What else is on the list? I feel like I have some personal investment in the longevity of your car!! It is the oldest S2000 that I know.

AP1. I gave up on using the suction cup lapping tools long ago. I use a cordless drill on the stem at low speed to lap them.

Right now I'm eating a muffin I should probably not be eating...I'm at work, but not working....

As far as our Honda, it is being driven in the winter, sporting new inexpensive wheels and meaty snow tires. The odometer is now reading 99K! The car will be making a trip to the body shop in the spring to remove one crease in the rear quarter that is driving Rick nuts. He will likely get the hood painted too.

Our world is most exciting.

Yup, that's the method. Just don't go too far!

Looks like both our Suzukas need a little face lift. Not us though. We'll be young and beautiful forever!!
