i work for a toyota dealership with a NFR S2000 lol

mines an 06 and yours 07

 

LOL when I was shopping for a S2K the local honda dealer had one It was a demo but the boss drove it as his personal car.

This was back in July of this year. It was a 2005 S2000 with 10000 KM on it. I drove it and remarked at how stiff it was and the sales rep said it had sport suspension. Well they wanted too much for an almost 3 year old car so I didn't buy it.

A couple days later I was back at honda to get a part and boss told me he took the car for a rip the next day and it was making a noise so he had it checked and the spacers were still in there and had to be removed after almost 3 years. Lazy dealerships lol

 

 

At first glance I thought the same too!

 

i thought it was a grenade...

 

What the hell am I looking at?

 

OP's 2nd picture, the one wrapping around his springs

 

I bought my car used over a year ago and decided to check one day. Found them in the right front tire 50,000 miles later.

 

I mean what is it?

 

If you read the replies, its in there. Spring Spacer. Honda puts it in during delivery of the car, it makes the car really stiff for shipping purposes. Dealers are supposed to remove it.
