[QUOTE=karwath,May 20 2007, 05:45 PM]I decided for the 3 piece spoiler because I thought a wing would be "too much" for my car.

I should have my Mugen SS bumper this week. Any suggestions on painting it?

It looks like most paint the grill area black, and some paint the intake duct black.

Next time I'll be up there is on the 22nd heading to Naples for a floridacarclub meet.
If you're free somewhere around that time (or on the 23) we could get together for something

lol i would imagine....as it is now in my near stock s2k im grinning at the track.....
Track instructors who have driven my car can't believe that it behaves like a different car altogether. With all the right Mugen parts, the suspension set-up is absolutely perfect. You don't need to go JDM-crazy unless you're competing where hundredths of seconds count.

That car is raced in the Formula 3 series in Europe and Japan.

This particular car was raced by Ralf Schumacher in the mid-90's and has been in German f3, British f3, British ARP f3, and Formula Libre.

As for any American series, I don't know what it could qualify in.

See "My Mugen Prelude'D car is faster than your JDM s2k" thread for details.

Speaking for the Mugen sway bars, what would be more beneficial for road/autocross use on the rear sway bar, going with the 25.4 mm width or 30 mm width?

My gut tells me to go with the 25.4 mm to prevent the tail of the car from swinging out as far but I can't back that up with seat time in an S2k. Maybe one of you guys can help?

Thanks.
