No matter how you feel about imports or “Ricer’s,” this is a car that any car enthusiast can appreciate. This S2000 owner has done a great job outfitting his Honda to be a modded out piece of machinery. A little more to this story is, this car is apparently best friends with the wicked EVO we introduced you to a while back. If you missed that EVO here’s the write up. Either way, you don’t want to miss these pictures and mod list, it’s one to envy. Our sales guy’s Arsha’s (arsha@vividracing.com ext. 225) helped this guy with his build and in return, he not only sent us pictures of his bad ass S2000, but he sent us a write up as well. Here’s his write up and pictorial on this not so typical S2000. (Take note of the awesome decal shout out!)
“Remember a few weeks back we did the write up about the Evo X that Arsha has been helping with parts.. Well this is his best friend.
When looking at this car your first thought is Ricer, or stupid Honda owner. But this Guy is far from it. Every part has a purpose and nothing has been overlooked or skimped on. From the full motor build to the APR wing and Wasp Composite race splitter that may look ridiculous to most, but when you take into consideration that he tracks this Daily Driven 651 WHP monster you understand the purpose. Even though it looks mostly stock on the outer shell there is nothing stock about under the hood or suspension.
Now you don’t build a track car like this without knowing a thing or two. After seeing the racing resume, which includes a national road racing championship in shifter karts, that he has been around the block once or twice on the track. There is still much more to come for this viscous monster and we can’t wait to see the finished product.
Must give a huge shout out to Wasp Composite for all there help with this aero package. Some of the best guys out and make an awesome splitter. Keep a look out for there FRS/BRZ splitter coming soon. Go like them on facebook for all there new products coming soon. Also LHT Performance for a great motor build that not only makes huge power and is reliable as hell. Check them out on facebook for all your Honda needs. Last but not least Induction performance for tunning the car. Hit them up for all your tuning needs no matter where or what it is, Alpha is the guy to contact.
Just another crazy build coming out of the small car club in Florida, called Darkside Empire.”
