I am sorry to say, but I am getting rid of the S2000. Too much work to do, and not enough time to even enjoy the car. I put a listing on ebay, so I thought I would put it in here also.

Starting the bidding at $32,000.00

This is Chris Barnes (cjb80) old car. Since I have bought it, we (chris and I) have installed a new GT35R Duall BB turbo for faster spooling, an new 04 fully cryo-treated tranny, and a oil cooler for better engine safety. This is his original description of the car down below.

chrisdrivesafastcar.com

"My original goal was not to race the car, but rather to produce 500 rwhp on pump gas. In that time, I have developed the modifications to the car to produce huge power numbers, and have recently reached my goal. I have poured years of experience and research and development in to producing the machine that it is today.

I have pulled out all of the stops. In it's current form, it will support in excess of 700 rear wheel horsepower with racing fuel. Since the cover story of Turbo Magazine (Aug 2004), a new motor, fuel system and turbo setup has been built and installed into the car. The latest build allows for maximum flexibility in turbo sizing, exhaust systems, and still maintains the A/C lines, which were previously sacrificed.

The turbo setup is configured for maximum power, and the power band surges at 5000 rpm. The pull of this car is amazing, and the sound is unbelievable. The car revs very quickly, and is very easy to drive considering the power output.

The car was painted with the factory color to make sure that it looked perfect for the Turbo Magazine shoot in early 2004. Since then, the car has only seen a minimum of road time, and always kept in a garage. This car has never been in an accident, and the exterior is in very good condition. It has just over 27,000 miles on it."

Chris built a hell of a car. I hope someone buys this and keeps it in Florida.

I'm thinking the same thing... BOOM

 

Actually, the original rev limiter was set at 10500 rpm. There was a bit of valvetrain noise, so we opted to lower it to 9700 rpm just to be safe. Never had any problems with the redline.... Dynoed the car countless times to get a perfect tune.
