Tell me more about this exhaust mod! What is the modification?
I hate the sound of most aftermarket systems for Hondas, the trend in Japan seems to be as loud as possible. I want it to sound like a sports car should when giving it some beans, and a more purposeful note at idle would not be a bad idea, but I don't want anything too loud or boomy.
The FIPK intake kit is already on my list for the new year though
There is a huge thread on s2ki on the mod. It's a bypass of the backboxes but keeps the standard system and reonator so it's not too loud nor boomy. Drone is a big issue on aftermarket exhausts.
Dont take it on the track. They are slow.

Great price! Hope you're enjoying it. Tax and insurance in a month for me (the only downside to ownership). I need to investigate the exhaust mod as it sounds brilliant.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Exhaust mod looks well worth looking into, just the sort of sound I want if done with sensible diameter pipe!
I've now ordered some bits for it! K&N FIPK on its way, along with Tegiwa oil filter stopper (more a security thing than anything else), Skunk2 gearknob (mate has one on his EP3 and I prefer it to the stock AP2 one), and some brighter bulbs for the main beam lights...

Simon, what oil would you recommend for the S2K?
Not even a two stroke?
i use 5-40, Motul 300V as i get a good discount
what bulbs are you getting i need to change mine.
Gone for some Phillips xtreme vision H1s, had the H4 equivalent on my last car and they were awesome

Looks good OP!
With regards to you hoping the suspension adjusters are not rusted, my mx5 is two weeks shy of 21 years old and just had a suspension setup done with no issues. I think yours will be fine.

Honda UK recommend a 5W-40, with ACEA C3, product.
I have the standard exhaust with a decat and Toda manifold, sounds nice but need to get around to looking at this mod, although too big a bypass pipe can sound a little agricultural. Still on the stock airbox too as I don't trust non OEM filters on these.
