    At the end, I got a set of JICs FLT-FAS for 1700.
    At the moment... its alot stiffer, but mostly comfortable... but i guess... its also because I've put on all the strut bars, under bars and thicker antiroll bars...
    Turn in is sharper now and the tail more controllable... don't snap away as much now.
    I will be taking it down to wakefield in early april to have a run.
    If anyone interested, when I know the exact day, u r welcome to join!

    Still regretting abit not buying the aragosta... (had to pay some other expenses and dried up my wallet....)

    Currently looking at getting an LSD and final gear.
    Abit off topic... but anyone tried the carbonetic LSD?

    and... whiteAP1... can u tell me more about the Kia Final gear - where to get (at kia parts?) - any other parts needed to fit?

    Cheers every1!

    I know from our STi R that the bilstein PSS9s are an extremely good unit, hopefully I'll be able to give you guys some feedback from the s2000 with them soon.

    Where did you get the JICs from? Seems like a good price... What are the spring rates? And finally, does it come with top mounts etc?

    My friend ordered a set of JICs from the nissan forum, and I placed an order together.
    The spring rate I have is F8 R10.
    It only comes with non-adjustable top mount... (for the same price the S15's unit comes with fully adjustable top mount... wtf!)

    Which user/shop on the forum?

    Sux that they still change the same with or without the camber tops - not cool. Either they make extra off them or they cost very little make...

    I'm using the Carbonetics LSD. Best LSD I've used. It's silent. It has the highest torque transfer rating of all the LSDs I've seen. In short, it's great.

    The only drawback is the price of the oil I'm using. Neo Synth oil isn't cheap...

    I hear the Ohlins are supposed to be very good, I've been researching these for a few days.... I still don't know enough about them so back to my reading

    You can buy Ohlins for S2000 with new Aluminium Cylinder for around $2700AUD from Japan or the Flag-S for S2000 for $4200

    I love the Japanese websites translated into english, they are just so incoherent, fun to read though!
