I like the front and front fenders, but the rear is... way too radical for me.

not very interested in it, i think the Amuse wide body is KING compared to this one. Looks extremely radical...the Amuse wide body looks extremely nice. The rear looks too blocky though it probably does have alot of functionality to it

Like I said before... Although I'm sure it's quite functional, I don't see it looking anything less than overkill on the street (IMO).

Another Amuse lover .

I agree that the Amuse GT1 is a great kit. IMHO it is the most functional street kit available for the S2000 that is still able to provide track-car aero benefit.

Thanks for the Amuse support

This J's kit is a whole other animal. It is more JGTC inspired instead of GT1 inspired. Similar to ASM, this kit lowers the center of gravity and provides more downforce for tighter turns, but also increases drag which can hinder acceleration. In the end, both are great kits. It just depends on what you are looking for.

I do feel confident in saying that the J's Racing kit will not be as common as the Amuse GT1 so whoever owns one will be one of the few.

oh man what is there not to love about Amuse? Amuse is amazing and their quality is top notch! i love my Amuse R1 Titan! someday i want to get the wide body! but yes Amuse is KING to me compared to this wide body kit.It looks too radical, i can see people using this kit if they track their car constantly but i think Amuse with their wide body kit made the kit streetable with some track day emphasis if you wanted to go to the track!

AMUSE FTW!!

I'm not a fan of this kit at all, but if someone put it on a dedicated track car I would give them crazy props.
