project COILOVER - My Honda s2000 Getting Dropped!!

[TheBeyBladeNation]

RICE BURNER!!!!!

[svasilca319]

1.75" front + rear

[sn0wglob3]

Sick man, how much of a drop is it? 2"?

[Herooftheday64]

GPW with tan interior FTW. I'm dropping mine tomorrow on BC Racing coilovers!

[Initialrt]

@Herooftheday64 i'm bout to splooge on some BCs. how low can you go with them?

[Herooftheday64]

@Initialrt I have OEM size tires, and I managed to tuck both front and back. The rear jack point is 3" off the ground, and the front jack point is 2.5" off the ground, but the front can go lower, to about 2". I can message you a link to a picture if you'd like to see it.

[svasilca319]

@Herooftheday64 yeah man...send it to svasilca319@yahoo.com

[svasilca319]

@Herooftheday64 make a video - send me the link

[svasilca319]

jump to 3:20 - watch her get Loooow...looks like air bag suspension when the jack drops!

[o00Rusty00o]

5:30 ahhhh its smiling. :D the S2K is happy now :D

[svasilca319]

@o00Rusty00o 3:20 - watch her DROP low

[S0ULified]

moar low

[svasilca319]

it's normal

[Eugene2636]

@svasilca319 Hey man how much were they coilovers? like $2000,,,,,,,,because good stuff cost good,,,,,,and does your s2000 rides nice like not too jumpy like with cheap coilovers?

[Eugene2636]

Why that happens bro ? Because you needed control arms? Or It's normal?

[Eugene2636]

You mean your tires worn more on one side like outside of your tire, or your tires wear normal like always, you said chamber?

[svasilca319]

@Eugene2636 no they def don't wear normal like always...they wear out more on the inside of the inner tire, on both rears. in front they wear out like normal

[svasilca319]

I didn't need to buy any new control arms or experience any sort of irregular tire wear after going low...the tires normally wear more on the one side due to the camber but nothing more than is expected from dropping 1.75"

[Eugene2636]

Hey man I bought some shitty coilovers for my Integra for like $40, and it suck cause I had to change my tires they were worn fast and I put stocksprings back, What about your s 2000 does it eat tires bad or did you buy any control arms for it? or it's just just your coilovers are best brand?

[svasilca319]

...had to raise the drop-height up 1 inch for the winter - damn it sure feels weird goin up!

[pacman599]

That's perfectly lowered! Whats the height?

[svasilca319]

@pacman599 about inch and a half drop front and rear

[svasilca319]

keep 'em coming...i love comments!!

[qlump1e]

nice looking car

[BalkanBoyUSA]

were you happy with those coilovers ?

i have those same coilovers on my RX-7

and NoMatter how i adjust them if my dempering is set stiff all the way it's bouncing as if was on air bags and nothing else but the air bags i have to set 5 - 8 clicks from stiff not to bounce

[svasilca319]

@BalkanBoyUSA I'm pretty happy with them. I have the dampening set at 8 - right in the middle....rides nice and smooth

[ade201]

your car is bad-ass... Cleanest S2000 i've seen in a while!! Great Job

[Brndon076]

1:13 your shit got jacked!

[svasilca319]

@Brndon076 HA HA...yeah she sure did - but she got out-fitted!!

[bmxjesse7]

I like how it said made in japan on the box, but he had to have it in text lol

[svasilca319]

@bmxjesse7 i did that just for you jessie!! Bang!

[rocaho001]

@svasilca319 What year is your s2k kind sir. It's a beauty.

[epich100]

it just looks so amazing !

[glock19x300]

Um yea don't listen to those guys... that shit is dropped... any more and all performance would go out the window. That hellaflush shit is for people that want to get attention from high school girls and asian guys.

[blahblah2018]

@glock19x300 mostly asian guys

[svasilca319]

@glock19x300 It doesn't bother me....i'm too mature for that shit. i know what looks good!!

