2002 s2000
60k miles

spoon lower front x-brace
spoon lower rear frame brace
tein s-tech
ap2 wheels



just got this car about 2 weeks ago. what do you guys think? slowly trying to mod the car but being a poor college student kinda restricts the amount of mods i can buy lol.

thinking about getting an exhaust soon, what do you guys think?

Congratulations, you are so lucky to live somewhere you can have a s2k for a daily driver. I plan on buying one after I pay off my DD.

What do I think? I think it is uterly beautiful. Me? I'm probably getting black or white.

Cleannnn... I'm not/wasn't ever too crazy about the S2K's, but I really wouldn't mind owning one, and they sure look good. Congratulations on your purchase =)

boo stock shock ftl. save up and get some suspension worthy of the s2000 ie not some cheap tein flex or similar coilovers.

double adjustable koni yellow coilovers custom valved to whatever spring rate you want, zeals makes some decent stuff, amuse and j's are good, kw, moton is best but thats more for someone who goes to the track often

Heh...I didn't mean it in that way. S2K is a very fun car to drive around but in my case I drive about 100~150 miles a day average and those long drives make the car uncomfortable. Thats why I bought the si sedan...
