I think the S2k needs wider tires. Especially if you go with a SC or Turbo app. The one problem with the S2k is that it is a perfect car for stock applications but once you change something, you need to go slightly wider. I know a few people that keep a 255 on the rear with a SC and the car really likes to spin. More rubber will slow the S2k down a bit but will give it much increased handling. I guess it depends on what you want to do. I will never drag race my car unless I figure out a new rear end for the car. But I definitely will run it on the track and Autocross.. And wider tires will help me out quite a bit. Although when I autocross, I will keep the car as close to stock as possible since I don't want to run against ZO6's and Vipers..

yeah, the S2K unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) doesn't really have much on the aftermarket for it because of it's optimized engineering. And frankly, I"m a bit scared to go SC or TC just cause of the fact it's a tiny 4 cylinder. That's what I have my integra for =) I think you should keep the S 2000 stock, and but a project car on the side. If you're extreme, go for both of them being project cars that's what I"m trying, but this Damn S2K is already pushing it's limits... I have to find out how to do everything safely. For now, I'm more than happy with what it gives me stock wise.

the differences i see are the huge (photoshopped) rear trunk brake light. the wider tires, european rear bumper, painted bottom lip on the rear bumper, and also the after-market exhaust.
i think it looks gross with the tail light like that.
edit: the suspension is different too.

Wonder if it could leave BMWs in the dust with its exhaust scraping on the ground like that.