[glock19x300]

@svasilca319 word

[rocaho001]

@svasilca319 Maaan your s2k looks amazing down to the rims. S2Ks don't look good overdone. They're already a beauty stock but a little lowered EVEN better. I'm getting one soon and this is exactly how mine is gonna be. I'll try to look for a dark grey ap2.

[rocaho001]

@glock19x300 Haha dead on!

[svasilca319]

@rocaho001 BLAAAAM!!!

[rocaho001]

@svasilca319 :DDD maaaan the s2k has the sickest side profile look btw

[svasilca319]

@rocaho001 i agree!!

[rocaho001]

@svasilca319 BAM!!!

[svasilca319]

@rocaho001 booyaa

[rocaho001]

@svasilca319 lol

[Plyinhoops]

Nice vid! I like the music too

[svasilca319]

@Plyinhoops muchos gracias!!!

[azzzzz101]

how low can you make your coil-overs go?

[Daeko1]

Maybe for you, But my eg is actually dropped. haha. My mudflaps are touching the ground. >.<

[svasilca319]

@Daeko1 mudflaps and s2000's don't mix...sorry bud

[Daeko1]

Dropped?  retitle the video. This isnt dropped at all.

[svasilca319]

@Daeko1 It might not be in your eyes, but it is to me!!! It's DROPPED son!!!

[blopeezy]

@svasilca319 not dropped but it is cleanly lowered well done dut619 dot com now his s2000 is dumped

[svasilca319]

@blopeezy Thank you Sir

[blopeezy]

@svasilca319 my car is dumped and i am kinda tired of it being dumped the scene has been over used in a bad way i will be putting my ej6 above tire berally just like this nicely done man keep it clean 

[runekhmer]

Its already nice.. u dont need anything else!!!!

[COCKadoodle321]

love the car and a clean s2k, but thats nothing. that shit could definately go lower and NEEDS to go lower... and put some rims on that thing...

[svasilca319]

@COCKadoodle321 what rims do you suggest? I've been thinking hard about getting some rims lately...if u have a link to a picture of the rims on an s2k, that would be cool. Post away everyone.

[COCKadoodle321]

@svasilca319 my preferred favorites because my friend has them on his white s2k are BBS LM's... he's slammed on them and his stance is soo pretty... definately defines the term "HELLA FLUSH" his rims sizes are 17x9 +40 in the front and 18x9 +35 in the back... he's definately stretching his tires. he's got 215/45 in the front and 225/40 in the back... its pretty crazy but i must say its an amazing set up and when we caravan he definately turns heads when we go anywhere.

[COCKadoodle321]

@svasilca319 he has the gold rims which look really nice on the white s2k... but i also like the look of polished aluminum.... volk TE37's also look quite stunning on this car ... those are my two favorite rims for this car... IMO i love this car, this car makes me wanna trade in my G35 to get one. but yea... i like the drop you put on but definately could go lower. especially once you get rims, just to give it that true flush look. hope that helps! message me if you have any other questions.

[COCKadoodle321]

ohh yeaaa and if you do get rims and lower it more... be able to afford tires on regular cuz even tho the stance is soo nice itll still be cambered like a bitch even with camber kits that you're gonna be wearing tires every few months. im sure you knew all this tho

[PAOHMONGYANG]

what you have on you drop?nice can't wait to drop my s2King this summer

thanks

[svasilca319]

@PAOHMONGYANG did a front 1.75 inch drop and rear 1.75 inch drop. No rubbing!!!

[PAOHMONGYANG]

@svasilca319 so the drop 1.75 front and 1.75 rear is the one in this video right?and how the tein coilover ride?and does it bumb all day? thanks looking to get one for my s is there any other video i can see your drop on your S2k

thanks

[MugenDB2]

That's bad bro, I wish it was the black and red interior though.

