The net amount of ride height increase depends upon the age and use of the vehicle, wheel offset, and numerous other factors. Stated torsion bar ride height in- creases are based upon factory specifications. If the torsion bars were “cranked up” at some point in the past, expect a corresponding reduction in overall height increase with the new torsion keys. Note that torsion bars, like any other spring, are subject to fatigue and sagging over time. Also, torsion bars have different ratings depending on how the vehicle was equipped from the factory. In some cases, installing heavier rated bars (which can be purchased from a dealer) may be the only solution to regaining ride height lost from adding heavy aftermarket accessories, such as a winch bumper or snow plow.

Honda S2000 Seat Belt Lock Installation
November 3rd, 2009 · No Comments
This product is to be used ONLY on the Honda S2000 and is intended to provide increased driver support when using the stock lap belt and shoulder harness. It is NOT to be used as a replacement for competition belts or at any event where 4 or 5-point restraint systems are required. This product uses an electro-magnet to activate the factory inertia-sensing mechanism built into the seat belt assembly. It does not alter the factory restraint system in any way and has no effect on the seat belt retractors or air bag system. It simply activates the “tilt” mechanism built into the seat belt, the one that normally kicks in only when you corner or brake very hard. Modifry’s Seat Belt Lock is relatively easy to install and can be quickly removed, leaving no trace it was there.
