuinely look like you’re enjoying it
It was good fun for sure
Love this car... It's a shame you drove it like a turbo tho lol need to really keep it hi revs it responds better up there trust me go again and don't be shy lol let the vtec scream... You was getting it near the end of the video... Happy new year though love the content
Great video, I'm genuinely thinking of buying one but wonder if they are really worth 4k? Also rotas are not genuine stuff, a set of te37's would of been amazing! Rotas don't do them justice
Tastefully modded.
Type r's will skyrocket up in value soon.
Get a good one while you can.
why will they skyrocket ?
You weren’t wrong my friend. They’ve climbed in value. Truly legendary cars
to get used to where to shift try shifting straight after it hits the rev limiter. Also Powershift to get more power
My dream car
Decent vid. Do more Japanese cars , turbo EP3 👍
Will do when one becomes available to film!
Love the ep3, fast and light. Had mine up to 155 hard to believe but it's true. Timing chain and bearing in the engine went at 112k
Really? I thought Honda engines were bullet proof and known for their reliability.
@@solefreak2 They are if you replace the timing chain tensioner, common fault with the K20 unit. Put the right oil in it at the right intervals, don't rag it from cold, it'll run forever.
@@solefreak2 I did my best to save it but after spending over a grand on a timing chain then the first time I gave it a good blast then the horrible noise started. Couldn't be bothered to spend any more so I sold it 600 pound and got a golf R, now I need a clutch lol yes the R is faster but doesn't feel 100 bhp faster as it's a heavy lump, iv never been blown away by the golf R nothing special until you tune it.
@@jamstersmith4625 The Golf R should be a lot quicker than the Type R. I've driven the Honda when they first released, excellent handling but need to be worked hard to gain or feel any speed. In fact my previous diesel 330cd would leave the Type R's on a rolling drag and from stand still.
@@solefreak2 but have you drove the golf R? Mine is manual so alot slower than the dsg. The golf feels so heavy but planted at the same time. My honda had a de cat and I raced loads of ep3 s fn2 and by the end of third gear I'd be well infront. My mate said his subaru was 300 brake and would kill my ep3 so we went for a race. He started ahead too. Take a look at the videoczcams.com/video/2FQfkuC4620/video.html
K20 yow!! 😍👌🏼
Dream spec
Been debating whether to get one of these or not but as I have a family, I settled on a MK3 GS430. Can't beat the luxury, space and that V8 roar!
Looking to fit custom exhaust soon, will upload a video when I do.
Keep up the good videos 😎
Ep3 is my favourite gen
Sick video mate 👌if you run out things to review I got hr 350z !
I really miss my EP3 after some numb nut had no idea what his middle pedal was for... and slammed into the back of me and wrote off my EP3 back in 2013 just before Xmas... I then got the FN2 model Champ White Edition which looked good from the outside... but man alive... it was a massive step backwards performance wise coming from an EP3..
The cons of a FN2:-
1. It's heavier than the EP3..
2. It has electronic throttle which isn't as sensitive as drive by wire which the EP3 has..
3. The VTEC X-over is more linear whereas the EP3 VTEC comes in with a jolt...
4. The spoiler running through the back window obstructing your rear view was a dim idea...
5. Torsion beam as oppose to rear independent suspension as on the EP3..
The pros of a FN2:-
1. The interior is a lot nicer with better seats and that split level space age looking dash..
2. It's Jap.. so you don't have to worry about it breaking down.. Lol
In short the FN2 is a grown up Type R. Whereas the EP3 is a hooligan in need of an ASBO!
That K20 block you can thrash the f*** out of it.. without the fear of it breaking.... and it will keep on asking for more!
🔥
First time hearing someone with a British and Indian accent at the same time
Please do a mini meet and greet in brum see you fly around always shy to say hi.
People just don't understand the ones that make fun of Hondas that is. Even if you're not going super fast the noise your brain hears when the cams come on there's just nothing like it it's just such a visceral sound
Now THATS a sleeper
Go to the circuit man!
Love it mate! I really want to start doing reviews on my channel. Any advice on how to get started? I tried once and deleted the video immediately 😂
