Thanks, but far from the 'best'...there are some crazy and talented people on board.

The car is nice and all..and I appreciate your hard work but I don't think air ride is for an s2k imho
Your comment is nice and all, but I think you need to read further back. It's not typical air suspension.

@Vin: Great shots and vids man. Car looks amazing. Also liked seeing the battle scars on your fenders...makes me feel not-so-bad about mine
Thanks nick, yeah my car is FAR from mint. The pictures are deceiving and I always tell people not to be fooled. if you get up close you'll see all the scars. Every damage has a story for sure.

I remember when I picked up the car with 5000kms and it was stock and MINT. Couple weeks later it got egged and those marks still remain on the doors

I've been looking into this for quite a long time, since the NSX guys started doing this back in the day. Vin, Thanks for posting up so much thorough info on what is essentially a rare mod for the S, more info the better. Did you ever get into detail about how this effects suspension travel, adding a cup on top of the strut that is?
I remember asking him this question, I wrote down the answer but i don't have it on me.

I would love to shadow you while you do that so I can pick up some pointers. Your shots are always so crisp.

**UPDATE JUNE 10,2013** - QUICK UPDATE PART 1/2

How ya'll doing? Summer has arrived over here and I can't stop driving. I have put at least 3000 kms on the odo since last update. Might not seem like a lot to others, but every summer I try to drive as much as I can. I will do another update tonight/tomorrow morning with more text and pictures - it was an exciting weekend for me!!!!!!!!!!

Just wanted to share a few pictures that a friend has linked me. Did some digging and found the source...really cool shots and thanks whoever you are: http://www.flickr.co...s/jonnymooshoo/

These photos were taken at a grand opening for the new location of The Speed Syndicate collab BBQ with Static Captains.













The photos make my car look so mint!!!
