Just as a heads up, for those of you who have the OEM hardtop and are planning to get the Ballade roll bar, you will need to bend the hardtop side latches. The latches will hit the bar in its original configuration and you wont be able to secure the hardtop into the catchers completely. You will need to bend it close to a 90 degree angle. Here is what mine looks like now. By bending it this way, I'm able to completely secure the hardtop down. It does rub against the plastic panel, but its no biggie. Hope this helps.

1st and foremost: PHOTOBUCKET IS OFFICIALY LAME

Hey everyone. Been gone for a bit (busy with work). Had the S2k in storage past 3 months and finally back in it. Just an update, I installed an Ap2 oem ecu with immobilizer and ignition. Ever since I had the f22c swapped in, been always nervous to not over-rev and grenade the motor. So I finally got around to fixing that issue. Car feels good, idles like it should. Planning to do a steering wheel upgrade soon..

I decided to take out the Sparco Evo II's. They've become a pain in the a** to drive around in. As soon as I reinstalled the OEM seats, it felt like heaven! So comfortable! lol. Anywho, here's some pics of it as of today

Ordered Works Bell hub, quick release and personal 330mm steering wheel. Decided to go with this size b/c need that extra leg room to heel/toe. Gatta say, Works Bell products are very high quality. Feels very solid. The steering wheel has a much better grip than my worn out ap1 wheel. Overall, pretty satisfied with the products.

Nice update. I have the same size/ type wheel but in suede. I was thinking about going to leather. Tired of having a wheel that wears out.

Building my S closer and closer to a perfect machine, one order at a time. Ordered a genuine Honda S2000 CR rear sway bar. High speed cornering should be a little less scary on the Ap1 platform
