Re: EM2 2001 K swap turbo 500whp plus

nice build!
good luck with the exhaust? Don't get caught
nice the wide angle effect in the roof corners too
what rear brakes you using? stock? Jus' curious, not sure how the higher weight (EM2) acts on the s2k brakes

What do u mean good luck wit the exhaust? I have a silencer that i put on if i get pulled over. Usually gets me out the ticket.
Dont know what u mean wide angle effect explain?
Stock rear drums,2001 em2 ex weight 2600lbs and a s2000 weight 2800 so the civic is lighter the brakes outperform the stock ones ten fold.

Ah, it sounds very loud in the video jus' joking
Never did check the s2k weight. the reinforces for the convertible chassis + the transmission adds for the front engine/rear drive makes it heavier... wow...
about the wide angle, did you notice how your roof looks bulged in the edges? (like a Lotus elise roof? higher in the shoulderSs) - that is a wide angle lens

PS I love that white K24 swap EM2, sexi as hell, looks completely stock too, with minor mods. Def a sleeper
