My GP White S2000 Build
#24
I got them from another s2000 driver,they were on his vgs since imported.iv never seen another set of either for sale outside the states.
Iam selling the genuine airwalker lip in the for sale section if your intrested
Each to their own and all that,personally i find the black interior a little boring,and the red/black interior make me wish it was full red. Weather it reminds me of the type r heritage or the interior of some sort of budget supercar i am not sure what the appeal is.
But build is based around the full red interior and it wouldnt be what it is without in my humble opinion.
Thanks buddy

replica bbs lms were always a stop gap while i searched for something more genuine.
With my dc2 in winter slumber i drove for some time on its borrowed TE37s mostly to keep the tyres from going bad.
however although beautiful the 16s were a little lost under the arches.Handleing was much improved from the 18" however
I eventually found a set of genuine BBS LM .Specs were 8x8 front and 8x9 rear et 35 all around which was tipping the max for standard s2000 arches so i had them professionally rolled without cracking paint.
225/45/17 and 204/45/17s slightly streched bridgestone potenza Re50 and uniroyal rainsport 2s were the tyre of choice.
The wheels came off a drift car and although straight were in a pretty poor condition
So i got them split and custom polished.Came out pretty snazzy
New BBS valve stems
Picked up an oem hardtop,fitting kit and a genuine honda hard top stand
big transformation in the car
Next came the small niggly jobs.
I replaced a sticky caliper with a refurbished pair
Shinetsued greased up the seals to prevent a leaky roof
found out the start button should stay lit and never did in mine,had a few other annoying dash bulbs not lightinging so i changed the lot.Got a good deal off SI on here.
Had to lower the steering colume to get at them
out with the old
in with the new
decied to rust proof the car.got the full dintrol kit off cleancar.ie
up on axle stands and the dirt work began.
the underbody wax leaves a lovely almost fresh paint finish

dropped her another 20mm in the front.
gave it an oil change before its nct last month,passed bar the jap plates (they passed them at the same center 12 months previous)
a few pics from the rally of the lakes in co Kerry in May
Edit,not my tyre marks on the road btw,i despise seeing S2000 abused .
Pretty much done modifying it,now just time to enjoy it.