[svasilca319]

@MugenDB2 It's Grand Prix White, or you know the way out!! lol

[vmagic7]

i read somewhere that after a while, you need to readjust the coilovers. is that true?

[svasilca319]

@vmagic7 I would do it just to be safe about it. Get them un locked and relock and tighten them to your ride-height specs.

[vmagic7]

@svasilca319 mmm makes sense, anyway nice upgrade. wish i could keep my car this low but unfortunately i live in la and i have to raise mine up.

[svasilca319]

@vmagic7 thanks...it was the best upgrade i ever did.

[svasilca319]

@jv010589 Good Pick on the Tein Flex...I absolutely love them, haven't had any issues since ;)

The measurements i used was 1.50" drop front and back. Use that caliper tool to get exact measurements...it came in real handy. Good Luck

[svasilca319]

@YZ125ups "No Rubbing! Nothing!" - quote from video! Speed bumps - depending on height, but i take em all at an angle ;)

[LonewolfSaichi]

I just jizzed my pants sir...

[svasilca319]

@LonewolfSaichi glad to be of service! LOL

[LonewolfSaichi]

@svasilca319 xD

[svasilca319]

@LonewolfSaichi Ready for another jizz? ha ha

[LonewolfSaichi]

@svasilca319 too late!

[cchshockey4]

[Birdcage67554]

I used to drive a honda...then it fell apart...it fell apart, like they always do...oh baby, oh baby

[svasilca319]

@Birdcage67554 highly unlikely!! unless u a ricer, then u beat her to shit ha ha, beat her to shit ha ha oh baby

[Birdcage67554]

@svasilca319 i was kidding i never owned a honda, just thought it was catchy. lol

[svasilca319]

@Birdcage67554 thank you...had to have a catchy comeback for such a catchy line

@RulaPilula333 I slammed it about 1.75 inches...

[omgfroobynoobs]

[29ryan49]

Because I use mine year round, I gotta keep it at stock height. >_>

[svasilca319]

@29ryan49 I keep my S2k in the garage 300 days out of the year...i wanna maintain it's value and put as little wear&tear on her as possible ;)

[johnnyramma]

great vid........lovely car !!!

[bboykingp]

how much did you drop it?

[LSWleaderLuke]

how much did it cost to get it slammed?

[svasilca319]

@LSWleaderLuke about $175 cash...but it was a friend of my buddies and he worked in the shop, so it was a sweet deal, and the garage played out so perfect for this video. Thanks Alex

[LSWleaderLuke]

@svasilca319 my mom has a 06 s2 im trying to see if she will let me sweep that from her :D

[hotlantabraves88]

Beautiful S man. I have an 05 S2K as well and am looking into getting it dropped. I had Tein coilovers on my previous car (95 Accord) and loved them. Just wanted to ask you though, are you pleased with your ground clearance or you do scrape often?

[svasilca319]

@hotlantabraves88 i lowered about 1.75 inches and i have no problems with ground clearence. Obvioulsy take driveways at angles and also when entering and exiting parking lots.

[luimarco]

Hey There

did you have any Camber issues and if so how did you fix them?

[svasilca319]

@luimarco NEGATIVE - no camber issues. My alignment maxed out and was enough to compensate the shift

[Aucteg]

aye man, did u end up need axle spacers??

[svasilca319]

@Aucteg Nope - no axel spacers. As is, the rubber fits perfectly under the fender lips

[jdmlov3]

all a s2000 needs is a nice drop and it looks amazing

[svasilca319]

@jdmlov3 hell yeah

[ihorbayus]

@jdmlov3 owww ye you 100% right

[svasilca319]

@ihorbayus agree on that one

[WhatPlantsCrave]

Put that front lip on the ground!

[svasilca319]

@snowNbike010 She's the sexiest lady in Central PA!!

[krookedKiller13]

@gdp505 I believe it's a vernier caliper.

[svasilca319]

@krookedKiller13 your in the right ball park

[svasilca319]

@krookedKiller13 Thats it. The Vernier Caliper!!!

