I saw a pic of your S2K and I love the wheels and clear coners, where did you get them? Could you post the exact wheel type and size? What mods do you have? Also is your car a little lowered, looks like it. Nice Mods! Got a photopoint web site?

Spongy,

Do you REALLY want the mod list? Okay, I did a lot of work and spent 5 months on it, so here it goes:

Engine: (in order from intake to exhaust)

-Custom 3"aluminum dual-filtered cold-air intake(pipe insulation/Thermotec insulation)
-Forced Secondary Air injection removed... it was in the way of my custom intake! Duh!
-Comptech S/C
-ProFlow enlarged TB
-Extrude/Honed intake manifold
-Mugen Headers
-BYS straight pipe cat replacement
-Comptech exhaust
-Comptech Wire Cover
-Mugen ECU (not using it yet)
-Mugen radiatior cap/lower thermostat
-Jet-Hot ceramic coated Header heatshield/engine heatshield

Suspension:

-Spoon X-brace
-Mugen 31.5mm front sway bar
-Comptech STB
-Spoon rear lower aluminum brace
-Comptech Adj Coil-overs

Cosmetics:

-Clear corners from European-spec housings in US-spec housing (for aiming reasons)
-Clear side turn-signals
-Custom shaner-made aluminum honeycomb grill

Wheels/Tires:

-Work Meister S2R 18x8 18x9
-BF Goodrich G-force T/A KD 225/40 265/35
-Smart Tire

Electronics/Stereo:

-Alpine 8081 alarm (with radar sensor) that opens trunk, gas door, and hood from remote... that's the only way to open hood, so no breaking in, popping hood, and cutting power cable to disarm alarm!
-Alpine IVA C800 (in new hole)
-Alpine NVA 851 DVD navigation
-Alpine ERA G320 EQ/Listening position selector/Surround (in stereo door face)
-Alpine 6-disc changer in stock head unit location
-2 Alpine MRV 1507 amplifiers (in trunk now but going into the seats soon!)
-Dynaudio System 340 3-way component set
-Boston Pro LF 10 (not installed yet)
-Heads up display boost guage going in soon...

NEXT?!

-Voodoo shift knob (no brainer )
-Cross-drilled/coated discs (cosmetic vanity)
-Replacing all carpet with Wilton wool carpeting (beautiful stuff)
-Lining trunk with Wilton wool carpeting
-Reinstalling stereo with higher quality mindset (I want it to appear REALLY stock)... I have a new dashboard waiting to be cut!
-Finish sub box for Boston 10
-Get gel-cell low resistance battery
-Get Alumapro super capacitor
-Install Smartire in super stealth way
-Get hardwired adapter for dash controls from Soundgate when done (no offense Pinky, you rock!!!)

-Maybe Alpine F1 processor when it is released...

Any other suggestions folks?!

Shaner!!

My car is gorgeous!! Sorry, I'm so proud of her (and my tree shade mechanic skills!)Look:

Sorry, one more...


Please, give me comments!!

 

My God! Looks like you have more money in mods than you do in the car. Does look nice though. Any idea how much horse power it puts out?

 

I will get it dyno-ed as soon as there is a permanent MAP sensor resolution... I will dyno it with and without a fan blowing on my two grill vents to see if they actually do anything. There will be no "ram air effect" because the SC will only draw in a fixed volume of air/rpm... my intention was to supply it with as cold air as possible. <-- just something different.

As far as costs, I only have ~$25,000 into it so far. My original intended car purchase was an NSX or Viper (new) but my Fiancee said no... so I took the extra money and put it into mods.

Believe it or not, I originally intended to only modify the stereo and leave the rest of the car stock... mods are addicting!
