S2KIP's S2000

[Chris.]

I think Des may have made that up.

Looking at the threads on S2KI during the winter months then I'm sure it's not that unbelievable

Also, Chris and I are praying we never have to buy one of these new.

Wow not cheap.

I saw the price to replace the full ep3 premier edition Recaro. Over 2K a seat. Def be going for second set if I ever need them.

It was late, I was tired, etc etc.

Anyway I googled it and read about people in the northern territories of Canada driving in -25 conditions. We have nothing to moan about lol.

When's this booked in for coils, wheels, calipers etc. Chris - cannot wait to see the result; it's going to look and perform immensely, I'm sure.

As above, it was booked in 3 days ago.

 

[TypeRiter]

Ha Ha - I'm not as regular on here as I used to be, and I thought it was early/mid August.

But wow - it looks amazing - that tyre gel though!

I'm not surprised in how the parts have combined to tighten the handling - I bet the car is a real weapon.

 

[Chris.]

Thanks. It is a bit of a weapon now yeah, except it's like Zoolander.

Basically since fitting the J's manifold, I've had an issue where the steering column touches the manifold slightly on hard left turns. I had Performance Autoworks put a small shim in which seemed to have cured initially it but it's started again recently.

Spoke to Tom at TMG and asked if he could add a larger shim, he said he wasn't comfortable doing as it's basically altering the way the engine sits (and subsequently gearbox, propshaft etc) and suggested some Spoon engine mounts. The OEM ones that are on have never been changed, and although they're not split, they probably aren't as strong as when new. So it looks like I'll have to spend out again. Fcuking cars! :lol:

I wasn't keen on using aftermarket engine mounts as I don't like the additional vibration, however the Spoon ones are rubber and not polybush, so shouldn't be as bad as the ESMM one I had on my old ATR. We shall see.

Looking good.

I think it needs a front lip of some kind now to add to the aggressive look

How much lower is it now Chris? Will probably need a set of these mate.

[Chris.]

It's 25mm lower than stock, more or less the same as it was on the springs.

 

[J7]

After time if you start to feel a slight vibration at speed from the diff those will sort it out. Inevitably happens mate.

 

[Loxy]

I remember Suits putting something similar on his.

 

[Bonito]

With regards the spoon blue. I tried having it on a set of ARB's. Colour looks completely off once it went from the gun to the ARB.

I'll look into it, thanks.

Classy build mate, love it. Those wheels are perfect on an S2000 :smt023

 

[jimbothemagnificent]

I imagine the Spoon blue would be hard to match.

Nissan intense blue pearl is pretty close, with the callipers being so far apart it wouldn't be too obvious. Not sure how well halfrauds rattlecan paint would stand up to the temperatures though.

 

[Chris.]

To be honest I don't mind it being a slightly different shade, my OCD isn't that bad.

JAE prep.