[aliefdrumline]

[dukie827]

5:33

say cheese!

[svasilca319]

THANK YOU YOUTUBE. 10,000 hits is a Milestone!!!!

[xxnissansilviaxx]

ok dude i gotta question for u...i love the s2k and one day hope to get one...butt this questions is about the seats...do u ever wish they cud recline???

[svasilca319]

@xxnissansilviaxx HAHA every single day. There's no question if u a big guy this ain't the car for you. U gotta be 180 max and 5'10 or smaller to fit nicely in the pit

[xxnissansilviaxx]

@svasilca319 im like 130 and 5 8 or 5 9 idk if love this car tho its sik...the nissan z is gr8 too but its small to but bigger tahn this i kno ahaha

[svasilca319]

@xxnissansilviaxx Nissan Z is shit. Sure it has more horsepower and tourque....but it doesn't been the S2000 in handling, cornering,and top-end VTECH power

[xxnissansilviaxx]

@svasilca319 so in ur opinion which wud u buy if u had to do it all over again..the z is faster from wat i know i dont know i love both but which is easier to live with cheaper to maintain? any probs with urs? ihave always loved the z's ALL of then from the 240z the the 370z but i am a honda head at heart as u can tell by my videos i have a 1997 honda accord v6 sedan i love it but i always wanted a s2000 or z well a nsx wud b sik but i aint rich ahaha

[xxnissansilviaxx]

@svasilca319 i wud love one of these one day and a fit too the fit is so cool lol the fit wud b for friend runs and daily shit long trips and the s2k for daily but not in rough areas of hard weather and shit idk just a dream i guess lol

[marlo916]

@svasilca319 are you kidding... the 350's handling is just as good if not better.. the 350 also has near 50/50 weight distribution and assloads more torque than the s2k. dont get me wrong, i'm a honda guy for life and i too would prefer the s2k over the Z but dont knock it down cause you dont know foreal... its a good car as well. btw you just made yourself look like a fool when you spelled vtec with an H.

[svasilca319]

@marlo916 thanks for the pointer Jack ASS

[hahaitskenny]

@marlo916 LOL i was gonna point out the "vtech" comment but guess you beat me to it haha

[svasilca319]

@hahaitskenny DOHC V-TEC

[svasilca319]

@YoanEmond Nope - never rub! But i do occasionally scrape my oil pan and bumper weather stripping!

[Colaman965]

Hitman

[svasilca319]

@Colaman965 Damn Straight. It worked perfectly!!

[ProjectYaris]

Height looks perfect.. just curious aggressive turns, or on bumps any rubbing?

[kurly87]

props on the vid. haha nice choice of songs (hitman)

[svasilca319]

@kurly87 Thanks buddy. I still got copyrighted by You-Tube though

[carveral111]

This is sweeeeeet!!!

[JermFaceKiLLa]

hope you got driveshaft spacers now that you dropped you s2k

[svasilca319]

@JermFaceKiLLa Actually i don't have driveshaft spacers installed post- drop, and i haven't had any problems. Only complaint is this sporadic knocking sound coming from the Right rear coilover. I havent figured out what it is yet

[mrgi85]

Nice drop. About the same as my ap2, but u should consider gettina an ap2 oem front lip, it looks sick. Had this setup for about a yr now and it never gets old.

[morristauch]

man i wanna drop my s so bad..to bad i cant afford it =(

ps very nice job on yours..very clean!

[Aucteg]

this vid never gets old

[svasilca319]

@Aucteg it was amazing just to shoot and create this project! thanks for that compliment!

[Aucteg]

aye man i heard the left rear is pretty tough due to flue line/pipe, is that true? And how much did you lower it ?

[svasilca319]

@Aucteg i went down about 1 and 3/4 inches

[svasilca319]

@Aucteg i went down about 1 and 3/4 inches
