all fitted.

I have only had it 2 weeks so I have been busy.
It looks like this is now the s660 profile thread so I'll update it with what's been done so far.


However absolutely loving it.
Some headlines.

-Super fast steering rack
-Ace sounding engine even though it's 660cc. Because it's in the middle it's growls from the frequencies you hear.
-Its solid, both in terms of build quality and road holding even in standard ad08r tyres. Winter tyres going on next week.
-55mpg
- Just look at it. It's all small, gay and unicorney. So fancy.

It's so awesome and gay at the same time...It makes me confused, yet I like it, did I say that it was aawesome? Does it come with an asian blow up doll for the passengers seat ?
On a serious more serious note, why aren't the Ad0r's good? Too cold?

They are good. They are excellent but on my Prelude they were useless below 7 degrees. Wheel spun everywhere even just daily driving, I actually got rid and moved to Michelin pilot sport 4 on that.

On the s660 with the lighter weight and traction control and vsa the ad08r are better in the cold, I think they are a specific compound for the s660, you can't buy them over here or on Europe. I actually imported a spare set but I'm not taking any risks especially being a mid engined rear wheel drive car, anyway had the back end wiggle out, I did provoke it.
Plus winter tyres are so much better and enjoyable to drive on compared to summer tyres in cold conditions, they just work from cold, pretty amazing.

These Work Cr kiwami wheels will be my winter wheels and I'll get the new improved Spoon sw388 with the summer ad08r around March.

I'm not going to be a fanny and take the car off road for winter. Where's they enjoyment in that? I'll be using the T6, s660 & Prelude all winter, with regular washes. Both Hondas are fully undersealed and ready.

Good to know! We rarely see such cold temps over here so I had never heard of the Ad0r responding "poorly". It makes a lot of sense though. Make sure you store the spare set out of the cold and damp or they will go off before you get to use them!

Wifish has her D&G shoes stored in the house. I have my Yokohama shoes stored in the house. Win win. She's doesn't see it that way.
