Default I2ice's build thread.

I've had my s2000 for almost a year now and just wanted to share some of the progress so far.

my old db8


When i first bought it..work emotions xd-9 some tein springs and a front splitter, with the naked corner headlamps.


engine bay shot


bought some function and form type 2 coilovers, and some clear sidemarkers



ap2 radio door, civic type r shift knob.


sold the works, bought some ap2v1's and went a little lower


ricks clear headlight diffusers


bought some bbs lm's 18x9/10 +42 +50, red center caps, project kic lugnuts


got the wheels reverse mounted, faces repainted in a metallic silver and the lips repolished
18x9 +28 18x10 +35 is the new offset after reverese mount.


test fitting






my driver side fender is FCUKED up because someone hit-run'd me


redoing the rear suspension
-Rollcenter adjusters
-toe arms/anti bumpsteer
-extended top hats for rear coilovers
-axle spacers




while the front had another 2" + to go without touching the preload I had to drop the preload in the rear a good 1"+ to get the height i wanted, so I put some extended top hats on for a one off function form coilover.





my megan racing bsk


axles spacers


roll center adjusters pressed into the knuckles


my new driverside fender and some spc adjustable balljoints



more to come!

thanks for the comments, the works weren't the look i was going for, and i've wanted LM's on any car for as long as i liked cars so it worked out for me. The fitment looks great but rubs like a mother, maxed out the stock camber, and im going to get some adjustable balljoints just need maybe .5 or so more negative camber to get this drivable.
