i already have a hardtop. perhaps i should mount the voltex on top of the stock one, like the older porsche racecars.

lol such a rich girl.. oem or mugen hardtop? i think the voltex spoiler is a little too much but its up to you. i would just keep the stock one and spend the money on other mods. go suspension =] looks like your s2k isnt lowered.

Don't see the point unless you are regularly tracking the car. Cop magnet.

if you actually track the car get the voltex wing, you can always take it off when you drive on the street. the voltex wing makes much more downforce than the cr wing. when you order the voltex wing get the high mounts as well. even though the a stock cr is more than adequate for the track, there are always improvements to be made

don't listen to these kids who say to take off the wing. they know nothing of track driving and what a huge difference a wing makes (especially in an s2k)

do you have any idea how good the stock cr suspension is? just because a car isnt low doesnt mean it doesnt have good suspension.

Really cause i used to track my car all the time at NASA events and Auto-x

Wing does make a difference but i guess thats the luxury of having two trunks one wingless and one with a wing...

Plus one on suspension.....

Get some of those Nitto's i think the NT01's am i correct guys??

I used those and Azenis 115's

yes i know. plus you actually lose handling from lowering your car too much. she never said anything earlier about tracking it so whoops.. it was just a looks factor i would of added in to drop it another inch or so.

you can always just take the wing off the stand.....

you tracked on 115s???


one thing i would say to upgrade on an s2k for tracking are the brake pads. i really dont like the feel of stock honda pads, plus if the track has a few heavy braking zones you'll probably fade them
