@@HazewinDog How should I know that? But for the sound, search for "The Wartburg - The sound" on yt. Pretty similar to this Honda, even though they are completely different engines.
Honda eagerness and passion is on full tilt! Needs some fine tuning looks like, but really solid overall. Interesting sounds too. I bet you have driven more kinds of cars than 99% of people on earth. Your ability to hop in something and go pretty dam fast right away is a serious testament to your skill!
Based on the way that car sounds that check engine light is a p0420...I have zero doubts haha. In all seriousness what a wonderful piece of kit. The fact that you took the jump at Pflanzgarten says how well the car is setup.
I hope this EP3 drive brings you a step closer to building your own Misha, would love to see what sort of mods of someone with your experience on the ring would do to a FWD car!
By far my favorite type R. I was obsessed with this car back in the day, but I couldn't afford it. I'm really hoping to get one now as a toy and set it up for track days.
The weight transfer @3:03 and the pass smiling @3:35 was great, it looked like he looked up and said "Oh $#!i, we made it" and then smiled haha. Also, the intentional mid corner understeer test at the corners was amazing, then @6:31 with the outside so smooth! Then @8:16 onwards... that is such a ride to imagine! You can wheel the hell out of any car!
I think it's fair to say that the K20 (the real K20, not the K20C1) has firmly secured it's place in the pantheon of the greatest car engines of all time! Blessed are the platforms that carry it!
Makes me miss my old EP3. That had the Gruppe M (or Tegiwa) intake too. Definitely seems to be less of them on the road in the UK these days. Rust was eating mine up when I sold it 4 years ago.
I know the owner of Areamotorsport used to race in the civic cup series before going into 24 hour and now has one off the most successful business in Uk for Hondas Also bought my Ep3 off me when sold it before getting JCW
I currently drive an M240i, I love it! Its an absolute beast of a car and such a good rewarding drive around the Nordschliefe! I also own a mk3 CRX jdm sir! I miss the VTEC 170bhp scream fron the b16a engine, the ability to hammer in to any bend create lift off oversteer or simply be 100% planted round the bend with the knowledge that you are going where you intend too is such an amazing experience on top of the VTEC sound deliciousness! I have nothing but smiles and envy!
Had my first track day (experience thing, basically had someone guiding me) and I must say, you make it look easier than it is. Merry Christmas to everyone!
Обожаю Хонду, обожаю Vtec, этот звук просто песня для моих ушей. Жаль, что таких авто становится все меньше и меньше. Спасибо Миша за отличный круг. 👏🏼
Ep3 is a great package for fun with a reasonable price and even a decent price in the aftermarket world, ( besides for example Portugal where Ep3 type R's are getting very pricey)... .. Great video and happy holidays for everyone...
Needs a proper map and adjustment from M.K Performance. Tps or something seems to play up on it n some times from 5k to 6500rpm it falls flat then picks back up. The engine light suggests its either got a decat or something and the map isnt for it.
Honda power....it keeps giving 6 - 9 k revs....what more....great car......hot lap. love it when Misha is passed by (anybody) he goes in "competition mode" and tries to keep up ( or more...)...cheers.

Ye, realy to bad man, with the k20A2 it's just so much more fun, but on the other hand, we were a little jelous that we didn't get the K20a hahahaha But still think it was a mistakke to put in the k20a3 in such a big market @@TorraTech
That one video with the red ep3 made me buy an ep3 😅 they are great. Sadly i ran into a clutch issue the day after i bought it and havent realy driven it much. I need to get i up and running again 😢
As an owner on his second EP3 having owned one 18 years ago this was beautiful to watch. One of the best fast cars for UK roads having beautiful handling, narrow enough to thread through fast narrow country roads whilst avoiding potholes and plenty fast enough in the real world. Would be keen to know more about the steering upgrades as I would love more feel in my car, that's my only criticism.
I am simple person. I see EP3 I watch it no matter how many those were on channel
They steal the show always,even d16s dkslsodosl
Checking in with my '02!
Simple persons tend to be sheep that copy and paste other people's ideas
More ep3 videos please 😌
Exactly, me too
You can see the owner smiling under the helmet almost the whole time
he is asian
@@visker81 please, leave us alone
Asian eyes doesn't mean we're smiling 😂
what did he say?@@WasnClown
@@JimMcBeam ''he is asian'' just some trolling nvm
this car in now 20 years old and still running strong.
Honda Quality 💪🏻
K20 power 💪
The engines tend to last longer than the car 😂
On these salty British streets for sure @@ItsBuster
Best motor company in the world right here baby
The sound this car makes is so beautiful, nice car and nice lap Misha, both my ears and eyes enjoyed that. Thank you! 🥰
no replacement for NA VTEC :P
The owner literally heard his exhaust for the first time ever😂
Sounds like a tuned Wartburg.
@@M_Andras you have my attention. now where does one buy a tuned Wartburg?
@@HazewinDog How should I know that? But for the sound, search for "The Wartburg - The sound" on yt. Pretty similar to this Honda, even though they are completely different engines.
God I love this channel, its the variety of cars & seeing Misha absolutely drive the wheels off them is a pleasure.

