  My s2000 Wide Body Turbo Project« » Reply  Edit


Hi & welcome to my s2000 project

This project has been going on now for the last 7 months, closer to a year if you take into account the planning phase!
Just a bit of background info first. I have a thread on s2ki.com but thought I should start one here to get different opinions on what I am doing. I will gradually be updating this thread to get it up to speed with the other one. There is a lot of detail and lots of pics showing the progression of the build which I will be uploading.

Some history:

* The Car: 2005 AP2 s2000 with 9000 miles.
* Location: The car will be built by RAW Racing, Florida, and once completed will be shipped to its final destination in Europe. There are such few parts around here and the ones there are are so expensive that I decided to do my car in the USA and ship it over.
* Plan: Once in Europe the car is lined up for photoshoots with two of the biggest tuning magazines in Europe, as well as a number of big shows. I will be updating everyone on this once the time comes...currently it seems very very very far away frown.gif
* Sponsors: Before I start I would like to thank all my current sponsors, not only for believing in this project but also for doing everything they can to help every step of the way:
o Mike @ Bulletproof Automotive
o Cody @ Lovefab
o Richie & Andres @ RAW Racing

Thanks to all for looking

Thanks man ... yep the colour looks great. Even so to be honest the pics do it no justice whatsoever, you have to see the car in front of you to truly appreciate how amazing the colour actually is. I will be posting some pics up in a bit (as long as i haven't overdone my forum limit of 5 posts for being a noob )

Yep thats me ... they are great guys and I am in very good hands. I just came back from a trip to Florida to see the car. Was absolutely amazing to see the car for the 1st time since I left it to them almost 8 months ago!

The colour and the kit looks great, its the graphic on the door that I'm not happy with. I'm not going to post pics of it for that reason, as I have been working on a new graphic with a graphic designer, so will be posting pics of the side of the car once it is complete. However for now there are many more pics

Thanks to all for all the positive comments!

Ah its not about the money its about the quality of information that I could be posting

Got to make the posts count - More pics of the build:

Pics of the kit:

The exhausts - Tracy Sports 70mm dual titanium with burned blue tips:

The basis for my colour choice, worth of an appearance on this thread:

I tried so hard to get hold of this hood but it just wasn't happening. Got in touch with the guys over at Amuse but they said the hood was a one off for their race car and they weren't changing their minds. Personally I like it, however obviously it is a bit extreme and won't appeal to the taste of many. Even so would have been great to have a one off part - off to look for another one off part


Will be posting more soon once these horrible modz get rid of my limit

Enjoy for now!

It's set by the forum to weed out trolls. I can see you're not a troll and you're posting great info, but if I do a favor for you and get rid of your noob status, I'd have to do it for everyone else also.

What wheels are you going with?

I understand completely, don't worry about it. I was only wondering if anything could be done - very speculative

Nope sorry not white works - would have killed everything

Im going with Racing Hart RS-722 in black and silver (19x9 front and 19x10 rear)

I think I'm done for the day / almost done. Looking forward to hearing from you all and will be replying tomorrow

Despite the bright orange color and wheels, I think this will still turn out looking good. I'm not a fan on bright colors unless it's on an exotic. I think you're going to pull it off somehow. Good luck.
