Winter plans for your S2K
#11
So far have installed an izzie air pump delete, Blox front bumpsteer kit, Clear/JDM AP1 headlight diffusers, Bride Zeta 2 / buddy club rail, Panavise iphone mount, and a hardwired dash cam.
I also have a whiteline front sway bar, Blox rear diff collars, energy suspension rear swaybar bushings, PW:JDM CF cooling plate, Apexi VAFC2 and Goodridge stainless brake lines waiting to go in when I have the time.

I actually created a spreadsheet so I wouldn't lose track of parts hiding in boxes that I haven't installed and parts I'm waiting on. It's currently 64 line items long (most are just minor things). But there's only a few things I can actually do over the winter though given that I live in a condo. I'll swap out my K&N for the J's intake. Should be able to install the brake ducts and get the J's bumper on. I've got a J's header and a Amuse rep hardtop on order so should be able to install those when I get them. I can probably drill out the holes for the harnesses. I'm going to put a heat shield on the CFRP hood and wrap the header. And I'll pull out all the panels to install the rollbar in the spring. Everything else will wait until spring or later.

My son had no interest in cars for his first 15 years and wanted nothing to do with them. This week he insisted on helping me change the oil, diff fluid, and tranny fluid. We got the car on jackstands and we need to flush the brake fluid and do a yearly brake service as well. He has a fondness for EK hatches all of a sudden too 13-15 years can be a very strange age for boys, nothing I can relate to.
