Are you guys doing this to early?
There must be a few nice days left.
I don't stop driving mine until there is snow on the ground.
And I never completely retire the S for the winter. I will take it
out on snow and salt free days.

Mine is staying intact until the first snowfall. I'll drive it on sunny days, but once it snows it will be up on jackstand while I:
- Remove Tein SRC coilovers, clean and run them on shock dyno
- Explore spring rate/coilover options
- Flush brake fluid, perhaps add stainless steel brake lines
- Clean and protect interior
- Remove right rear suspension and track down source of clicking sound, I believe it's the outer CV
- Change oil, diff oil, transmission oil
- Treat all seals with Shin Etsu grease or whatever that stuff is called
- Find the radio code as I went all this year without the radio
- Clean and wax all wheels (4 sets!)
- Sell wheels I don't need
- Sell or install rear decklid spoiler
- Check valve clearances, inspect head and retainers
- Inspect all bushings/mounts for wear

While you suckas are all forced to simply look at and work on your main cars, I'll be happily driving mine around (
), yet hopefully with the following projects done / items installed, money depending:
Adjustable 22mm rear sway bar (understeer ==> oversteer!)
cold air intake
smaller & lighter S/C pulley, smaller pulley belt new spark plugs, new spark plug wires, ECU flash
Netbook / carPC wired to factory GPS / computer monitor
possible custom portable drive-in theater system
possible new racing stripes (decals, not paint)
proper custom in-car camera mount
engine oil change
transmission fluid change
brake fluid change
GET MOTORCYCLE RUNNING!!
Accomplished
Removed from list

The motorcycle has since taken priority over a lot of previously planned tasks.

Surely have some small changes coming soon as well. Over the "off-season" I'm hoping to accomplish the following:
Buy & install new springs (want to lower her 1.5 or so inches)
Install new OEM steering wheel
Have new windshield installed
Clay and polish entire car prior to spring
Cheers and G/L to everyone getting their s2k and other goals checked off throughout the Winter

My list was as long as Luders last winter haha. This year:
New tires in the rear. (265/255 Toyo Proxes T1R)
Possible drop the diff and inspect it, might try and find a set of stock gearing from a newer S2000 to put into mine...or just buy another diff)
Sell my springs for Espeilers..or how ever you spell it...
THAT'S IT

Race season is officially done and the weather doesn't look like it will be nice enough for some top down cruising.
