Ok the Greddy SE Dual exhaust has broken in, but I think its abit too loud when going around the neighborhood and theres some drone at 3~4k rpm....

I felt the increase in power and faster revs, especially high rpm shift at highway speed is absolutely amazing.

but yet Im thinking to revert it back to stock exhaust for less attention.



Been thinking about the next mods...
  1. AP1/CR steering rack
  2. CR Steering Rack Stiffeners
  3. SOS Sport Clutch
  4. Volk Racing Rays CE28n Front 17x7.5 +43 / Rear 17x10 +45 (or 17x9 +63) in Gold (or Mercury Silver) with flat center caps
  5. Honda Accord Euro R CL7 OEM Front Brakes
  6. Works Bell Boss Steering Hub
  7. Personal Neo Grinta 350mm Black Leather / Red Stitch
  8. FD2 Shift Knob

Trying to stick with everything CR to see what is like, yes seems like after some practice 225 up front is the way to go next...

Finally got my Works Bell Boss Steering Hub and Personal Neo Grinta 350mm Black Leather / Red Stitch installed.
I had to sand and cut 1.5 ring off the sleeve from the Works Bell Boss Steering Hub to fit... and jammed the resister pin into the back of the SRS yellow plug.

and with numerous hub adjustment I finally got it right.

Now I can say everyone should change to an aftermarket steering wheel on their s2000, it really transform the feel of the car!
