I would like to introduce myself to the group. My name is Jose and i just acquired my 08 #512 GPW with 80,000 miles. Shes not a show car. She will be abused at the track. This will be my first ever build thread so please bare with me.

New to the s2000 communitt,but has been a Honda guy for sometimw with my 97 civic hatch back trackcar.

Hope to be able to document my version on the ultimate driving machine.

Congratulations on the purchase Ecko_3420, here's hoping you will continue to post as you upgrade this CR. Where are you located so that the CR Roll Call can be updated?

So last night was spent ordering parts need to get her to 100%. The ff parts were ordered:
1. Spark plugs
2.serpentine belt
3. Shin-etsu grease
4. Rear O2 sensor
5. Idler pulley and tensioner
6. Clutch master cylinder

I will be doing a light polish and ceramic coating for the exterior and cleaning up the interior as well. Any tips on how to clean the alcantara interior?

Paintless dent removal will also be scheduled within this month. Ill do a video for that.
