Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

First off, that's not repair, its mods.

Second, this isn't a Civic. Unless you do your research, and have some very specific goals in mind, doing that work will result in spending a lot of money to make your car slower, and way less reliable.

What needs to be repaired? Getting more out of this car NA is really difficult and while there are some examples of it they tend to be fully custom built engines. Most aftermarket valve train seems to hurt reliability rather than help. I would spend a lot of time looking through the NA section before wasting my money. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-na...ted-forum-213/

Put down your phone. Borrow a real computer (even a Mac) and tell us what's going on. If you "opened" the engine (somehow) you may have caused serious problems.

But until you stop typing with your thumbs we'll never know.

Why was it consuming oil? Did you diagnosis that? Is the bottom end ok?

Get off of your pedestal you’re not going to help regardless of how clearly they type.
