New s2k owner in need of help
Hi guys! I just recently purchased an s2000, I mean a crumbled beer can i should say lol. I always wanted an S but never had the means until now and i found this one on eBay and got a great deal on it. I took a big risk on the car buying it as is not knowing if it will start but with great risk comes great reward. I know this is going to be a lot of work to get this car to it back on the road but i willing to take on the task and with some help from the you guys it shouldn't be to bad. The previous owner put on a ridiculously ugly wide body kit which has to go with every other body piece. Also visible mods made to the car are 18" enkei rsv rims, cross drilled and slotted rotors, a full invidia exhaust with test pipe and header. Also the clutch has been upgraded. The first day i got it didn't even roll we had to push it on a jack with the help of an army to get it in the driveway. The first thing i did when I finally got the keys was a run to the local auto parts for a battery. i popped it in and turn the key and pushed the start button, she started with no hesitation 
The car was advertised with 100k miles the dash says 92289. The next thing i did was a compression test which the numbers turned out ot be from 240 psi to 250 psi across the board. Let me upload the pics i have so far and give me your 2 cents. Thanks guys

Hope this helps for uploading pics
To post photos, I use flickr and photobucket. I've found that flickr has better image quality.
I do not post photos from my phone, but straight from my computer. If you are using a phone to post pictures, someone else will be better off to help you. If I need to get a picture from my phone to my computer, I email it to myself, open up the email, and save it to the computer. Rather an annoying process, but I normally post pictures from my dslr camera.
Steps (flickr):
1) Click on the photo in flickr
2) Click on the arrow/share option.
3) Once you click on the arrow/share option, there will be a BB code that comes up, underneath the share feature, as well as the option to choose the size you want just above the link to the code. First click on the size you wish to use, and then copy the full link for the BB code.
4) Paste that full code onto here, and it should post the picture.
Photobucket:
1) Click on image
2) To the right of the photo, there should be four different codes under the "Links to share this photo" Click on the the one that says IMG, and it will copy the code.
3) Paste the code onto the page, and it should post the picture.
