Now on to the photos...









And drive height...

YOU'RE CAR IS DOPE BECAUSE YOU THINK IT IS. Don't listen to the negative comments OP, the beauty of the car world is INDIVIDUALISM and expression of style. Its whatever you want to buy with your hard earned money for YOUR car.

Granted, I wouldn't get air on my s2000 but I'm curious as to how it rides. Which kit did you go with?

I don't care for the car, but Function will always be better than form.

Not everybody wants their car to look like a paraplegic, and not everybody cares about "Stance" or "hellaflush".

If I'm ever in the UK, I'll PM you because I always wanted to use TE37's as can openers.

Because it looks absurd and probably drives equally as absurd. It's goes against the entire concept and heritage of the S2000. It also seems immature.

Yes, I know what I just said is partially subjective, but not all of it.

As far as RWB Porsches, not really sure or that interested. I don't recall them having excessive negative camber though.

It wouldn't have mattered what I had put in the title of this thread, the comments would have likely been the same. I genuinely didn't think that the title would come off as smug. Far from it.

Anyway, I'm not bothered in the slightest what others think. Some will love it, others hate it. I just shared the photos for those who are into stance. Sure it won't be for the majority on here and that's cool. But I like it and that is all that matters to me. I did it for looks, at drive heights it is all perfectly functional and I can still have a load of fun.

Is it going to be setting lap records if taken to the track. Absolutely not. Will it be as quick as track spec cars, no. But for what I use it for everyday it is absolutely great.

So why the forged wheels, wing, splitter? Well why not, I like them and that's the only reason I need.

Every one is entitled to their own opinion and I appreciate that. I love a lot of different setups, not just stance, but just because I wouldn't do it, doesn't take away from why someone else would.

Thanks man. Went with airrex struts and airlift 3p management. At drive height it feels just like it did on MeisterR Zeta R coilovers. For every day use it feels no different and has made my car so much more practical. Best mod I've done.

And he quotes himself with photos attached. The biggest crime in this thread.
