The ultimate wide-body kit would be the Amuse GT1 bodykit, available as special order from www.bulletproofautomotive.com, contact jerry at jerry@bulletproofautomotive.com. It aint cheap but it looks good and you can run 10" wheels at the back to get the power down from the 2JZ!

Pictures are easy to put up, but because you're a guest I don't think you can add any. However, you can add your website into the text and direct us to your machine!

Hey Welcome to the forums man. That is a sick swap no doubt but I have a few questions for you if you don't mind. Why a 2JZ? They are very heavy motors for the little S2000. Why not Build an F20C and keep the overall balance of the car? Or How about a SR20DET Swap? Maybe RB26 next? They are a bit lighter and you can get great power from them.

You would only need a widebody if you plan on running some crazy offsets in back. There are members here who are running 10" wheels wirh stock bodywork. Most look pretty wild unless you mold them, but that may be the look you are going after... Amuse is nice.

another vote for the amuse widebody. Def. the best widebody for the S right now although i believe u might be able to go wider than 10" in the back w/ that kit. I've seen some people on the boards go as wide as 10.5 i believe w/o the widebody. And good job on the swap man. my only concern is the handling... could u give us a before and after impression??

Did you guys put up a video of this thing on street-fire?
http://videos.streetfire.net/search/s2000/...87d000128f8.htm

I was actually surprised to see how well it fit in there. I think it's awesome... keep it up.
