Keep your eyes open for a 03 Euro SVT in CD silver w/108k miles. It is really clean and strong - Will be at auction here in Vegas soon - Thanks to all that have been helpful here through my 03 silver svt and my old 03 red svt.

Here's what I got - It is an 02 w/ 16k miles. 1 owner and really clean. It's an late AP1, so it still has the 2.0 w/ 9k redline but it has a glass window. Its not practical, but it sure is fun...

Good choice of a car. My friend (AirPower!!) got an '04 S2K with the full J's Racing body kit. Pretty fun ride. I have his old Focus now, and I'll probably have it for a while. Anyways, now that you have a car with serious potential, it's gonna be hard not to modify it, hah.

Pull the honda badge off, slap on toyota, install 2jz then you have a fast hon-yota...
...and defeat the whole purpose of an s2k.

if he wanted to do that, he would of just bought a supra

I don't know about defeating the *whole* purpose of an S2k...granted the 2JZ setup is heavier, but you can compensate with adjustable sway bars and battery relocation, etc. There actually is a company in Florida that offers a complete, extreme boost-ready 2JZ swap in S2ks for $16k. Just a thought...

The interior of the s2000 is pretty hot! Blue and black are definantly my favorite colors. Have fun with that car.. is it your first rwd car?
Also your old red svt looked awesome! it was rolling on rota attacks or excels?

Those are Attacks - Royal steel gray w/polished lip. I sold them to Andreas at XIOS. Not very many sets of those in 4x108...I'm actually looking at Rotas for the s2k - either the Boosts or the Torques - haven't decided.

Hard top. NOW!
Live in Vegas + they're almost 3 grand = I'll save it for a turbo...

and to get rid of those horrible chrome wheels!

I thought I'd let everyone know how lucky they are to have such a great forum for the Foci. I've been on the honda forums and can't believe the juvenile behavior that goes on. I love the car, but I wish it had a ford badge to get rid of all the ricers. And if I see anyone else that spends 500% more on an identical JDM part...I'll let 'em flame me for getting Rotas and keep my extra $2500 bucks.

I would say the Boosts look more for the race track and the Torques are more stylish. Only thing is...your car is a light blue and I'm not sure how black would look. Your call, though. I looked up the weights and they're only a pound apart, so that shouldn't be a huge deal. I had some Circuit 10s in gunmetal on my old Civic and loved them.
