I feel bad for this car after seeing what happened to the s2k . Looks like a bunch of pointless or just streight dumb mods will be happening to this car . It was a nice car …

How is a 4x100 conversion dumb or pointless? Do you have any idea how hard rims are to find in 4x120? What’s dumb or pointless about rear discs?

I think you’ve got your s2ks confused. Mine is caged and supercharged

…And neg rep for that dickhead statement

4x100 conversion is the right move and a great upgrade. I’d build a set of RS’s for this if it was mine. Keep up the solid effort man. Watching this thread and hoping you leave fender mirrors.

There are so few ACTUAL builds on this forum…and ass clowns like above are the reason I refuse to post up my numerous projects.

Just found a set of front knuckles from a 75 civic wagon. BAM. Now i just need a second gen hub to put in them and it’s 4x100 all around. i am pumped about this find, these are very rare and i was worried i wouldn’t be able to find them

Dammit. I sold these a couple weeks ago. ☹

On the flip side, I have a carcass of a car that may be of use to scavenge from. 🙂
