Welcome to the forum! Amazing build! It's weird. I don't like a lot of the individual things you did, but I love the end product. I really respect your attention to detail.

Thanks for the warm welcome 
Last weekend I installed a new update
This was the old setup. 262mm discs
Installed the new 330mm Rotora discs
Installed the RVS brakelines
Contected them to the new callipers
Fitted the rimms and that's it
There's a 1.5mm gap between the inside of the rimms and the callipers

bodykits, lambo doors, and crazy hoods really aren't my thing. I like the carbon fiber mirrors. And I actually really like the red/black interior. I dont think I'd do it to my car, but I like the way it looks on your car alot.
You should do a DIY write up with lots of pictures when you do the rear brake swap. What model/year car are you using parts from? (Integra? 99-00 civic si?) The front brakes look sick. What did they cost you?
When it comes down to it, your car is clean as hell. Its a shame its still SOHC. What motor swap are you planning on? Turbo or NA?

kuch....kuch... blow of some dust
The rear brake is from a Civic SI. The engine will be a B16A2 with a turbo setup.
Meanwhile I changed the backseat, bought matching front seats, mounted a snapoff and a DIY stearingwheel, cleaned the trunklid, installed an S2000 startbutton, modified the rear bumper, installed new taillights and last but not least installed a fully functional S2000 AP1 cluster.
Here's some pictures:

Modified the rear bumper to fit the licenseplate:
Next step in my project would be a custom metal widebody and matching rimms

I have never been a big fan of all the body kits and color matched interior stuff, but this is some clean work. It's not rice because it looks like it was done right.

This is nice, all the members can see why and where everyone is from.
The imgae with the red and the black looks like a match. Mine is a dull grey.
