that picture looks sweet. i could care less if we had variable gear steering. i just want the wheel cause it makes it look and probably feel to one of these below.




is that your S with the VGS wheel? the Rav4 in the background doesn't look like a japanese Rav because of the plates.
That is my wife's Rav4 and that is my S We live here in Florida, nothing here to JDM

[AP2-2NV] is right,
I machined the VGS spline into the USDM wheel it takes 4 hours to do that.

The only problum wit this is you lose the air bag:
and momo and sparco has a ton of wheels that have that look if that's what you want.

zbrewha863,
It is not sequential but, the closest you will come to one on top of an S2000 gear box. It is a 1/3 shorter than stock and the clutch peddle push is 45% shorter than stock. Between the two mods it is probably the fastest shifting S2000. I am not saying I am the fastest but, with a skilled driver this car could probably out shift any other street S2000.

Shorter gear lever doesn't mean faster shifing necessarily

i'd pay to have that done but who do i ask, pimp my ride in LA? i'd pay you if i lived in Florida. seriously though who do i ask and what should i look for? i'd want it to be all black and if they could i'd have them remove the leather and have them put on the soft suede they use on the F1 tillers at 7 to 10 and 2 to 4.

Of course you do. Otherwise we would start making snide comments about your intelligence. If you are driving it on the street, you'd be nuts to lose the air bag.

This is true. If you look at the shifter it is not lower than the OEM. The short through comes from the mechanics down below were you can't see
