Hey Matt...
Hey Matt,
I'm not usually a fan of wings on the S, but your new CF one looks great, matches the lines of the trunk really well!
Just thought I'd mention it.
Rick
Was your car always lowered, or did you just do that recently? What setup? Looks good with the Volks!

Hey thanks Rick.
Yeah I'm heavily into the tuning stage right now, especially thanks to summertime and no school to slow me down.
It's only been lowered a month. I bought the Megan Racing Street Series Coilovers with a 12 and 14 kg spring rate and brought em down to about an inch and inch and a half from the fenders.
I bought the Seibon MG style CF wing cuz I wanted something more aggressive than OEM but not as emphatical as J's Racing, or as expensive, but it definitely keeps the 255 rubber nicely planted when I make the high speed bends. Functionality with Cosmetical beauty, hard to come by.
Also tinited the windows to 15% about a month a half ago and I'll fix the rear window tear once it starts getting cold again (I ride top down everywhere anyway)
I have been debating for a long time what I'm going to do with the wheels and as of this morning I've decided to place them for sale. I've loved the look and feel of the Volks, but I have to get something different with the new appearance I'll be going for. I'm going to post em on here and RSW a little later tonight after the "topes" game. I already have new wheels and tires picked out (heh, for now - prob change my mind again). I can tell you that you'll be seeing some more big appearance changes over the upcoming months
btw, I met a new S2000 owner at Discount Tire on the westside. His name's Paul and he just picked up an '01 last Tuesday. Supposedly he'll be throwin a 75-shot right into it.. which kinda makes me frown.
Oh, and I found the fastest street legal S2K that I've ever heard of last night from Long Beach - over 530 rwhp, and even I believe it. Goes by the name "Sideways" on www.S2Kca.com He's got an in car video of one of his launches -SICK!
