S2000 drift missile?

Here we have a slightly different kind of s2000. It is not polished and ready for the next exhibition. It is build with only one goal in mind and this is "PURE simplicity and practicality"

 

 

The car is equipped with 16 inch watanabes, which is rare to see an old school rim like this one on a modern tire eater like the s2000. This gives more of a AE86 feel to it and deffenetly this is not 

 

 

The bodywork is noting special, it is a bit on the neglected side. Stock package. Sometimes stock is better in my opininon...

 

 

It is obvious from the look of the car that it is DRIFT ONLY and this is proven on the track.

 

 

You rarely see this - S2000 build to be a drift car. And I really really like it because in term of driving characteristics it resembles the AE86 quite a lot.

 

 

The interior is simple yet effective. The unnecessary weight is reduced to maximum. A drift button on the handbrake and a roll-cage which is a must in this open seater.

 

 

Car spec:

  • KBEE coilovers
  • Saito roll cage
  • Spoon engine mounts
  • Cusco RS diff
  • 5Zigen exhaust

This is one trully awesome car and I bet the driver is also a nice guy. What inspires me in this machine is its simplicity and the fact that it is something different from the crowd. Just a car build and ment to be fun to drive. It is really pitty that this cars are stopped from production and their value is going skyrocket fro the last few years, but I hope we are going to see more like this drift missile in the future.
