    Great video - thanks for covering such a well-known but under-reported on JDM suspension supplier.
    I've always wondered why Ikeya don't offer more rubber-mounted replacements - seems based on their answers the heim/ rose joints are "stronger" but I felt their answer was a bit weasely in that they didn't talk about durability and whether it means increased servicing.

    Maybe aside from Ikeya, visit the other legendary S2000 tuners in Japan. J's racing Touge Demon King would look nice side by side with your S2000. also that Top Fuel S2000RR is worth a visit!

    Back in the days, before companies like Wisefab came into play and dominated pro drift car suspension parts suppliers, Ikeya Formula was THE aftermarket suspension arms to have. I was on an S-Chassis forum, and the saying goes: "You get Ikeya Formula just so you can say you have Ikeya Formula"

    Soba noodles are delicious, I usually make them with bokchoy and wafu dressing. Probably not the most traditionnal way of eating it, but it's so good.

    had the ikeya "sequential" shifter which are cable actuated back in late 2000s on my GDB sti . gave me tons of issues and really hard to dial in accurate shifting into the gears. Left me stranded quite afew times. eventually gave up and went back to H pattern.

  • @styledliving

    kinda wish they’d still make sequential shifters for more recent models and even other models like the zzw30 mr spyder.

    Thanks Albo for featuring these top products on here. I’ve been eyeing on these since earlier this year but I haven’t had anyone to see their verdict of this product on their S2000
