Hi everyone,

My name is Wullie and I'm from Kilmarnock in Ayrshire. I've been looking at S2000's for a while now. I can see it now being my next car.

I've joined the board to try and answer some questions I have about them.

I have came from up the ranks in the Jap car scene starting out with my 185hp/175ftlb 1.3 Turbo Glanza V:



^^Was on its "Winter" Wheels in this pic I had 15" Wed Sport TC-05's on it through the summer.

I currently drive a 300hp UK Nissan 200sx.



Its great, mega fast, does the "sideways" thing well which is what I love. However reliability can be an issue. I've had it a year and the engine has been in bits twice so far

Anyway, look forward to joining up and getting me a S2000 soon enough.

Welcome to the site. Honda = Reliability. I haven't had one singe issue since new. Look into a purchase, you won't be disappointed. As mentioned, you should go over to the UK forum and try to meet up with some local owners. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showforum=25

What is a Glanza?? That's Japanese? I've never seen that car before.

Anyway, welcome to s2ki.com. Enjoy the hunt.

Chazmo it is a JDM Toyota Starlet. They come stock with 133hp from a 1.3 DOHC Tubrocharged engine. Bucket loads of fun from a 900Kg chassis

I'll take a look over at the UK area of the board.
