    The Transformation of Spoon Us's S2000

    well, this is one of the guys i know decently well; decent guy, Amazing car. He's had his car for a short while, and in that timespan has really changed his mind about where he wants his car to go. But the latest transition is the most outlandish, expensive, and rare setup. Ernie's s2000 is now ready to see serious power put into the engine, as the exterior is almost completely finished. Here is SpoonUs's S2000's progression: I like!

    bought stock in silverstone, modded it to this:

    then, the Spoon colors and spoon racing pace setup:

    then, the gold ings setup which now graces the cover of Honda Tuning and is on Jtuned's website:

    would he stay with this magazine queen? No, not quite. ever played GT4?
    [IMG]
    naturally, when this exclusive kit, exhaust, hood, and hardtop became somewhat available, that was all that would do.

    time to tear it down.

    and build it up, the first Amuse s2k in the US

    well, this is just a caption of the 40+ page thread on the s2k forums.

    It's now finally almost done, exhaust, hood, top and wing still in customs waiting to get to the U.S.. ITBs, redone internals and a much more powerful, still NA setup, to come.

    added, hardtops cost more than bodykits, and he has had two, now going to his third. on the downlow, I just bought his Mugen hardtop (the one in all the pictures except the spoon ones), and we all know how much authentic mugen parts cost. So thats helping him get this amuse HT, but he's a real good guy. buys stuff overseas, pays customs and shit, and then sells it later when he gets tired of it on his car so we don't have to. i.e. rims, tops, diffusers, seats, etc. but... he never says what he does for a living.... Crack dealer!

    I like the current color of the car. Since he seems to get things done right when it comes to his car he probably got the old paint stripped before a new coat was put on. If not, all that paint would probably start to add some weight to the car. I know that's a problem with planes, so it would be funny to see that happen with a car.

    That's hideous... also the colors aren't bright, they're more muted which isn't very exciting on a sports car.
