An outsider could very well think that we are a group stuck in the “swinging sixties” a la Austin Powers.

I Love the Smell of Brake Pads in the Morning (Commute)
I’m late for work at least once a week, and it’s my car’s fault. This cannot be ascribed to any mechanical malady or intolerance of cold or inactivity. Rather, it is due to a simple duality. There are two ways to get from my apartment to my office – the direct route or, to paraphrase [...]
Speed Bumps: A New Owner’s Rough Start
Two cylinders. The third had died as I passed through the tollbooth, frantic to escape the freeway traffic with which I could no longer keep pace. Two clattering cylinders, just enough to limp into the first parking lot in sight, a rather dismal motel; any port in a storm. With a sinking heart and a [...]

It is time to get up early and go for a morning drive as stocky did in this Video of the Week. Especially if it is a sunny day, just get into the S2000 and push the engine start button. Wake up your senses and drive all day long!
Classic roadster, modern heart!
Over the ten years we’ve been blessed with the S2000, we’ve seen many crazy S2000 setups, from your “standard” forced induction S2000s to some interesting engine swaps, including the Supra 2JZ into our beloved roadster or an F20C into an old Datsun 510. Either F20C or F22C powered, our engine is a convenient solution for [...]
