Default New guy here!

Hey guys, new member, been lurking for a couple days. My S2000 fire was re-kindled the other day by some unknown means and I've been itching ever since. I've driven one, a Silverstone AP1, for work a couple years ago when I was detailing, and I've loved them ever since. I'm 18 and I currently own a '98 Camaro, come the spring it needs some body work and it will be going up for sale (again) in favor of my own S2000. By my nature it won't stay stock long, I'm a self-proclaimed handling whore and ex kart racer, so the suspension will be targeted first, along with the intake and exhaust.

Looking forward to my stay, and hopefully in a few months I'll be able to post pictures of my new car!

s2k's handle well right out of the box. Althought opinions vary widely on this site, you'll probably need to go straight to full coilovers to really make a difference. Intake and exhaust are also subject of great debate but many have taken the time to do dynos so HP gains can be measured and compared. Check out the 'normally aspirated' subforum for several comprehensive threads on the most popular mods. Good luck, lots of expertise around here but you can spend big $$ chasing scant improvements in speed and handling.

Oh, and welcome.
