Default Reformed Honda Owner

Hi all, names John from Australia.

recently picked up my grand prix white ap1 s2000 and I am loving it!
i have traditionally been a turbo fan (which implied a disinterest in hondas), having only ever owned turbo cars (a wrx, 2 x s15 silvias and a falcon turbo we have in aus which comes standard with a gt35/40).

I decided i would try na for a while, and it was a toss between teh s2k and 350z, however as a friend of mine has the z, i decided to go with the s2k, and have not regretted it at all (at time of writing i have owned the car for 5 days lol).

i did a 2000km round trip to another state here and the car is simply beautiful to drive, the motor is amazing for a factory tuned setup (car does have a spoon cai snorkel but is otherwise standard). the chassis is rigid and it gives you so much confidence.

anyway here are some pics, please note car is very dirty becuase i have only just got back from my road trip and the weather has been quite poor here (also i know there is a dent on the drivers side door,:'( )







John

Congrats on the new ride. You'll definately appreciate the reliability and you have already discovered how much fun the car is to drive. GPW on black and red is a hard to find combo. Enjoy your ownership. Welcome to the boards

Welcome!!

If you ever do want to go turbo, Mase Engineering has done a RHD setup that put out 600+whp with a gt35...stock internal motor too since it is all forged in there.
