Silentdancers car is a one off. there are very few like that and that doesn't define hellaflush as such.

Does it matter? It looks good, just needs different front tyres and it'll look spot on.

the picture is for people that doesnt know what 'hellaflush' is..

like i have said im not saying i dont like it, i think it looks really nice, but i think with a few changes it could look a lot better and more this 'hellaflush' etc style, not that you care what i think, but hay...

The rolling radius of the front tyres are identical to the rears, maybe the pictures make them look a bit larger.

Cheers for the comments so far

It's not that Rob, they just look too wide on the rims, the rears look fine, but in the pics, the fronts almost look as if there's some poke.

Probably 10mm less tyre will work.

Is this going to effect the way the car drives? i.e. on track it will be far from perfect?

I don't actually know, normally i have a massive list and stick to it but this i really don't know where to go, i don't want to ruin it.

I might get a spoiler of some sort, unsure what yet. only a lip type one for now not a big one yet.

Front bumper of some sort but again unsure as it costs nearly 1k for the one i want from america and i don't think its feasable really to buy that.

I honestly am stuck for ideas now

Not really, it's double wishbone so the suspension moves in an arc around pivot points on the chassis.

On a Civic, Corsa etc this wouldn't be to good for the handling without alot of other modifications like roll centre adjusters etc.

You can get all these things for the S2000 but there not paramount.

The grip and direction change is the best i've ever felt in a car.

Thats good then Rob, in my old age I'd be worried about stress on other components.
