Default S2000 fitment for Fluidampr

We put in a call to Fluidamper 5 months ago and worked with them to measure, design and test a Crank damper that offers better vibration protection than OEM for our highly stressed motors

S2000s that are Track or Auto-crossed frequently spend a lot of time at elevated RPMs where crank deflection & vibration are at their greatest. Elevated RPMs accelerates engine wear and an aftermarket crank damper is simply better protection for your engine and reduces engine wear similar to using synthetic oil. Also, the OEM crank damper is part that gets worn out and needs to be replaced like brake pads or your clutch. It is designed to dampen crank vibrations by turning them into heat. Heat is not a friend of rubber and overtime it will wear it down reducing its effectiveness. Older S2000s should replace this part especially if it has been tracked a bit.

Every built motor we build will have this damper installed it!!

Viscous type Crank Damper
  • Inertia Ring suspended in silicone gel in side damper hub vs Bonded to hub via rubber O-ring like OEM or other aftermarket dampers
  • Silicone is more heat tolerant than rubber & will not need to be rebuilt/replaced during life of your engine
  • Wider range of harmonic damping due to free floating design, rubber designs have narrower range of damping
  • Reduced Engine wear on bearings, timing chain & valvetrain (crank vibration shake everything attached to and run off it)
  • Noticeably smoother engine at idle and typical driving conditions, valvetrain is quieter as well
  • Possible HP gains due to "weightless effect" read here for details
S2000 Fitment
  • Designed off OEM damper, not modified K series damper
  • OEM diameter so it drives all accessories at Honda designed speeds
  • Should fit Kraftwerks Supercharger as it uses OEM Crank Damper
  • We are waiting on bolt patterns from Vortech, Comptech and SOS to verify fitment
Please post comments or thoughts..

I have a new Vortech pulley and used SOS pulley if you want to take bolt pattern measurements & check fitment.

We will take you up on that. Give me some time to figure out if we are going to ship it to Fluidampr or Endyn.

Thank you for being a fried of URGE designs. How are the brakes doing?

OK, let me know and you can borrow them. The brakes holding up strong as usual. I'm done for the season, so until next year... Still haven't had a chance to try out a higher U pad in the rear.

I am interested in the FI header you're working with ASP though

ok, time for the stupid question...


does the inertia ring inside the dampener actually rotate or is it in a fixed state?
