Did you see what coilovers the s2000 racecars were using? Spring rates are probably around 20 kg/mm because of the tires they're using.

I think they have used and tested other coilovers besides the showas... just want to see what they are using now.

It looked like it was FRP to me when I did see it and what my friend told me when he was there last year. Don't know if the real thing will be a CF or FRP? Should have tracked Ichi down and harrased him.
That will be in dry carbon.

that hardtop is nice on a racecar, but for a street driven s2000 it might not be worth it...

Yet much like the Amuse Widebody, I'd bet the the first to be in the US will never see a race track.

Honestly who cares. Its just another hardtop. Its not like its going to add hp/tq. Aerodynamics yes but thats about it if that. Again for the 10,000 time adding parts (any type of part) to the S2000 doesnt mean you have to track your car or let it sit in the garage. People need to get that through their thick skulls. Some will never learn. If my neighbor bought this top I wouldnt expect him to be at the track every weekend and if he didnt want to go at all I wouldnt look down upon him like some kids on this site would do. Thats weak IMO. People are going to do what they want to do. Who cares if a handful of track junkies on this site demand him to track his car. Who the hell are they?

BTW good moring. Its 7am and I havent had my coffee to wake up yet.
