S2KIP's S2000

[Chris.]

Yes, I'm very worried actually. I can't run a wider spacer as I'd have to modify the arches, I don't really want to change the wheels and other BBK's need even more clearance. So I'm having to have a think about what to do. :lol:

 

[Doodle]

Quit being such a jessie, and just drive it? :lol:

That bronze finish on those wheels

Are you going to paint the rear callipers or not bother?

 

[Chris.]

Probably not, I imagine the Spoon blue would be hard to match.

As for the calipers, there's actually more clearance than the pics make out, just had a look at it and I think there's easily 2mm if not 3.

 

[Loxy]

That will be fine then. I had 3mm clearance on the Stoptechs with 15mm spacers and I ran those for a couple of years without issue.

 

[Bonito]

Yes!!!!

Loads of room there for the caliper. I'll take a pic of my Ksports on the Impreza to show you close.

 

[jimbodeeni]

Matching the Spoon blue paint shouldn't be a problem, but as the callipers are anodised, their blue paint or a match-up wouldn't be the same finish of the callipers anyway.

 

[Chris.]

I'll get a closer pic tonight if I remember. I'm just paranoid, the last thing I want is something hitting the spokes of the wheels.

Someone on the S2K forum asked if they're a copy of the Rota Fighter. :lol:

There's about 5mm between the brakes and the wheels. Chris measured it with his penis.

Seriously. There's loads of clearance.

If that ever comes up, my mate owns North West Propshafts. They've been known to do shafts for Astons at dealer request. I'm sure they could manage one of those and suitably uprated...

 

[dessimpson]

The number of S2000's on the road decreases 50% every winter. I'm quite sure there's no shortage of second hand propshafts!

Good to know Loxy, and Des that's a shocking statistic!
