Default Just lowered my S2000 the other day...

I got the Espelir springs from evasivemotorsports.com and they're awesome. The ride is still stiff as hell comparable to OEM S2000 springs and the drop is cool. 1.3" all around, I gotta learn how to strategically enter and exit driveways now!

Yeah, it took me about 3-4 hours to do with no power tools. I was taking my time and enjoying myself!

Espelir Active Super Down springs for s2000
Front 5.3 kg/mm - 313.60lbs
Rear 7.0 kg/mm - 392.00lbs

I think the 2004's are not as stiff as previous years from what I read on s2ki.com.
