Mods really do make you faster:)
I have had my 98 ITR (well this is actually my second one) for over 3 years now, and since I bought it I refused to modify it citing my inability to drive the car to its absolute limits. Aside from R compound tires and high temp brake stuff and some seats I did nothing. Finally a few weeks ago I put in the JDM 4.785 FD kit, GSR 5th gear, Fidanza Al fly, Spoon clutch, JDM 4-1 header, test pipe, and JDM 23mm Rear sway bar. This weekend I went to my local favorite roadcourse and my time improved by slightly over two seconds using the same tires as before. So perhaps some of this is skill, but I think the mods helped a lot as well, the JDM rear sway alone makes a huge difference in handling and with everything else even if the car wasn't faster (which it is) its a lot more fun to drive. Just thought I'd share, I still have an S2000 for sale if anyones interested

Just curiously opened the thread since so many people have looked, but no replys. Not trying to knock, but the title is kind of a

Anyways, I like how you casually say, "I still have an S2000 for sale..". If it was me I would say, "I have a stock of gum or two that I could part".

Jdm 23mm sway over the us itr 22mm? Did it make that much of a difference?
