The difference is that it will be light enough that you'll want to remove your trunk springs or risk getting an uppercut when you open the trunk.

Didnt feel a single difference in the car.

that was a typcial dumbass honda civic owner comment.. tool. just because i have an s2000, im not allowed to have a cheaper car?


i didnt think it was a stupid question at all.. i can notice a pretty big difference in how hard the car pulls just by having a 150lb passanger.. a hell of alot mroe then i can in my "cavalier"
iv rode in a heads/cam mustang and a modded 300zx TT. the s2k gets tail happy just as easy as those high hp/tq cars. so im sorry if i was a bit concerned.

to everyone who actually answered my question, thanks
