I purchased a 2000 NFR AP1 in March 2013 with 34,000 miles on it. I stumbled onto this beauty while I was looking for a beater car to drive while my 05 RSX-S went under the knife for an all motor K24 build. Long story short, the RSX-S turned into my "beater" as soon as I brought the S2000 home. By the end of April 2013, I had Buddy Club RSD coilovers, a K&N FIPK, an eBay Tsudo N1 exhaust, and Enkei SBC RPF1s with Nitto NT05 255/40s. The car stayed this way for the summer of 2013. I bought an OEM Hardtop in December of 2013 from a fellow member. In early 2014, I bought a Radium Surge tank, Fuel Rail and AEM FPR from another fellow member. The car continued to stay this way throughout the summer of 2014 and into the Fall of 2014, when I traded my 2002 Ram in on a 2014 Ram, and decided that I no longer wanted my RSX-S, because I had a brand new truck to drive. A massive partout of my RSX-S began which ended up paying for every cent of my Turbo build. Black Friday rolled around and I gathered the majority of the parts needed for my build. At this time, I had also sold my Buddy Club RSDs, purchased a set of Fortune Auto 500s, and purchased a V2 Kpro from yet another fellow member and had sent it in for a V4 upgrade.

The Day I bought it:





I'm sure there are some things I am forgetting, but that is everything I can think of off the top of my head. The Car is still a work in progress. I made 452WHP/290WTQ (Corrected to 470/324 IIRC) at ~14PSI (maxed BC duty) with what I consider a Conservative tune; 14* of timing and 10.9-11.1 AFRs. Also on a fairly low reading Dyno at Quantum Raceworks in Ravena, NY. I am planning to finish wire tucking the car this winter by relocating the battery, and possibly relocating the ABS unit. I also need to have where the battery sits repainted, for the original Honda battery leaked on the original owner about a month before I bought the car while in storage. I am also trying to source a 3" Dual Exhaust. How the Car Currently Sits:

Turbo Manifold made by Quantum Raceworks. Mishimoto Oil cooler kit did not fit with the intercooler, so I had to make custom brackets and lines. S2Carbonworks A/C lines.

Nice setup!

Looking good! I wouldn't recommend using that fuel pressure regulator, get a good external regulator.

I also just mounted a mishimoto oil cooler and have it the same way you mounted it upside down. Have you had any problems with it being mounted upside down?