Jappo with a Vtec JDM? I put like.

As an EP3 owner an AWD swap from a Wagovan or CRV is the best mod and easy to do on the EP3.
Silence from Misha for about 9 minutes = ep3 = great drive! 😅 The owner looked like his mouth was wide open and smiling for the whole lap too 😊
this thing needs a Turbo
@@JimMcBeam Turbo ruins the balance. If anything - supercharger will be better.
Put ITBs on it and it will even sound wilder.
thats what you call pushing a car to its limits. it was phenomenal to watch!
By far my favorite type R. I was obsessed with this car back in the day, but I couldn't afford it. I'm really hoping to get one now as a toy and set it up for track days.
Honda civic is an iconic car! Hope to drive one soon!
Buy one you will feel much better 😅
@@willludwig1356 I have thought about it! Let's see if Santa will bring a Civic for Christmas 😁
Let's hope you will be Vtecing into the new year like bwwwaaaaaa!!! 🎉🎉
I've had three. Great cars.
Why three? You had problems with them generally?@@jdmguy44
Honda VTEC +Misha +Nurburgring = EMOTION❤
Mihalych is best ! Keep that Honda community alive man! Thank u for everything that you are making and doing!!

“Sticker says area.”

I love Honda's VTEC, i have FN2. Its crazy how powerful and fast can be NA 2.0 4 cylinder ❤
I've had an EP3 for 6 years. Bred for the track. The fact one of your fastest lap times is in this 20 year old Honda proves how good they are 🔥
Vtec and 9k rpm my Christmas is complete thank you 🙏 Misha !!! Honda The power of dreams !!! 😜👍🇦🇺
The top end pull from 110mph-130mph is really quite impressive.
VTEC baby 😎
it was downhill tho...
@@pompelopalso on another part of the track
fantastic drive, I have a ep3 and one day I will get it to the ring !

Love hondas brilliant bit of engineering
Always got love for a k20
Incredible lap and the noise of that V-Tech on full chat at 140 is insane
Bro its VTEC. Not Vtech, thats a toy for children😂😂
@@safballer well, so are hondas right?
bought an ep3 in 2015, love to see this, still got it
Same 155k miles still going strong
nice work of keeping it in vtec misha!, it reved well, pretty good setup
Used to own an EP3 and I absolutely loved it, especially on track 👍🏻
You know misha is enjoying himself when he is silent for that long. Definitely a fun car to drive
Rev limiter party, laps with honda's are always great, so much noise, emotion and just pure enjoyment. Cheers!
Love the ep3 never had one but I've owned four ev 1 civics and loved them all I miss them all great video misha as always
Badass. Performance Hondas are just so engaging and raw. I love them. Not willing to give up my S2000-Type R combo for anything.
Very impressive!!!!
Gave the BMW a good run for its money!
One of the best little hot hatches! I don’t know how people cannot enjoy that sound 😍
I used to own a EP3 and there’s nothing like that on track ❤️
K20 doing what is was build for, road racing and Heavy Revvs.
You Can Never Have Enough VTEC!
Misha 's recipe of pleasure: 10k rpm +VTEC effect + a ring = 😎🎉❤
I would like to see Misha running the Fudji speedway with DK tsuchiya ❤❤
EP3 is an engineering masterpiece.
Awesome footwork Misha!
The ep3 is amazing.
Te driver is god
Jump to the Sky Bro!!!
No limits!!! No fear!!
No change...be real misha forever!!!
4:29 to 4:40 ... Amazing control Misha. I got goosebumps.
Спасибо за ep3, Михаил! У меня был такой для японского рынка.
Действительно простое и максимально эффективное авто
hopefully someone bring civic fd2r...i want to see that civic dancing inside Nürburgring
That thing rips!!! It tore up the ring with ease.
Обожаю Хонду, обожаю Vtec, этот звук просто песня для моих ушей. Жаль, что таких авто становится все меньше и меньше. Спасибо Миша за отличный круг. 👏🏼
More ep3 please. Drive the JDM version ep3 next 😊
Ep3 is a great package for fun with a reasonable price and even a decent price in the aftermarket world, ( besides for example Portugal where Ep3 type R's are getting very pricey)... ..
Great video and happy holidays for everyone...
VTEC! 🤘🏻😎
Quality car, I’d love one in cosmic grey
Mooie ronde. Als je het gas los laat klinkt de motor als een 3 cilinder tweetakt, best apart geluid is dat.
i had a 2003 ep3 and i regret selling it so much... damn why did i sell that car! my first car also
Bonkers lap, love it 🫶👊💥
The king of the mass produced 4 bangers
This car is from an era when Honda built amazing engines. The new stuff if plagued with overheating.
You gotta remember, Honda has always been NA, give them some time with Turbo engines and they'll get it right.
@@familialgameaholics7618 it's not new to them. They were running turbocharged motors in F1 over three decades ago.
I mean that’s most cars today isn’t it unfortunately
I love a vtec sound ❤

