thanks to all you guys for those info.
in fact I have registered for HPRE event memorial week end and will see after that.
To be honest with all of you my son is the one pushing me to buy a S2K.
So far I am more going toward a Miata.

But again no decision has been made
Stripping the vette to 2700lbs?? not sure
Stripping my Evo? this one I am 99% sure no
Buying a rear wheel drive light car and modify it? 70% chance.

As far as the mods you are talking they do not concern me.
On the vette I did the work myself and all engine parts has been replaced, from piston to oil pump, timing chain, heads, headers, drive pulley, clucth, flywheel, cam shaft. The block is the only part I kept.
I know that if I want 320Hp (260RWHP) I will need quite alot of mods.
As far as reliability it won't be a street car. I will build an engine for 2 to 3000 miles of hard driving

 

Miata would be a good choice for you also, but I prefer the S2000, I just think it's a better platform but I'm biased lol

 

Power: If you're going to stay NA, don't expect much. The bigger benefit of adding intake/exhaust/header is the weight reduction; between the three you can lose 60-90 lbs depending on your part choice. If you want real power, you'll need FI. It will be just fine under extended heavy load sessions with the right tune and proper cooling. The internals are for the most part forged from the factory.

Brakes: Stock is fine with fresh fluid and good pads, if you stay NA. Once you go FI, you may want to look into a BBK. This is a point of heavy debate. Remember, this IS still a relatively light car.

LSD: It comes stock with a Torsen. Upgrades can vary from 1500 on up.

Final Drive: Do you want it taller or shorter?

Suspension: Subjective, get what suits your preferences


Not mentioned, but Aero: S2k's get a bit scary at speed; aero will help lots, but you already know that

 

What year the S2K went from 2 to 2.4l

I will definitely go wit bigger brakes as I would like to go with wider tires if possible.

As far as the aero this is a good point. I did not know that but as you saying that I remember seeing S2K with rear spoiler.
Do not have this problem with the vette even at 180 and over

BTW there is no 2010 S2K Honda is not making them anymore???

 

If you are 6"4" you probably won't fit in an S2000.

 

US spec S2000s went from 2.0 to 2.2 in 2004. 2009 was the last year the car was produced.

 

never heard of a 2.4l anywhere, only a with a stroker kit????

 

sorry I mean 2.2l

yes I fit in a S2000 and in a miatta. But I do not fit in a lotuse elise

 

Yes you must buy S2000 because this car has a best performance record and a great feed back.
