    ok ok,

    i think i need to get a couple metal joiners, i have been looking at it this morning and my scuttle cover wont allow me to put the header thank underneath and i dont want to loose that as i think it keeps it looking neat so my new thought is gloss black the header tank and put it on the bulk head so everything is within and clear of the inner arches

    What are you looking for in an S2000, i can offer you some advise.

    Its totally different to an R5 but i guess you know that.

    In reference to the post in your sale thread, i'd never sell it for an 350Z but each to their own.

    Re: black phase 2, old friend of the forum

    Haha I know very poor effort

    It's been raised nearly 2 inches at the rear which normally goes against my vw grain but it's so much nicer to drive and now nose heavy instead of bum heavy.

    The exhaust has been rehung so no more horrible vibrations

    And the carb has been set up for 18 psi manifold with a 4 psi drop so 22psi carb top. It's still giving us a little jip by running rich on initial start up but there is a plan for the way forward.

    The car was also given the going over of its life time and I was supplied a very comprehensive report with compression test results coolant system pressure check and every area of the car examined.

    I do have a to do list now but I also know the eyes that examined the car are very experienced and have high standards which is what I liked.

    Big thanks to Tony @ gt turbo spares for his efforts

    new ride height pics

    as much as i am a 'low car person' and this went against my grain it feels much better on the road as the weight is forward and much more fun on the country roads as before when it was dragging its bum on the floor it was doing the car no favours

    Thanks Bood, no I haven't mate, I should have done really - I bought it in quite a mess and have spent the last 18 months slowly restoring it. Just refitted my ARB and full exhaust back on the car today after being off the car 12 months.

    Oh and them I have a black one also and this is why I always closely follow your threads pal - gives me inspiration

    Nice basket

    I love that this car is the mule for camping trips. I don't know how you get that bike carrier on and loaded up without damaging the paintwork.

    Haha thanks.

    I don't think there is any point of having it if I don't use it. The bike rack does have padding and anything that touches the paint does have a soft pad on.
