Paintwork I’m sure is going to look stunning, particularly once you have detailed it. Which spec intrax suspension are you going with? I haven’t heard of any review on these.Greg

Intrax I am likely to go with 1K2 with ARC (Anti roll control) and black titan to prevent corrosion. If I can stretch the budget I will go for 1K2XL, the XL basically is more responsive to the regular 1K2. From what I've read on other forums for Porsche/BMW, people seem to have had good results with Intrax and am hoping that by using soft springs and having the anti roll control, I can get a somewhat compliant ride whilst keeping things civilized in the bends1996 S2 ABY Silver

Thank you Anton, I know how you feel! I miss it like mad.
I do hope so too! I'm a bit nervous about the actual process of putting it together again. Will definitely be updating more often in the future .
Me too! It will be another 4-5 months I estimate by the time I get everything gathered, assembled properly. I do plan on doing a Euro trip in a year or two if everything goes well .
Thank you! Can't believe it's been so long already.
I haven't seen the car in the flesh yet but the painter knows how picky I am with paint so sure he has done a great job. Then anything I can fix I will do later.

interested to hear what the pricing is like on the intrax. I couldn’t justify after just changing the front shocks but interesting to see options other than kwHonda CBR 1100XX Blackbird Turbo....undergoing major changes.....
S2 Coupe... bit easier off the line...
'03 ZX12-R daily hack.... lots of nice bolt ons...

I've finally got my car back (almost). The interior still needs to be assembled and some electrics doing, minor stuff but waiting on people to get these jobs done. Some other minor jobs here and there as well such as light treatment on inner wheel wells but nothing major thus far.
Did have time to wash the car, underneath and out. Having the car home is already great, among the cars I'm working on as well. You can see the Recaro CSE in the car, they still need to be wired up properly. More details on interior will come once it is done. Just serviced the car today and will put new plugs tomorrow once I have a feeler gauge in hand.
