The S2K International Marketplace announces another item in our expanding line of exclusive products for the S2000.

We now have S2000 rear anti-bumpsteer kits from The Go Fast Lab for sale! This custom S2000 rear control arm replacement solves two of the most common ailments of the S2000 rear suspension: It reduces and nearly eliminates potentially dangerous bumpsteer in cars lowered up to 1.5 inches. It also allows independent adjustment of rear toe and camber which was never possible before. Manufactured to our specifications using Aurora suspension grade rod ends, 304 Stainless Steel and Honda OEM bushings. A race-only version is also available that uses a pillowball mount instead of rubber bushings.

This is what some of us have been waiting for a while.

Not to jack this thread but didn't King Motorsports offer an anti-bumpsteer kit for the front?

 

Yes, King used to advertise some sort of front kit that involved sending them your steering rack among other things. They no longer show it on their site and I have no clue what the status of it might be.

Our street pieces are in stock and ready to ship, the race pieces (pillowball mounts) are built to order and are shipped within a week of ordering.

 

Curious, are the street kits suitable to use for once-a-month hard autocross-type driving? How would they hold up if aftermarket suspension is used along with R compound tires?

2nd question is, since these kits are designed to virtually eliminate toe changes in the rear, would it be possible to run less toe-in in the back for autocross use (since having more neutral toe increases fuel mileage)... yes, the gas prices here are getting a little stupid lately.

Last question: Have these been tested for their effectiveness/reliability in occasional competetive use? (referring to the street kits)

TIA.

Yes, the street kits are meant for the casual auto-crosser or track fiend that still wants or needs the compliance of the rubber bushings. They will hold up just fine to the type of use you describe and indeed that was their design intent. The race pieces are really meant for cars that are just that, race cars on trailers that desire the least amount of deflection and aren't concerned with comfort or the transmission of additional forces to the chassis.

#2: Yes, you can run as much or as little toe as you want and still run the amount of negative camber you desire in the rear. One is no longer tied to the other and you can indeed run less toe if you feel that suits your needs.

The street pieces have been extensively tested on the track with a full-blown racecar running slicks over multiple days. We believe they will hold up just fine for the usage you described (and then some).

 

Thanks Ludedude!

 

DAMN! thats a bit pricey but man do I want. You got any pics of it from the rear of the car? hehe looks like it could add some street bling if you polish those things up.

 

The control arm is in front of the lower a-arm so it wouldn't really be very visible from the rear.

They only come in black. You could get them painted or powder coated if thats important to you.

Pricey? Have you seen any alternatives for less?

I couldn't tell you about street bling but they do look nice

 

I do a dozen DE events a year. However, I've only done 5 events with my s2k as she was only recently purchased used. It is a MY 01. I have just ordered the MY 04 front and rear springs and the rear bar in order to change the balance to a bit more understeer. I am very interested in your new control arm product and have a few questions:

1. Just how does this arm accomplish the claims made for it? I think we need more than a one paragraph explanation.

2. Grassroots Motorsports reports that Honda has a new part number for the rear knuckle and the rear upper A arm, the purpose of the new pieces being to lessen the amount of change in the rear toe as a result of rear wheel travel. Is your product in fact doing the same thing but in a different way (and at a lower price)?

I am trying to understand all the factors that will enable me to decide which products to buy.

Thanks, Cal Cloutier
