Default How to make S2000 HIGHER

Hi guys,

what's the right way to make S2000 higher then stock? Say +15 mm in the rear and +10 in the front? I know it may sound stupid but there are no roads here, only directions With my GT-R I've been putting spacers between coilovers and chassis, would the same work for S2000 as well?

Thanks!

Anton

There is no simple way. A whole new top hat with a longer spacer? The length of the shock is the limiting factor. So a ground control replacement spring with a longer and stiffer coil is the only way I can think to do it cheaply

Google is silent Any ideas where to look?

For now I'll be installing +10 mm spacers over the coilover mount.

i am sure there are coil cover kits which will allow you to thread up higher than the stock position. Good luck getting an alignment though.
