Actually that white car does have a wide body on it. The front fenders are +20 and the rears are +25mm.

I actually kinda like the silver one w/the roll cage and futuristic body kit...
Kinda looks like it might be a transformer.
More than meets the eyes......

and thats why you drive a 240 and not an s2000...... im not tryin to cut on you but i know damn well that if someone came up to you and said " i have a Kamanari kit for dirt cheap you want it?" you would jump all over it. i love the spoon kit and if i could honestly afford it i would do the entire spoon body like the above white S2000 lover did. the kit extends the lines of the car and pulls out the more agressive nature of the S2000 its self.... you cant crack on someone just cuz you dont like the kit.... you not liking something doesnt make it crap.... i could understand if you posted a pic of some poor shmuck in a saturn with cardboard hood scoops and a coffee can muffler thinkin he is cool, but deffinately not someone that made a fully functional track car that can still be driven on the street..... just go easy on these guys we all have our wants and dreams, he just got to live his is all...... sorry for the book

Exclamation

In your comment...I was actually looking for a S2000 with Buick flares like found by one of our own.
I like your S2000 cars. Though yes I will say, I am a Nismo boy through and through. But as done with both Honda and Nissan alike, the look of subtle simplistic with a nasty overbite was the original appeal of these 4 banging monsters designed to eat tires and take very little fuel to do so.

Yeah your right, mainly this post was a little bit of a sarcastic yet opinionated post. I love the Saturn schpeal and understand what your saying though.

Though I must say...the cardboard hood sounds intriguing. (that is 20lbs off my car!)

in any case. I wanted to just make a chuckle.
I go to art school where my major is part engineering and designing (started with my making small rec boats as a kid with wood and fiberglass)...part critical and functional, and well...we are kinda in the nature of picking apart things that make functional or non functional and overzealous.


(Photo Posted of a Similar CLC 18' Marine Composite Kayak)

I guess it comes from years of building show boats and going to shows and noticing, that the sleeper, the slim, sharp streamed yet quietly delicate but with a major bite of a boat was usually winner, because it wasn't something that you didn't notice until it zipped by you at 18 knots. The small boy with a much bigger mean bamboo stick. Much like our major millionaires who went to those Annapolis boat shows and bought our boats (or didn't)...modest...yet well, don't question their wisdom unless you really have something on them.
What i am saying, is the aggression come and goes, but if you really like to make your move, fool your enemy at the first turn till the last...then check mate. Don't give away victory when you can enjoy it. R35 GTR all the way. (once again opinion)

You can never go wrong with what has worked before. not saying change is not an inappropriate manor not to be conducted under the design of a automobile.

I always believed how you take care and design the car shows how you are as a person.
Whether it be outspoken, silent at first...then a bat out of hell, or just quite kinda guy. So many things can be said, understood, by every line you place in a picture, why cannot it be said about your body kits as well. agreed?


in any case, some of us really saw a star wars storm trooper walking out of this mean clump of numerously large conglomerate of manufactured automobile aftermarket parts.

others saw potential, individuality, and perseverance.

I saw...well i don't know really...but i saw a discussion arise with opinions, some highly aggressive others not so much and some non at all (feeling out this forum and who I want to race, what I expect of their final product project car and so on...)in every case thanks for your comment. no hard feelings.


I still think this car would look AWSOME with a Jado Bottle (Hydrogen Powered Rocket Motor) strapped to the rear of it. and a Road Runner Emblem placed on the front of it.
(You are now allowed to Apply smile to face)

Nope. I don't think so.
Each piece is made to work with each other.

When I see that, I see, years of labor placed in every part to reach maximum traction. It is not a show car, it is a car designed for one reason, performance, yet still stay true to the nature of the beast.

it isn't a Integra with a Porsche front (as I have seen before)

well there in lies the loss in comunication.... you say that the mugen kit is way over board simply because it is on a street car..... i say that you are biased and trying to cover your tracks.... im not attacking you just clearing my point..... the ASM kit that you comment on here is just as you say purpose built and ready for killer lap times as shown by its very extensive track records.... but if you look ate the spoon kit and realise the company that it comes from you would also realise that this body midification isnt just some cheap thrown together plastic that serves no purpose other than pissing off the eyes of the near by nissan/ datson lovers we all know and hang out with..... the spoon kit was built origionally for race teams looking to pick up some serious times, the spoon kit does about as much as it can to provide better handling, more down force, less drag.... but it also serves a creative streetable body that can easily deal with the rigors of a normal daily commute in a bumpy city..... i guarentee that if you take the ASM kit and put it on the street just one time you would never look at it the same.... there are reasons to everything wether it be looks, personality, functionality, or just plain spot light attention....... some companys have this ideal in mind and know where they can reasonably go with aerodynamic functionality melded with streetability... they also know that there are far more people out there in the world that drive their race car on the road, there street car on the race track.... and still love racing and competeing just as much as the big guys that have sponsor after sponsor to build them a race car so that they dont have to drive a (DUAL PURPOSE) car for both track and street..... but either way ill quit ranting.... i understand your point and i hope you understand mine... either way you are right people do dumb shit all the time and i dont think that it will change anytime soon lol.......



P.S. MERRY FREAKIN CHRISTMAS TO ALL YOU NUT JOBS OUT THERE LIKE ME THAT LOVE THE WILD AND STILL DRIVEABLE LOL.......

Are you serious, Paul? No one said anything derogatory about the owner of said car. I think that your very broad and rash comment has no relevance to the conversation. We are debating the body kit, not the person. Everything said above your post was opinion only.

I am not so vain to think that everyone likes my car. I like it. That's all that matters.

No one said that the kit was crap. Not sure what you are talking about there. I am really confused by this rant.

well by now i can feel the heat commin down on me but im just tryin to say that the guy didnt go overboard..... he did exactly what he intended to do with his car. just like you have done with yours james... he made his car suit his personality while also creating something more functional at the same time.... when MilleniumFalcon240 said that he went overboard with his build its purely subjective and i think that its a little rash on his part. if he would have said hey i just dont like this kit it would have been completely different in circumstance. but hey you and millenium are very right in your own possition.....oppinions are oppinions..
