Looks amazing. Just need to do something about that front plate. I don't know if it looks extra bad because of the blacking out but it's all I can see now that I've noticed it. Have you tried putting it down below in the grill with some zip ties?

There are different import laws over here that have allowed some people to import a small number of S2000s but I have nfi what the details are so I wont try and explain it.

I notice that the headlight washers are missing also so even though you can get rid of them I'd say it's definitely a JDM

boszyen, Nice ride.
Am I typing with an accent?

Hi guys, thank you for your opinions.

Speedxracer : "Nice but you need some aftermarket lugs for those aftermarket wheels." Are they lighter, looks better, or? Please tell me.

Yup, I want to get a lip soon, but I dont know where to get them here (in Melbourne Australia). I dont want to pay $700 to the dealer. Maybe around 300

That's the japanese GPS system, but it doesn't work here. Well it does work but it's not usable in Australia.

Yes, it's a real Type V (VGS), I took the badge off before somebody else does and put a dent there. Did you notice that I also took off the S2000 badges at the fenders. I like the clean look

Driving impression is... well, the steering is really sensitive and FUN. I could not drive a normal car after driving this car. Well I still drive my brother's MX5 sometimes but I found it so harddddddddd to parkkkkk that car now. I have to turn the wheel so much, unlike my car I can just use one hand only.
I have not really driven a normal S2K before (I did for 10 mins) so I cant give a comparison on how they handle.
But, the first time I played go-kart, it felt just like my S2K, I was surprised LOL. The way they handle is so similar, and the responsiveness of the steering is basically the same, but the S2K has a lot more power which enable it to power-oversteer easily.

No, we do not get VGS in Australia, this is an import.