looks like a very engaging drive
The videos Misha makes with screaming hondas is so much more fun to watch with Eurobeat banging in the background of the video.
I drive the Fl5 but the ep3 is deep in my heart! ❤️
On Hondas, that engine light is usually just for you to remember to check if the engine is still there
It’s a Honda it will always be there
I LOVE IT EP3’s videos 🔥🔥❤️ and all hondas videos
Seeing this makes me so happy, had the ep3 si as my first car but didn’t know the capabilities of it. Ep3 ftw!
The Si has the K20A3, The EUDM the K20A2 ( even better is the JDM with the K20A ) also the suspension on the USDM EP3 is different . Not to bash you, but the USDM EP3 can't be compared to the EUDM or JDM, you got screwed with that 1 ;)
@@DidiPipo well I didn’t have a choice I was gifted this, I know I had the k20a3 in comparison to the usdm rsx type s that has the A2.
Ye, realy to bad man, with the k20A2 it's just so much more fun, but on the other hand, we were a little jelous that we didn't get the K20a hahahaha But still think it was a mistakke to put in the k20a3 in such a big market @@TorraTech
Its a drivers car. Good handling, brilliant engine. 200bhp stock. £3500 can buy one £3500 on mods. I own two ✌🔰🏴
Even got some air time in at 8:13
Hondas are so involved when driving. I miss mine 🥲
I….LOVE….the sound…of VTEC!!!! 😍😍😍😍
You're an absolute machine bro x
Would love to see the outside photo from the jump, rear end looked like it was over a foot in the air.
always best videos to watch are a combination of misha and a honda high revving engines. Buy one man 🎉
Misha + VTEC + 'Ring = Fuck Yeah!!😍🤤🤌
Driving alongside modern M2`s with this car is just example of what old honda where.
This guy just crushes this track in any car. So bad ass
Easily my favorite car. I am biased owning a jdm ep3 R championship white with red interior. ❤
That one video with the red ep3 made me buy an ep3 😅 they are great. Sadly i ran into a clutch issue the day after i bought it and havent realy driven it much. I need to get i up and running again 😢

where is this EP3 originally from? the speedo is primarily in mph
Gearbox is strong but its done some miles looking at those worn pedals
If anyone wants to know the definition of a momentum car, this video sums it up perfectly.
Wow Misha... That was a beautiful lap🙆
I love Misha rep hard for the honda boyz !!!+
That was wild.
Hey Misha i think you should team up with Rochester's House Of Boost. That Saab Time Attack car would be cool to see on your channel
sounds beautiful ❤❤❤
Why is the engine management light on? Love the sound of the Type R.
What a pilot!
its a good day when misha uploads a honda
Please do „daily car on Nurburgr” serie :) I’d like to see proceed, some civics but 1.5t etc. Or their brakes wont last till the end of S1?
4:47 Nice!
Perfection for a track
