----------------------------------
So ... Who wants to run me through the Royal National Park in Sutherland?
----------------------------------
hehe, I ment doing some tests in the 'straighline' :-) I'm interested in how an AUS spec S2000 will fare against the J-spec one.

So, any takers in Sydney?

ps. What's this about 'Mr. CRX S2000' ... is that a CRX or S2000?

There are straight roads in the mountain passes, enough to make tests for 0-400m no doubt non the least. While the red S2000 is owned by an infamous Sydney car enthuiast naming his car "Mr CRX". Looks like he's upgraded himself and got a decent piece of machine. Only this time, turning it into something very distasteful and most appaling ugly. Don't have a picture of it but it's on display at the last Sydney Auto Salon organized by Cabin.

I'm trying to setup connections to see if I can get him to run me ... heh! Then I'll know, heard about some custom exhaust setup or something. Blah ... All show and no go, that's what I think. Those wheels have already won me!

2kturkey, those are useful links, thanks!.

I used to live in Saudi Arabia (both east and west cost) where humidity is 100% 7 or 8 months of the year , definitely used to notice a loss in power as oppose to when humidity was less.

Talking of modded S2000's which we weren't. My daughter has just recently seen two (black and red) modded ones around Baulkham Hills with the biggest front mounted Intercoolers that could fit in the opening. She said it was strange as they looked as though they were done by the same place as they had identical fittings, etc..

One was parked at the Gym she goes to (Bodyline - Castle Hill) so she was able to have a reasonably good look. Apparantly it had twin 4" dumpers from a massive single pipe but near standard bodywork and wheels. The other she just saw briefly parked and it had aftermarket wheels as they were chromed but she only got a flash of them.

Hmm, I wonder if the intercoolers are fake or are the real? Speak of which, there aren't many turbocharged S2Ks running around anywhere in this world.

My daughter is reasonbly switched on as I've had modded cars all her life and she is modding her own so at least on the one where she could get a good look it seemed real.

Certainly I know of (seen) at least 2 with turbos but have no idea on the quality or driveability of the mods. I am pretty sure that Croyden Autosport have done at least one mod.
