Are you sure you've got enough gauges on your dash?

 

I much prefer the UK specs.

 

what are the exact UK specs? i did a little searching, but didn't find them.

 

They're the U.S. specs with an extra -.5 degree camber. That would give you -1.0 front and -2.0 rear.

 

bill... when you gona meet me at the beaver? test that thing out.

 

oh thanks! so toe and caster are let alone?

 

Just wondering,

Why are the U.S. Specs different from the U.K. Specs?

I know they change the handling, but why would Honda want the car to handle differently in the two markets?

3312DC.......when is the next track event i could meet you at in our area?? I am finally ready to get it out now....and see what it can do.

The most important part about the UK spec is not the camber change its the rear toe in change.....it totally tames the oversteer problem the s has.....i think i may relax my front sway bar setting a knotch now.

When introduced in Britain a number of British magazines complained about the S2000s handling characteristics. In 2001, Honda UK pounded S2000's round MIRA's test track for several days trying alternate settings. In Britain the spec
