Vehicle description
The time has come. I am selling my Atom 2 to make space for other toys.
Built in January of 2007, this is one of the very few Atom 2"s that was manufactured with the K20A Type-R engine/transmission. Screams and pulls to 8,500 RPM! Brammo purchased these crate K20A engines from Spoon Sports Europe!
I barely use it, and it still only has 4,500~ miles on it. Fully California legalized with a CA BAR sticker on the chassis , smog exemption, CA plates, and has current registration.
This Atom was spec"d with the Alcon race brake package, and individual Recaro sliding seats - the two must have options!
Upgrades:
I"ve had the car dyno tuned by Jei at Blacktrax (a licensed and well known Hondata tuner), and the car now has great mid range torque and more power across the entire rev range, while not sacrificing any reliability. He also unlocked the anti-knock and some other useful features of the ECU that were not being utilized.
The suspension bellcranks have been upgraded with Palatov Motorsport units. These are much stronger and have a better motion ratio than the factory units. They were installed by TC Designs, and TC Designs performed a custom alignment afterwards.
TC Designs also made a custom exhaust system for the Atom, featuring a Borla muffler, flex pipe, modified header, and detachable angled "Laguna baffle" on a v-band clamp for low dB track days. You can go full throttle past the sound booth with no problems.
Installed is also a reverse facing camera with a screen on top of the dash, so that you can see traffic and pedestrians behind you while reversing or driving.
And the biggest upgrade of all: Custom Ohlins TTX double-adjustable coilovers ! These are a set of custom built $7000 coilovers from Ohlins USA for the Atom. I recently had them rebuilt by PSi, the West Coast licensed Ohlins service center, and had them revalved for less extreme spring rates (the same rates used by the 3.5R Atom in the UK that come with these coilovers). These absolutely transformed the handling of the car on the street and at the track. The factory Koni"s made the car feel like it had zero suspension travel, whereas these Ohlins have excellent dampening and feel even over rough road surfaces.
Includes:
-One spare set of wheels for your track day rubber.
-Pair of cool looking open face helmets with pull down shields.
-Factory Koni coilovers that were replaced with the Ohlins.
-Spare new set of brake rotors and pads (custom Hawk setup).
- Continental Cargo enclosed trailer ! This is the smallest enclosed trailer that fits the Atom like a glove. Interior has been customized to include storage for your gas can, basic tools, chairs, a fold down table, fire extinguisher, and a tire rack for the spare wheel set. Also includes a load leveling and anti-sway hitch setup. And a spare tire for the trailer. Perfect for hauling the Atom around to track days.
Note: Please contact me with any questions you may have regarding the Atom, I will respond in a timely fashion. Due to the nature of the vehicle, it is sold AS-IS, with not warranties of any kind, including those of fitness for a particular purpose and merchantability.
