Or there's the Exige.. track applications like that no doubt will have passed you. I've seen blown Focus St's fly past exotica at Oulton many a time., and fettled stripped out old 205's and Clios.
Ginettas are popular but idk much about them.
Caterhams are the madman approach and you probably won't look back - hitch a ride in one of you can if it's still got it's 2 seats. I've seen some smaller cars shoehorn in that f20c in to great effect, power to weight and all that. If only the s2000 was 900kg eh?

To boost an S2 is not cheap, not an investment you can expect a return on if you decide to sell.

An SC kit is £5k
You need a clutch
An ECU
A tune

They need TLC too

There are better track cars for me. All lighter. None are Toyota. That's a road car and a fairly poor bang for buck one at that.

I seriously would consider 2 cars

Thanks for all the information and tips.

Several threads mentioned about brake cooling and rust. I’ve done quite a bit of work for these areas, see the photos.

I’m angling towards keeping the S2000 and when financial circumstances permit look at getting a Supra.

I think it would be prudent to get a passenger drive in a SC S2000, a Facebook group was mentioned is that the
Facebook Post
Because potentially there is £7-10k (sc, ecu, other parts, labour) saved if I don’t go ahead to put towards a Supra.
