hope the new wheels fit better. Doesn't sound like it will though. Clean car otherwise. an ASM single exhaust bumper would look perfect.

kinda like it.. but you ruined it for driving.. like half race car half hellaflush...

i think you would enjoy the car more if you had better planted tires, proper coil-overs, and a few days at a racing school... might help you break away from the goofy rim fad..

all that being said, as long as your happy.. you obviously put the time and money into playing with the car, that alone i can respect a great deal. Hang around more.. s2ki is going to **** with all the civic kids buying s2000 and doing the hellaflush thing

i also noticed you put the jacks on the frame rails.. prob not the safest.. gonna guess the side skirts cover the factory jack stand point (double lapped/reinforced pinch)

just be safe man, don't work on a car with the jacks there

thanks for the advice man, i know its not safe to go under no worries...
i daily drive this ar,did 12000km last summer on this set up... no issue at all, car drive fine
i changed wheels all the time, i used to track a lot my integra and civics years ago,so i have experience on a track but since i moved here in Bc there no track worth my time compare to where i used to live in quebec/ontario.
... even with those skinny tires i have bigger ***** and experience than 90% of the s2k owner around here
im having fun going sideways lately so the reason why no grip set up....we all know how s2k diff's are fragile
I also pulled and rolled my fenders enough so i dont need to run stupid amount of camber, my tires might be skinny but at least they are touching the ground.

for 2012 ill be running 235/40/17 proxes R1R on a 17x10 (-4 camber) up front
and 255/35/18 on a 18x10.5 (-2.5 max) on the rear

Im running Bc Br coilovers with 12k all around.

and for the exhaust well, it sound sick it cost me less than 100$ I shaved almost 50lbs and i dynoed 224whp 159wtq compare top 212whp stock so i dont care you guys think its ugly cause i think im the big winner here... you guys can spend 1500$ on your titanium exhaust haha

what resonator did you use?,

i just re-built my own exhaust, went to 2.5" this time, obx 14" resonator, flowmaster single chamber muffler (muffles nothing... lol) and a fake cat/cover, all vbands..

it's loud as **** but defiantly the best yet for performance, really wish people would start building there own exhausts instead of the whole j's/spoon/whatever stuff

im running the oem piping and resonator, so i have a 63.5mm T1R test pipe after thats is the oem piping and oem resonator and instead of separating into the 2 oem mufflers i welded a 2.5 stainless single exit pipe ! ive been running for a while without the last part (cutout straight after the resonator , it was not as good performance wise ) by adding around 2 feet of piping to it really help sound and performance wise ! i guess i needed some restriction !

I think the exhaust sounds great.
Sounds similar to my spoon n1 single.
We're those xxr 527 wheels the gold set?

you like to drift i see... you should really fly with that.. i think a steering rack swap, or a way to make it a more manual rack/none electrical might help a lot..

a bit more torque would prob go a long way, gears/ap2 trans
