Default An introduction. Finally got the S2k i dreamed of.

About me
Hey Guys. I’m Ian. A little about me. I’m 39. I’ve been a Honda tech for over 13 years. Always admired the S2. But never thought I’d own one. That’s because back then I was a big boy. Over 350 pounds. So anytime I got to work on a S2, I couldn’t fit in it, close the door or feel like stuffing playdough back into the container.
Older I got, diabetes, 3 kids and life heading down hill for the worst, I decided to take control. I did the gastric sleeve, started working out, got healthy and decided I’m going to be around for the family. So now today I am 175lbs, half the weight of my heaviest. Fit as I can be and definitely can fit in a S2.

How I found my 04 S2
I serviced the S2 at our dealership it was bought from. Older gentleman. Religious with the maintenance. One day he decided to sell his S2 and one of the owners sons bought it from him. So I still saw the car and maintained it. So the new owner changed a few things. Added a nice stereo system, newer set of Ap2 wheels, ap1 deck spoiler, owned it for 3 years and added very little miles to it. Little over
3000 miles. So later in life. He having a baby on the way, house and needs to sell. I told him if he ever sells, hit me up. I’d buy it . Sure enough that time came. 04 with 68k on it.

What ive done to it since I owned it for about a month and 1000 miles.

Science of speed Hybrid sport clutch kit

Damn dude! You're like The Rock in that movie with Kevin Hart where he was a fatty in High School, and now he's, well he's The Rock. And a CIA agent.

Movie was called Central Intelligence.

Fat Rock
