Getting closer guys

These are what I've been looking at as a rough idea for mine

The white

Or the black

Going to be doing a new mod over the next few days.

Brake caliper painting.

I think keyser will approve

Id be looking at going all one colour on the wheels if it was me, otherwise its looking awesome mate

Its a takeda intake from tarmacsportz on here.

Click my sig and go to page 6

Gold is one colour I'm really not feeling on a black car. I'd consider a Matt bronze but I'm not a fan of gold.

Anyone bored then?

Guys, if anyone is bored tonight or over the weekend, would you mind doing me a quick photoshop of the wheels please.

The 3 colours I'm after are either

White

Satin black

Gun metal

No polished lip, just all one colour

If anyone fancies trying something "out there" aswell then knock your selfs out. Orange, pink keyser green, I'm open to ideas.

Cheers guys

Ive got an s2000

Anymore for any more, going to be cosie just me and dan

Love the look of your car mate. Those wheels really set it off.

What's the plans then? Go on, tell us.

I get enough of those cryptic comments on face book statuses, normally by women. You've not had the op have you??

makes me miss my black 02 S2000, one of the best cars i've owned. best has been the XKR but for completely different reasons. the S2K was the best drivers car i've had, and i reckon i'll go back at some point and have another.

 

I've got all my detailing stuff at mine if you fancy a visit, i used it all on mine to correct the black paint. got DA polisher and everything.

I will probably take you up on that offer rich, always fancied having a go on a DA polisher. I will let you know, cheers mate.

Very nice car there mate, I loved mine when I had it. Have you had the geometry set up since you lowered it - don't want another expensive 'incident' after the engine scenario

Geo is going to be done soon. I don't drive it all that much so it's ok for now. Although to be honest I can't say it feels like it needs doing, it all seems quite planted and doesn't feel like it wants to let go at any point.

Cheers for the positive feedback guys.

Oh, and any budding detainers in the essex area want something to practice on let me know. The paint is terribly swirly.

Will try my best mate. Hopefully I'll have made a decision on the wheels and had them refurbed by then as well

Haha

NSX or the r34 GTR

Why you selling it, and what's next?

Who cut the vents in your bonnet, and how did they do it?

Tarmac, no worries mate. They aren't the best quality pictures though as they were taken on my phone. I'm sure I can get dan to bring his camera to the essex meet in May we can get you some better ones.

Re the brace, my engine bay as you can see is not the nicest cosmetically and if I'm honest I'll probably be going green with the rocker cover and calipers so red won't go. Thanks for the offer though.

Will the j's spoiler be the single blade one or the one with the smaller second blade at the rear? If it's the smaller ill happily accept a deal on one of those.

I'm hoping it's this one

In regards to the comparison to the 350. The power delivery is completely different. It's all 5800 up on the honda. Whereas the 350 as you all know has this big lump of power readily available most of the time. You need to drive the s2000 properly to get the best out of it, dropping gears etc whereas you could be lazy with the 350.

The vtec is addictive. I'm like a child if I'm coming up to a tunnel with no cameras in.

as some of you know I sold my 350z last year in order to buy an s2000 and put some money aside.

Well it didn't quite work out as planned and the engine blew up in the s2000 on my way home from collecting it. (I'm not wanting the thread to go along the lines of go round with a bat etc. it's being sorted legally and civilly) Believed fault with the oil system. Nothing I could have done to prevent it. Was a ticking time bomb but you live and learn.

Anyways, after a new engine i finally got it home

Here is how it stood

I fitted a k&n induction kit and new pads and discs

Picked up some new wheels, not sure on the colour and polished lip at the time, still not sure now

Desperatly in need of lowering I got myself some springs and down she went

En fitted some tarmac side diffusers and an apr splitter (these aren't fitted as such so I had to drill holes etc and have custom brackets fabricated)

So as it stands now

Now, I'm happy with where it is now. Thinking a BGW or a low level OEM spoiler. And refurb ing the wheels satin black, or going the complete other way and going for white?

Rich, how's the jag coming along?

I'll see what the response is like for the saturday and maybe move it to the Sunday, or even Monday as it's a bank holiday.

Potentially ignorant post here but is the control while drifting not mainly down to the throttle control and steering more than grip provided by the tyres. Ie controlled skidding

And with the mpss, it's the all round performance that is the key. The falkens were switchy as **** in the wet. The mpss were planted all the time.

As in the ad08? They will be going on my s2000.
