S2000, 15 years later

 I've spent the past 2 months slowly piecing the s2000 together. The car finally came back from the paint shop and Formula S. It's been fun putting this together and hunting for all the little parts but I'm still not done with this car yet. Every part has a purpose and a reason on why it's included. After bringing the car back and really looking at it, the car brings back so much memories from late 00s and early 2010s. It doesn't really stand out as a car that was built recently other than the Advan TC4 that are on it. Other than that, the S2 has been fun to drive and feels way quicker in the turn than anything I've had in the last few years. I have some road trips and track days coming up soon and hopefully will have more to post then!

Summer Thoughts and Updates

I've been lacking it this summer to be honest. I feel like so much has happened so far from setting up the warehouse to going to Europe for workcation but this summer still feels incomplete and I have an idea why. Lately, I've been really playing with my cars as a form of outlet regardless if it's stressful or not. Whether if it was bad or good, it was always somewhat relaxing but I'm starting to see this mentality change. Earlier this month, I picked up my R33 from ABS Autobody and had a few mods I've been trying to install. First thing I had get done was install Ohlins, Ikeya arms and SPL arms. Shortly after that, I put on the CE28 from my old R32 and yeah, everything decided to fail. First thing that went was the fuel pump control module then the bursted line and lastly, the alternator. I threw on a Link ecu from Matt to do the lazy way of checking all the vitals and realized that after we checked the fuel pump, we threw it back in and probably cracked the line s...

S2000 Summer Pt1

Man, it's been a good minute since I've updated this shit but I finally have time to sit down for a few and take my mind of things to reflect back.

Most importantly, the Regamasters and Renegade CF wing stands are finally on so the car, from the outside, looks about how I imagined it to look. Since this was mainly to be used as a track car, I added a splitter up front and Arvou tow hook to help. These were the few other exterior bits that were added but they're more for function than make the car look more aesthetically pleasing.  As for the suspension, Ikeya arms were added up front to help with camber and clearing the front fenders. I also switched out ...
