Default My 03 S2k and mods/plans

Hello to you all!

First of all, thanks for a great community!
I have been lurking for some time now, and finally got myself an S2000 a month ago.

Great car, pics here:



And here:



The car is stock at the moment..

I have ordered an Amuse R1 Titan single exit exhaust from rmstuning.com
It will be delivered in a month or so.

I have also ordered a PRM Intake and Carbotech P+ pads for the front axle.
Intake delivery next week..


Oh, and Spoon Fixed damper kit..
This is sitting under my bed for a few months, I would like to track it before I do anything to the suspension.. I would like an idea of what I like and what I dont like about it first..

I have had some cool cars in the past as well. (Subaru WRX STi, Nissan Silvia, Audi URQuattro etc)

But the S is something special.. A great car, I cant wait to take it to the tracks!
It has the best handling I have felt in any stock car, and I have driven quite a few cars, both on the track and road.

But it is cold and snowy in Norway for another few months..

Btw:

Have anyone tried the Spoon Fixed dampers?
I guess that would be a decent upgrade together with some good springs. I would like to lower it 20mm or so.

The dampers themselves are stock height I guess?

Thanks man!

It didn't matter much to me when I bought the car, but now I am really glad I have it! The only issue is when to take it off? Hehe.

I love to drive open, but I also love the looks with the hardtop. hmmm

I saw the threads regarding when to remove it, so I guess I will remove it together with the winter tires.

Welcome to our a little S2000 family. Actually, it is not so little.

Anyway, if you want to drive your car on snow covered road, buy a set of Bridgestone lm22 or ws50.

I am driving on a set of lm22. It is awesome even on icy road!

Hi there! Thanks for your welcome, I really like this site..

Massive amounts of info (and off topic. hehe)

I drive my S every day on ice and snow..

For the time being I am using Dunlop Wintersports tires.

You know, we Norwegians have a lot of ice and snow tires to choose from, and use ice/snow tires for 4-5 months of the year.
