Hey everyone,

I guess il start with some background info....
Im 17 and im from Toronto, Ontario (Canada). My dad recently gave me his S2k which i have dreamed about.
In, 2000 when Honda went big in F1 they have a ceremony dedicated to them and two S2000's were the show cars. They had all of Hondas sponsors on them. They are limited addition and there are only three made. One belong to (im not %100 sure) one of the very high head's of Honda (He spoke at the ceremony), another in Vancouver (the last time i checked) and the other one now in my possession.
My dad h worked for Acura for 3-4 years and he has worked for Honda for over 20 years and Managed and Owned several Dealerships. He is very well known in Canada. He's been to meeting with special important chinese people that came to Canada lol, im not sure who but he has some pictures...

EDIT* The S2K is a Model of the Jordan EJ10



Anyways, here is the S2k (now mine) and my dad's NSX












Both car's never come out in the winter or when it rains. Ironically in one of the pictures of the s2k it has just rained. Both cars and stored at another house in storage with heaters in the garage. The cars are kept in mint condition. The s2k comes out in the summer but the NSX never sees the road. It comes out 1-2 times a year.


First of all im planning to get rid of those rusty break calipers and rotors.
-I want to slam it
-Install comptech's turbo kit
-Clear headlights
-Tires/Rims

Ive been stalking the S2ki forums for about a year now...Reading up on everything i need to know.

One question on my mind right now...
I want to slam my s2k. What do you recommend. Im thinking of the tein's. And im not sure what tucking means... Im pretty sure it means not having your tires stick out. Oh and rolling fenders...?


Thanks a lot

P.S If anyone could find information about the other EJ10 S2k Pm me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome, Just an FYI I don't think comptech makes turbo kit for our cars. Superchargers they do.

Welcome!

Post up in the Ontario forum to say hello. Pretty good crew up there...

You might post up in the Modifications forum for more advice on the mods you are considering.

As far as Comptech...they went out of business and the name was bought by a road-race team. They aren't making products like they used to...mostly built motors and race cars. You might be able to find a used Comptech supercharger...as mentioned, their is no Comptech turbo.

There are other forced induction options available...take a look in the Forced Induction forum for some ideas. InlinePro makes a decent turbo kit...Vortech and Science of Speed offer superchargers similar to the Comptech style.

BTW...unless you have been racing karts for a good bit of your life, you should really consider taking up autoxing or take some Hi-Performance Driver Education courses. The s2k is already very unforgiving to drivers who don't have years of driving experience...adding a 100hp just adds to the danger.

Welcome to the forums! :-)

FYI, CT-Engineering is the new aftermarket division of Comptech. Same products, different owner and name.
