      I've been wanting to shoot my shot on this for years but as wreckless or whatever as it seems, I waited, I went to school, got my degree, job my job, got my experience, saved my money and I just kinda realized life goes on and there isn't a perfect time to make the switch - all things considered, I'm 100% happier, all I gotta do now is make a living (:

    Sounds like it was worth it. I have a bunch of friends in CA (I live in MA)...I’m fascinated how people thrive off of even $85k (admittedly he seems young) in CA. Sounds like he made the right gamble.

    Wow! Quit his job in the Bay making 85k a year which is pretty much below the poverty line in regards to the Bay areas cost of living. Definitely ballsy but I'm assuming you live at home right? If not, than that's nuts because living out of an S2k would be so uncomfortable 🙃. Coming from an s2k lover and previous owner of 5-S2000s myself, the least you could do is pop some VTEC for your reveal my man! Tisk Tisk.... then maybe I can see following you. Until then no lol 😆. It's the least you can do. Stock Vtec from inside the car is actually pretty dope (crisp audio). Give the people what they want!

I've been stuck at a soul-sucking job for 21yrs now and have daydreamed about doing what you're doing with my 06 s2k...especially now that I'll be moving to San Diego some time this summer. If I didn't have a family to provide for, I'd do it too!! Good luck👍

      It's the blingy, more kitsch way around having stiffer engine mounts... and even for those, I don't like going with durometers too much stiffer than stock, unless it's a race car. Just sayin.

      And if the engine damper is actually stiff enough to hold the engine from vibrating or twisting, that's like having solid engine mounts at that point. Except with the latter, you're at least holding the engine at a position where it's designed to be held at, not at the top of the head or wherever. And if the damper isn't stiff at all, then what's it really doing? At the end of the day, engine and tranny mounts are the more proper solutions IMO.
