Tie rod ends arent bad to do, but you NEED an alignment after it.

That car looks familiar. What dealership did it come from?

the dealer owes me an alignment so if they dont pay for the tie rods im gonna fix them myself and take it to them for the alignment...

My buddy Jon (kat from stlsr) and I went and test drove that EXACT car and 3rd gear was grinding. We drove it pretty hard to see if we'd notice anything.

Oh and, the suspension/front end was making funky noises at the time as well.

that was my mistake i didnt drive it hard and didnt notice the grind, the funky noises from the suspension are fixed, now it needs new tie rods an alignment and the honda dealer is going to replace the third gear syncro other than that i love this thing...

edit: you can tell that this car was put back to stock theres various bolts body clips missing nothing major. i guess its why this car was 3-4K less than some other similar ep3's...

OEM 02-04 Type-S Header
OEM 310cc Injectors with clips
Injen Short Ram Intake with heatshield

Unsure if these will fit an EP3 though.
