Not really updated this in a while but here is how the car sits now, I had a little photoshoot with a friend of mine, he does really great work, check out his facebook page!





I also went to Mimms Honda day yesterday, had a nice little parking spot:




Im now selling the Enkei NT03+Ms and looking to get some RPF1s in 17x9et45 rather than 18x9.5et38" and get some AD08s on them. Still have some bodywork issues I want to get sorted and a hard-top when I find one up for sale.

What a great looking s2000. This is so weird, last night I was talking to a friend saying how much I would love a set of NT03's for my s2000, and then I notice your thread today. This just confirms how good they look on this car!

How are you finding the Yellowspeed coilovers? I've been toying between them and Miester R's

I appreciate that, I spend ages looking through a 40 page thread on S2ki.com regarding NT03's, its just a shame they dont come in the concave face like much anything under 9.5j, would have liked to have staggered them.

Yellowspeed are actually very good, rate them as good as the buddyclub ones I had on my old Type R, good rate of dampening settings, they can also go VERY low if you wanted them too, im very low and not even half way wound down, Im sure you could get it sitting on the floor if you wanted. I can throw it into a corner and have 0 noticable body roll, however I do have the stiffness set to max.

Small update, I got hold of a genuine mugen hardtop off the owners forum. Very rare and they look so much better than the OEM hardtop in my opinion. Its currently silverstone so I need it painted, and i'm also waiting on the brackets to arrive, so its sitting in my flat currently.



Heres what it'll look like once fitted, although a different colour:

Little update, Mugen hardtop fitted, bumper reprayed, spoiler fitted, and I painted my wheels gloss black.











I do eventually want to get new wheels but the oems with decent tyres are doing me well.

Any comments welcome 😊

Raise it up a bit and add some Eibach or H&R spacers to the oem wheels and that'd be bob on. The oem 17s are hard to beat on these, I looked long and hard when I had mine and gave up in the end as I liked them too much.

Yeah I really do like the OEM wheels but I just fancy a change. Im looking at the Work wheels range at the moment but just can't decide, RPF1's are another option but I know a couple of guys running them and I just want something a little different. Feel free to give me some options! Rota wheels are a cheaper option too and they do some very good sizes and offsets for some chunky tyres on the S2000. Some Rota Grid Drifts with some 255 AD08's work out at around the same price as a set of Work wheels.

My dream wheels would be some 17x9 Volk CE28's but they are just out of my budget at the moment. Maybe next year!

If you're feeling lucky at finding rare things there is always facelift NSX wheels....



Or go for something completely different

Those are different wheels, I sold the Enkei NT03 wheels in the photo shoot photos I'm afraid. Thank you though!

I gave it a service yesterday, unfortunately my friends bucket to hold the old oil had a crack that we didn't notice and most of it went all over his drive.

I prefer it really, I want to get the H badge removed from the rear too, but I see what you mean about it looking a bit naked, anyway here's a picture for the sake of it!
