Wow.
Just out of interest, how much is this going to cost in total do you think?
Looks amazing, id love to have the knowledge that you have to allow you to do such a thing.

Sweet, like the blue rocker cover, S seats and even the stock keyring. Are you going to put a Montecarlo H badge on the back?
I assume the sides are stainless with a tear off plastic coating?
I am very interested in the build and approximate costs all in.
Mark - what's a hartop - sort your sig out!

The chassis is a luego, viento, its a wide bodied version. 4 pot willwoods drilled and grooved all round
The engine gear box and diff have had a full blueprint rebuild with spoon valve springs with ap2 retainers, ported and polised head, spoon cooling mods head gasket, thermostat ect, baffled sump.
we will be running jenvey throttle bodies with omex management if i remember correctly.
we're also using a Toda flywheel combined with standard Honda friction plate and an ACT pressure plate
Cams are planned for next year, as the finished car will have to meet the standard emmissons test for an S2000 as the car will be registered brand new.
we are building the car as a new build which mean the if you use one reconditioned part say in ourcase the engine and the build every thing else new. this allows you to register the car on a brand new reg ie KK08 SZK
Due to the quality of the build we estimate the final cost to be in the region of 20 -25K. altough many kits can be built for under 10K
westfield have produced a simalar kit with a normal body version and a standard s2000 engine producing 0-60 times of 2.9sec!!
our finished car should weight in between 550 - 650 kg and estimated to produce 270-280hp
