Hello!

My names Bryan and i recently just got my first s2000. its a 2003 sazuka blue ap1 with ap2 front. Lowered on fortune 500 coilovers and on Work Cr-kai's powder coated white with axle spacers. Other then that, it has a carbon fiber radiator diffuser and stock motor.








its not my first honda however. back in highschool i had a 97' ej8 with a gsr motor, real SiR bumpers, raybrig fogs, ctr headlights and gsr interior, and work equip 03 knockoffs



i later traded that for a gold 92' lexus sc300 with a 1jzgte auto



then i wrecked the gold car due to bald rear tires, wet asphault and a suburban trying to run me off the road coming head on (drunk driver i believe)



insurance helped me pay for a 95' black 5spd shell where i put a single turbo on the motor and went with a mildly built soarer r154 5spd. i rebuilt the motor and installed a map-ecu which is essentially hondata for the eas-ability to tune it. with bigger injectors act stage 3 6puck on 15psi it made 390whp on race gas.








then i sold the sc300 for a huge profit and on my way home from selling the car i picked up my first s2000. so far i love it! im used to handling my 4k lb sled around turns but this thing just whips right through them. its not as fast unforutnently but i have plans for a inlinepro kit next summer. until then im going to get a set of cams and possibly do a custom exhaust. however its kinda nice having a really quiet car for a change. i can actually hear myself think.

the reason why i sold the sc300 is more complicated however. im about to start school.. again. and the sc's clutch was to much of a pain for stop and go traffic of the city where my school is. which sucks about the s2 is that its going to have to get raised up a inch or two :/
