No wonder you are revered on the Toronto forum. Not revered as much as DoGMaN, but who is?

I had no idea you had performed such a vast array of mods. My hats off to you.

Xviper, can you find decent used "old school" minis up there? I would want a real Cooper S 1275 without Hydrolastic suspension.

xvip--Your S looks great! The Z4s look like they have cancer.
Hydrolastic suspension? I'll bet that's engineer-speak for "rubber bands".

You can count me as a Vintage Modder.

Although I cannot even come close to Xviper, I clearly have something more than a stock S2000. And yet, my goal is to keep this car as close to looking stock as I can.

My mods to date
Triple-H rollbar
JR air filter
Muz snorkel air intake
Neuspeed x-brace
Neuspeed shock tower brace
Triple-H front brake air flow kit
Voodoo Magnum polished aluminum shift knob
Modifry red-line warning beeeper
Modifry glove box organizer
Can't remember who's headrest air blockers
Triple-H lowered seat modded mod
Triple-H mud flaps
Triple-H customized OEM 16" wheels, black & silver
RM Racing chin spoiler
Coastal Metals splitter
Coastal Metals grille insert
Honda black chrome kit
Triple-H beverage holder
Groit's Garge Heat Paint for silver calipers
Honda '04 Front brake pads for street
Cobalt Spec VR and Spec VX brake pads for track
Stainless Steel brand racing brake fluid, used in clutch also
Toyo RA-1 competition tires on OEM 16" wheels
Triple-H customized OEM 16" wheels, grey
Honda hardtop

Still to come
Supersprint exhaust
Trailer to put S onto
Racing/Sport seats with low sliders
5-6 point harness
Stiffer suspension
Another hood/front clip repaint

No longer have
Voodoo plain shift knob- too small
Spoon x-brace- stupid design
