Default Looking to get an S2K checked out...reputable shop in NH?

Hey everyone i'm looking at an s2k in New Hampshire and want to get it checked out by someone who knows their stuff before i purchase. Only trouble is, i'm not from the area...actually never been to NH before. Anyone know of a good mechanic in the Hudson area?

Thanks in advance. Sorry if this is a duplicate thread, i searched and couldn't find anything.

Ballistic Motorsports in bow NH is the shop to go to. Scott's on here but I'd just give them a call... Usually 4+ s2ks from anywhere in the country in his shop at any given time.

Shop number: 603-856-8833

Just re-read the post, Scott is about 30 miles from Hudson give or take. If you absolutely need a shop closer granite state dyno is in Hudson and they're not bad however when they were tuning my car and a plug was found bad they called Scott for help diagnosing the misfire off the bat!

If you have a for sale add too the s.nh group isn't huge so there is a chance someone may know the car! Or are you moving this way and joining the ranks

Speaking of this, does anyone know the guy who keeps posting the S2000's in Hudson, NH?

Example 1
Example 2

Based on their condition it almost seems like they're coming out of insurance wreck buy-backs or something.

Kenta actually found the exact ad i saw on CL. I'm thinking about going to check out the MY03 GPW. I'm from MD, btw.

I searched the phone number listed and it leads me to a place called 809 Motorsports.

Definitely a little sketchy; seeing as half of their inventory is wrecked. Anyone know anything about these guys?

They probably just buy totaled or repossessed cars at auctions for cheap and resell to make a buck or two. I don't think it's sketchy, but these cars probably need a ton of work to get back into a good condition.


The 2003 Kenta posted looks like it has an exhaust from a Civic. lol
