New s2000 owner, big plans pics soon!
Hi everyone, I have never actually made my introduction on here but I have been posting before even buying my s2000.
My name is Armand I am 17 years old and still go to high school, I am a senior.
I just bought a 2003 NFR stock s2000 and have been modding it already before even getting my driving privledge back.
-Lost license about 5.5 months ago for getting 3 points in 12 month time. The first day that I got my license (the very same night) I got pulled over for exhibition of speed and wreckless driving... They ended up taking my integra and I to jail. Because of this stupidity I ended up getting 2 points, 2 hours in jail, and a hefty impound fee. It ended up costing around 2000$ to sort everything out (impound fee, ticket fees)... My teg was fully built including darton sleeves, stage 2 camshafts, wiseco low comp pistons, golden eagle rods, ferrea valves, crower valve springs/retainers, port and polished head, t3/t4 turbo kit, full suspension upgrades including all struts sway bars. Pretty much everything that can be done to the car was done and I never got a chance to dyno tune it so I ended up selling the car without actually takin it for a spin... With the money I sold the teg for and money I saved up in 5 months I got a 03 red s2000 with 40,000 miles for 17,000$
The mods that I currently have done to the car are:
K&N FIPK intake
AUT Carbon Cooling plate
Amuse style lip
Spoon hardtop with window
The lip and hardtop are currently being taken to paint and I should have these installed before I get my license back...
I WILL have pics of the car completed and post them on here because I have never seen a spoon hardtop on a red s2000, cant wait to see how it turns out.
Im looking forward to coming to a lot of the meets and be much smarter when it comes to driving, I have learned my lesson like crazy and will try to shave a couple lbs off my foot.
So ya, right now I am looking for some rim suggestions and which springs to drop the car on. Id really like black rims with a red lip, I think thatl look sick, any opinions??
Thanks guys, lookin forward to responses!!!
