Have any of you heard of EP3s getting stolen often or broken into? Is it a common thing or is it a once in a blue moon type of deal?

 

I don't think EP3's or RSX's get stolen as much as say a any 2000 and older honda. For instance if you search for stolen car threads on Clubrsx you only like 20 threads about stolen Rsx's

 

the only real way it can be stolen is if the thief has kpro with them because the imobalizer

I don;t think the Ep3 is a high target car...not like the Dc2's were.

 

EP3/DC5 are rarely stolen compared to most Honda's. EP3 less than DC5.

 

EP3 aren't stolen as much, but there also not as common as others

 

The a3 is like the d16. Crap motors and no one really want's them.

 

I was going to say that, but didn't want to hate on the car.

It's more like a torquey b16 in a heavy, "ugly" car. If the k20a3 came in an eg-looking/weighted hatch in 02-05, the a3 wouldn't take so much heat. The EP is just too big for the a3.

Also, nobody wants the a3 because after they spend $5000 to swap a k they may as well spend another $2000 and get a 40 hp increase and real vtak.

Hey, I have seen an eg's with A3's in them.

 

I agree, the a3 is underpowered for the ep3, that's why i swaped a k24 in mine.

 

^ Damn baller.

k24 = $1000

 

Only thing with the EP3 is that they probably won't be stolen completely. But i know of many people who have had they car broke into and stole all the interior, body kits, wheels, and so on. The chassis is pretty much the bastard child of Honda.

But i love mine!

Good thing for us! It's DEFINITELY a love it or hate it car.

 

I love my k24 but damn, it feels so slow with out my turbo.

 

EP's are trash that's why people don't steal them...well unless you have a k24 then you're balling out of control

 

I'm always ballin, It's a way of life.
