I was looking over my new issue of Car and Driver. Changes for the 2002 S2000 were listed to include:
1. upgraded sound system (I take to mean relocation of the tweeters as previously described)
2. Glass rear window (a real plus I think)
3. Leather shift knob (I like the metal one)
4. "beefier transmission"
5. changed console.

does anyone know what the substantive changes made to the transmission were?

Cheers
