I have *never* driven a lowered S2000 that handled better than one at the stock ride height. And I've driven my share of them.

A good quality set of shocks with the stock springs will improve the car's handling better than these crappy/cheap/terrible quality $600 "coilover" setups that places sell.

I mean, c'mon... Our STOCK shocks have remote reservoirs... If you're going to upgrade to an aftermarket shock, why go BACKWARDS a step and put on some piece of crap that doesn't even have a remote reservoir?

Just my $.02.
Last time I checked, koni's don't have remote reservoirs and are a much better shock. Just throwing that out there.

That's debatable in the S2000 application, quite honestly.

It depends on the application and reviews can be subjective. Do they say it's better on the street or at the track? Better how? Less body roll? Smoother ride? Gotta take reviews/recommendations with a grain of salt until there is actual proof on paper that lap times have decreased or whatever numbers are needed for the application you're using it for.
