I had 3 I have one right now. The 20B is a upgrade, like you having a turbo kit for your car.

going to the piston engine, boxer engines cancel the vibration out since they go out in opposite direction, so like I said just becuase is a piston motor it is not prone to vibration.

The S2000 is not a raw sports car either, a Corvette, Porsche GT2, etc. Those can be classified as raw sports cars.

Can you stay on topic here? I own a car w/ a flat-6 engine so I am aware of its vibration level. Least you forget, the question in hand is S2000's inline-4 engine. You faulted the vibration in the S2000 on the engine mounts and that softer mounts would be the rememdy. I told you the culprit lies on the nature of the high rev'ing piston engine instead, which again in this case an I-4, not boxer engine. If you don't believe me, fire up your 2 cars side-by-side and pop their hoods. Then come back and tell me if the piston engine in your S2000 is creating much more vibration than the rotary engine. Feel free to repeat this test with other cars including those with boxer engines. If you are still not convinced by then, post a statement on the RX-8 forum that "piston engines have same vibration level as rotary engines." Then sit back and enjoy the laughters.

And you would classify a Vette as raw sports car but not S2000? Perhaps you equate raw as HP, but that would be a misinterpretation of the term. Whatever...

I'm terribly sorry. You've unfortunately mistaken me for someone who gives a flying fvck.

Lack of words? Nope. I found just the right ones.

To get any kind of rating from a panty waist the fvcking likes of you? Big whoopty-doo!

Luck? Not when dealing with jerk-offs like you.

Oh, BTW .......................

You asked for it. Now you can't take it? No, I found exactly the right words.

What's sad is that having some troll coming over here from the RX8 forum, has caused misunderstanding amongst ourselves. This individual doesn't even have the balls to stand up for his own car (RX8) and has to come here and use a third car to bash ours. He openly admits to flaming us and openly invites flaming back, but like a baby, can't take it.
Maybe we should all go over to the RX8 forum and not even use an S2000 as a comparison to bash their cars. Maybe we should use the same troll-like sleeze-bag tactic and use a Vette C6 as a comparison to the RX8 and give him full credit for giving us the idea. But then, are we that big of a bunch of schmucks? I hope not. I would have PITY on him but I'm not yet done with SCORN.
