I finally saw my S2000 today as I visited my friend who is storing it in his garage for me. Had to jumpstart her and let her run for a while.
Last time I sat in her was this past July. Pathetic, I know.

Ahhh what a nice day. Much nicer than yesterday.
Got a few maintenance things done on the S.
Bled the brake w/ the Motive Power Bleeder. At first I was doubtful but it came out great. Used Billman250's suggestion of RF, LF, LR, RR and the pedal is definately much firmer.
Regreased the slave cylinder where it meets the fork. The clutch feels much better and bled the clutch fluid as well. It is much more responsive.
Also while I was under the car I took a look around and noticed that my lower ball joints on both front wheels as well as the rear control arm bushings were dry rotted and seemed torn. No noticeable fluid so looks like something I will have to takle soon.
Hope you guys had a chance to take advantage of this nice weather.

That is just upsetting. Not to bash on anyone, and I am sure everyone feels the same about their S2K, but I personally thought this was one of the best S2000s in the area. It sucks it had to be put to rest by such an idiot.
