Background.
Drove car stock for 3 years till I felt I maxed out. Just purchased eibach r2 evasive spec and installed. I also put on the non stag as well and I feel the learning curve is too much for so many new things. Currently I am 5 seconds slower than my stock times as I am cautious of the rear

Should go back to staggered and drive it?

I think the new plan should be
Stick with staggered
Add rear wing
Add cr front
Added non stag wheels

I would get a larger, adjustable front sway.

I am slowly getting faster but was wondering if there was a better route to go

Keep the non-stagger, add GTC-200 wing, stay on stock OEM springs/shocks.

I did this and shaved my laptime at one track from 1:32.xxx to 1:29.1xx (SOWS CCW).

I added a CR-front sway to the mix ($85 new from majestic honda).

Keep the non-stagger. If you add the CR front sway, wing, and go back to staggered, the car will be super pushy.


I tracked my S2k completely stock for 2 years (other than hardrace camber adjusters). I recently did 17x9/255 square, GTC200 wing, and CR front sway (still on OEM springs/shocks). The car feels perfect. it's a bit looser, but perfect. What I thought was neutral handling (stock) was actually understeering, and very skitish in higher speed stuff.
