Every car in the HawkDown Gallery tells a story — not just of performance, but of purpose.
This week we’re featuring a clean and focused track build that defines balance and precision: Bryan’s AP2 Honda S2000, a setup that blends reliability, style, and intent on every lap.

Built for Balance
Bryan’s AP2 is all about control and connection. The Real 442 2-Way coilovers keep the car planted through corners while maintaining precise feedback, and the bright silver CE28s wrapped in V730s deliver consistent grip lap after lap. The carbon hood and AeroCatch setup keep the front end light and locked in — a simple, functional upgrade that reflects the car’s no-nonsense approach.
Inside, every touch point serves a purpose. The Recaro Pole Positions and Dogfight harnesses lock the driver into a focused cockpit, while the Momo Monte Carlo and HawkDown Teardrop bring the tactile feel that defines every proper S2000 build.
Driven with Purpose
Bryan’s build embodies what HawkDown stands for — precision, simplicity, and intent. There’s nothing extra here, just the right parts working together. A setup capable of consistent 2:06s at Buttonwillow and ready to chase sub-2 with aero dialed in.
It’s clean. It’s functional. It’s everything we love about the S2000 platform.
