Default New s2000 owner (again)

Hey guys,
Just picked up my second s2000! I had one a few years back, sold it and have had a v35 skyline and a 350z roadster since. Today I finally got back into one of these beautiful cars and I couldn't be happier My circumstances and finances have made it possible for me to own 2 cars now, so the s2000 won't be a DD and will be the weekender it was always meant to be.



edit: As far as mods are concerned, I believe it has the following -
koni coilovers
aem cold air intake
hks extractor back exhaust
gmax 18's (might change)

Upcoming work will be - service and hopefully get valves adjusted to fix engine ticking, soft top replacement (glass instead of plastic).

Welcome mate!

If you're in Adelaide we're doing an S2000 cruise this Saturday 19 March. Meeting at 11am in the city. PM me or check out the thread for further details.

Could be good timing!

Cheers

Welcome back, be sure to check out the AUS S2K page on facebook as that gets more traffic these days then the traditional forum.

The previous owner said he changed the tct on the car, which is why I'm thinking valves need adjusting. He did mention he thought the ticking might be the cam guides but couldn't find more info on that attributing to a ticking noise on the web.

Cruise sounds awesome aus2000red, if I can I will definitely make it
