Thanks for the shot in your superb S2000 last Saturday

Its a little rocket

Expectations are always high when your involved-total quality is what springs to mind.
I love all the little touches that make it a JDM-BB4 production.
You were a naughty boy doing them donuts in the car park

Very nice.

My only finishing touches would be a set of AP2 wheels & K&N typhoon (sound immense!)

I would love a set of ap2 17's but they go for crazy money.
Happy with the bbs wheels for now.

Yeah nick, was a little naughty last Sunday but big open car park - couldn't resist!

Looking sweet Dave - yeah I prefer the BBS's loads more. Nice mods, but I'd expect nothing less form you.

Long overdue updates...

I think I previously forgot to mention that I bought colour coded facelift headlight washer jet covers for the front bumper a while back. No before or after pictures unfortunately, but you can see them in some of the pictures. I think they make a big difference to the black plastic ones normally found on the prefacelift.

I also replaced the sticking caliper with a refurbished caliper after a used replacment I had bought suffered the same fate and seized after only a few weeks!

The HEL braided lines went on at the same time and the calipers were painted and new dot 5.1 fluid.

Calipers before:

And after:

One of my rear wheel studs had been overtightened in the past and snapped when putting the wheel back on one day! You cannot replace the stud on the S2000 without splitting the hub as there is no gap to get the stud out in situ. So hub off, and 5 x new honda wheel studs and a new bearing for the hub when it gets split.

It was long overdue but I eventually refurbished the rocker cover.

And bought a cold air feed to port air from the front bumper grill straight into the airbox.
Before fitting I wrapped it in Carbon effect vinyl. Very tricky but looks good I think.

I also wrapped the headrest surrounds while I was at it.

Then one day I discovered someone had keyed the car!

It was down to the base coat and round onto the tail light.

The scratch on the plastic tail light sanded and polished out but the paint was too deep and my friend with a spray gun and I set about painting the rear 1/4.

Recent purchases have been Poly ARB bushes front and rear to improve the handling.

and a exhaust mod that has been proving popular on the S2K site, to get a bit more 'sound' from the exhaust. Loving it so far, no drone as well! The best mods are free!

The extra pipework lets some of the exhaust gas go straight through the box without being silenced.

And purchased a hardtop stand and protective cover to properly store the roof.

And just today I bled the brakes as I wan't 100% happy with the feel - better now.
And pollished the nipple that commonly forms on the clutch slave cylinder pin, making the clutch feel heavy.

After

A few pictures from when I am out enjoying it.
