$17K for year 2000, 44K miles, perfect maintenance /w records, not one single ding on the body. came with an aem CAI V2 and a neuspeed front x-brace & hardtop of course.

i've already ordered everything - it's either in the mail or i already have it:
total moddage of the car:
gonna get a small sound system in there as well
leaving the stock exhaust and stock headers on for now, dont need to spend $2k extra on additional measly hp. with the gears and sc, any more power would probably result in a loss of traction.

Re: new s2k owner (immortal)
Nice find! Im liking the top
I have some questions about the performance mods though, the appearance mods are your taste but...
You dont think your car looks low enough and doesnt it already have almost no body roll? (or else why get the bars, springs and shocks unless the car has gotten soft with age)
You think the stock clutch is too weak for the 7-10 lbs of boost from a S/C? (or is it already worn out?)
You think the S shifter is too long? (my friends' ferrari is almost identical to my 06)
I would reconsider leaving the stock exhaust when adding a S/C, aftermarket exhaust made a huge difference with the turbo on my GSR.
Later

the picture i posted is chopped to be lowered to the springs im getting. it has a bit more body roll than i want, after having heavily modified cars before this and been riding on motorcycles for the past 5 years i need something more aggressive.
the stock clutch might last with the supercharger, but not very long. take into account it has 45k miles on the clutch and it has the s2k clutch buzz goin on. the parts on the car now are 6-7 years old also (shocks, springs etc)
the s shifter is the nicest transmission i've ever used, but i've heard nothing but SOLID reviews on the axialflow shifter that completely transforms it. many comparisons have been said that how great the s2k tranny feels vs other trannies, with the axialflow its the same feeling all over again reducing the throw by 30% on an already short shift. the feeling of the axialflow shifter is supposed to be spectacular also.
the s2k is already so highly tuned the extra exhausts dont do that much for the price they warrant. i dont need anymore noise as well, its already loud enough. i had a turbo gsr also and i had a 3" on there. but with the gears im getting i wont need more power, for now

Re: (civicrida3)
Sweet ride Kurt
Still have your bike? I'm in the market for a S2000 also since I just sold my E46 M3. Looking at a '02 for $20k w/ 25k miles (hope the guy still has it).
Hey if you dont want that CAI, save it for me
