Default Hello

Hello,
Just thought I would say hello, new to the S2000 world. Had a B18c powered Civic for the past 9 years but always wanted an S2000 so I finally bought one from Campus Honda. Its an 07, and I am loving it so far.
Not sure on plans with it yet but we will see where things go.

Anyways hello!

thanks,
yeah the red one . I am fairly new to S2000 but I have a fair bit of Honda experience so I know how much fun these cars are. I will have to find some pictures of my civic but it was daytona blue (350z blue) with bronze wheels. You likely have seen it around, I have been on Revscene since 02.
I will likely be there for the poker run, just gotta check dates again.

Do you guys have any experience or know anyone with the Invidia Q300 exhaust? I want to change the exhaust on mine cause its a bit loud for my taste.

I have Invidia N1V3 but you don't want to go there if you find your current exhaust too loud. I will PM you about the poker run James.

Its not so much about the loudness to be honest, its the droning that gets me and the current exhaust has an intermittent tinny sound I have found under partial throttle. After 9 years of a Civic I really prefer something different that this current sound.
My research so far makes me thing the Invidia Q300 is more of what I am looking for but we will see.

i purchased the Go Tuning / GReddy SE duals and it's top notch quality. i haven't put my one on yet, but i will be soon. from my research it's one of the best street-use duals out there right now. It's quiet and has almost no droning and looks amazing on both ap1 and ap2 bumpers. fitment is supposed to be perfect. if you don't mind the burnt tips, i think you should strongly consider this one. the sponsor has a thread up and there are many reviews on it. other than that, i heard the T1R 70 EM was pretty nice too. the thing i don't like about the q300 is the squarish canisters
