Added the UK 9000 rpm gauge cluster window... Also removed the oem color overlay and replaced it with the Qube Engineering white/red piece. Looks very similar to OEM but lighter in color.

Working on an aftermarket seat solution... work in progress... Buddyclub sport reclinable seats and Planted eBay copy seat brackets. Seat belt nut is from McMaster Carr 7/16"-20... https://www.mcmaster.com/catalog/126/3411/
Removed seat back flipper handle and reinstalled 180 degrees out and it fits much better. It was originally interfering with the rear side plastics on the car.
Removed one recline adjustment knob for a bit more clearance. This seat WILL fit with the knob attached but the seat belt hits the knob when flipping the seat forward so I removed it. This can be done simply by pulling on the knob.

These seats fit but are tight. They do not hit any part of the door or do not interfere with the center glove box door at all. In my opinion they are a great seat. Great looks, firm, grippy, comfortable positioning, considerably less sweat inducing than the OEM leather seats. On this bracket (Ebay Planted copies) without sliders the height is very close to OEM but just a smidge higher. I only had to raise my mirrors a very slight amount. Using sliders these will be higher than OEM by whatever the rail height. The downside is that for me there is just a bit less leg room by maybe 2 inches or so. One could drill additional holes in the seat bracket to move these closer to the rear of the car as there is just a bit more room for this. I Personally tend to have a higher than usual amount of recline to my seat backs and if I were to do this I would not be able to have the amount of seat back recline that I require. I am about 5'11" with a long 32" inseam (could be a 34" in some pants) and a 34"-35" waist. This is a very borderline for length for me and while I can drive the car with them, I will very likely not be keeping these. (I do have two of them). I am currently looking into fixed back buckets and have a few left to try. I may switch to those and sell these. This is sad because I really like these otherwise. Damn small S2000! Anyone interested in these please let me know. Currently back to stock for now.

I went with a 24x10.5x3.5" Garrett core for my IC setup. I have some treadstone cast end tanks on order for it but I don't think it's gonna happen....I haven't been able to get through to them at all, and it's been like 2+ months

Awesome! I'm glad this thread was some help to you. That's why I post everything. I try not to be greedy. I don't care about the money I've spent, I prefer to share knowledge, it's how we all can learn. If it wasn't for this site when I first started out I would have probably wasted even more money! Did you end up receiving the new version of the Hytech header? ...if so...do you have pics? I literally waited 2 years for mine!...yes...really. I also waited 1 year for the twinloop exhaust which i ended up selling because I didn't like it as much as the Fujitsubo Legalis R.

Regarding the Hytech header.....nope......I might end up just running my Toda Torquie-Kun header....Admittedly I even went ahead and bought the Toda header under the biased assumption that John wasn't going to come through for me, given his notoriety with that. I spoke with him about a month ago and he assured me he'd get to my header within the next couple weeks. I'm not holding my breath honestly. As far as pics here's some from a buddy who actually received his. I will say I'm not too keen on needing to reposition the oil filter with his new header design.

Thank you Sir for the kind words! Much appreciated! I'll look forward to seeing your build! If you ever have any questions please feel free to ask!
Boy that thing sure is sexy! Thanks for the pictures! I didn't know that you needed to relocate the oil filter...good info. It'd be interesting to see a back to back dyno of the new one vs mine! I'm sure the Toda header will work fine, that is the supposed "better" version. In my experience John will come through, its just that he's kinda like the Amish...you gotta keep checking in every so often to make sure it gets done!
