New here! My name is Todd. My brother owned a sebring 02 AP1, but I've been doing Toyotas for quite some time. I did my first F20C swap into a corolla over 5 years ago, which I didnt complete. And I just recently acquired another F20C for my 'new' OLLLLLD corolla, a 1980.


Funny thing was, the TE-AE chassis have all the same wheel bases, so all the parts from my AE86 swapped onto this sedan like it was meant to fit! but anyways, heres my car

I'm here to try and get my car to pass CA Bar, and make my car completely legitimate when I do this swap. I'm sure there are a lot of s2k gurus on here that can help me with evap and emissions control. After I pass CA bar, anything goes.

Hi all, just purchased a nice 2007 Red with 15,500 miles on it. I was thinking about buying a Corvette or a Miata but I checked out the S2000 and I had to have one! Back in the early 70's I owned a TR4a and a TR6 and I was thinking about getting one of them but decided against it.


One more thing, does anyone have a free download for the Service Manual?
Thanks,
BroBob

Hello s2ki, joined about a year ago, but never properly introduced myself. I'm a proud owner of an 04 rio yellow pearl/black interior stock s2000 with 93k miles which I picked up a little under two years ago. Always been into honda/acura cars which is all I've ever owned. First car was a 2nd gen. integra gsr followed by a 3rd gen. integra gsr(stolen) an rsx type-s(stolen) I stumbled across this forum doing a yahoo search on DIY timing chain tensioners which I found very helpful as well as a few other posts that came in handy... Think I found my home

Hello everyone, New to the site and it seems a lot different then some of the other forums (still trying to get used to the layout). I just recently bought an 01 berlina black and I'm loving it. I used to own a py type r and decided I wanted to upgrade to something better. The s2k is a lot different than the type r and a whole lot of fun to drive. I look forward to building my car and making it my own.

Hey everyone! Im Robert but my friends call me Rob. Im new here abviously and I will be an AP1 owner this year! I'm shooting for taking delivery some time in June, just in time for summer! All I need to do is save the rest for my down payment and sell off my '02 Accord Coupe and then I've got my dream car!

I will be attending Mira Costa College in the fall and finish up my AS Degree. My goal is to become a mechanical engineer preferrably in the automotive market. I love music and also love to detail cars. I currently work at a detail outfit in Mission Valley, so at least I get paid to do something I enjoy.

I live in San Marcos, so if anyone ever wants help with detailing and cleaning their cars don't hesitate to send me a message and I'll be happy to help.

Hi all,

I just purchased an '08 CR in blue. I figured I should join up on the forum here.

I'm a long time motorcyclist, but a year ago was hit by a Corvette, which made my wife highly uncomfortable with me riding. The CR is more or less my replacement for the bike, and is my daily driver but it still leans the wrong way in corners LOL.

I'm looking forward to becomming a better driver through autoX or track days.

I would upload a pic, but I'm not sure how. The car looks like all the blue CRs.

Just introducing myself to everyone. I own a 2002 BMW Z3 but have many friends who onw S2000's including a couple regulars here against whom I compete in SCCA Solo II STR class. While I have all the respect in the world for the S2000, I just can fit into the driver's seat as I'm 6'6" and 250. Here's a picture of my ride.

Hello to all...
I am a new S2000 owner since November 2010. I have avidly wanted one since 2004. I gave up my chance to own a silverstone 05' in 2008. I instead bought an 2008 Altima Coupe 2.5S. Well the best deal of a lifetime came up late in 2010. A 2003 S2000 with 11,000 miles on it. Formula Red, Black interior. All for the price of a trade with my Altima (which had 35,000 miles BTW) and $1,800. I'm not much for computer stuff but when i figure out how to upload photos i will. It's my daily driver so it's not in great shape after 3,000 miles but it was mint for being seven years old.. still had original tires. I am glad to be a part of the "brotherhood of the S"...
