Default Goodbye to 4X4 status!



I finally stopped delaying the inevitable and lowered my '01 SSM. I went with Espelirs on stock shocks and struts for now....coilovers to come some other time. The extra cash I would have spent on those was placed in a new fund I have started, called "NSX Fund" . When I take ownership of one of those, I will then focus on making my S2000 more track ready. For now, I had a little impromtu shoot tonight, but I have to preface the pics by saying that I am not even close to satisfied with the pics that did come out decent, the angles do not accurately depict the difference between stock and not-stock. It looks a ton better in person, and I will get better shots up when I have more time to do an extensive photoshoot and experiment with the angles more.

FYI - I love the drop. Not only does it look absolutely fantastic, but the car feels much more planted while the ride quality is 100% identical to stock. That said however, it would be fair to note my new alignment specs...0 toe front and rear, -1.4 camber in the front, -2.5 in the rear . I can't wait to put a much stickier tire on and see how she grips...

Comments/questions/negative feedback...whatever you got...

Before...












After...


















At AutoX...





I was messing around, thought this was cool....




Off topic - my home away from home...




Again....the pics don't do the drop justice. It looks flippin' amazing.

AND HUGE THANKS TO DAVE!! Could not have done the install without ya, even though it was cake....
