Hi all,

I'm the former owner of www.purehonda.com a great site till I sold it in 2001. I've been driving a 2000 Accord since my head on accident in a JDM 93 Teg. After therapy on my left foot esp ankle I'm able to drive manual again. Driving by the dealership I saw this beauty of an s2000 at 2003 will less than 10,000m. I did a lot of background check on it. Found out it had one accident and coincidentally the bodyrepair shop that did the work was also a friend of mine. Who told me it was only the right door a minor hit and they told the owner that they could repair the door however the guy replaced the door.

Also check the dealer so happens my cousin works there so he gave me info on the log as per servicing etc. All in all it's a steal of a deal. Comes with 18x8 and 18x8 rims huh!!! However, the stock rim are included.

I get the on Friday and it seems like forever! In the mean time I've been searching forums etc. My 1st mod will be to sell those non-stagger 18 rims and get som 17x7x5F and 17.8.5R wheels and with tires.

Look forward to LEARNING here. So my 1st two questions:

1) As a new owner what are the must read threads at the forum. Esp since I've new to RR driving.

2) I'm 6'3" it's a little tight in there any other tall owners out there? Any tips on room? haha

Thanks,

Hayden

P.S. i'll post pics soon.

 

Welcome

1)the AP1's seem to gobble up a lot of oil..check it regularly.check under the hood section.

2)if you search around they have some seat mods to lower it a bit.




peace

 

Thanks. I've seen this quite a but. AP1 & AP2
What is this short for? (2.0 and 2.2 displacement s2000's?)

 

Welcome Hayden!

I'm also very new to the S2K world and Ive learned ALOT just reading on this site.

Unfortunately my S is parked away for the winter.

Can't wait to see pics of your car.

 

YES 00~03 2.0L are AP1 and 04+ 2.2L are AP2.these are US specs,these may vary depending on country.

 

Thanks for the friendly welcome all! My 1st mod is going to be the lower seat rail:

In hopes the is lowers the stock seat enough that my legs have an improvement in room

Not sure if anyone can give feedback on this. My s200 is JDM right hand drive. I'm being told that most turbo kits made for the US s2k's wont work with my s2000 without fabrication. Is this true?

 

never looked in the engine bay of a jdm S2k...sorry...I have no idea if it'll fit or not.




my engine bay.if your looks like mine then it should fit.I have a Vortech S/C in mine.

 

Welcome, Hayden.

Be sure to check out the Introduction forum FAQ thread, which should answer a lot of your questions. The S2000 Talk forum has a good FAQ as well.

 

Congratulations. Silver on black is a classy combo.
