I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

350+ NA s2000 sound fucking amazing, and run retarded times on circuits. I agree with solotwo also, the car was built to handle great and the power is there to do it. No more than needed. But again 2 each his own. Not my car

hmmm... heres a thought... what does spoon or mugen do with a S2K?? ive never seen them drag race it.... oh i know they just put crazy parts on a use less car and make people want to buy it!! wait thats not it... oh thats right they build the car for corners and aerodynamics and to beable to go around the track at stuiped speeds!! id hate to be at a track with that 2jz S2k against a Spoon S2k... id bet cornering wise the spoon would leave it and not have so much brake fade and tire wear from all the braking youd have to do with all that speed the turboed s2k would have... just my 2 cents

The S2k was meant to handle, yes. This particular one - obviously - was made for rediculous straight-line speed. I don't see what all the confusion is about. I just thought it was impressive.

i think the car itself is clean but like some of you are saying, why not just buy a supra in the first place?

Why put a H22 in a Civic when you could just buy a prelude? :rolleyes:

I don't know if it's the same one but I caught this on eBay tonight. I agree with kotomile. The whole idea behind modifying anything is to turn it into something it is not.

CLICK IT

Sometimes it works. An '89 Civic wasn't really intended to autcross (though it does quite a good job).

Sometimes it doesn't. When you mix NFL with professional wrestleing (XFL), well, you get the picture.

The S2K is not intended to be a straight line Supra but I think they did a fair job on this one.

Its a 2JZ swap similar to the one in the pic below but w/o nas
