Spoon USA Spoon Damper Kit (Fix Type) - S2000 AP1

 

Honda parts and Showa dampers are built for reliability and longevity. Most aftermarket coilovers are built for fashion and made from cheap, brittle and/or fragile aluminum parts.

 

Are these shocks sold just from Showa without the yellow paint tax? Or are these exclusively from SPOON?

 

Even if they are, not rebuildable. So in 5-10 years when wear out, what ya gonna do? These prob won't be avail then. What else will be? Maybe nothing new.

Buying something that can be rebuilt, by generic shops (not by original maker only, they might go belly up), using generic parts, not S specific parts, seems like smart, long term choice.

 

Budget ?
Koni SRT are less £

Who are you asking?

If me, Spoons are fine, but if I can get the same damned Showa's without the Spoon yellow paint for a bit less, then that's a bonus. I did some light googling but didn't find a definitive answer.

Absolutely worth every penny.
If you can save up for these I'd recommend it.

 

I am new to this and am trying to get information about my year 2000, S2000. I have had it since 2009, garage kept and had zero problems until a few days ago when it cranked and cranked and wouldn't start. I had it towed to a shop I use (they are not necessarily Honda specialists) and after a week they still haven't found the problem. They think it might have to do with the security system and if so possibly also a faulty party which is discontinued. Any suggestions??? Thanks

 

Crank no start is usually easy to narrow down to spark, ignition, or compression.

This shouldn't be rocket science to get to that point. Only then do you start thinking about what components might be at fault.

If they haven't already figured which of these it is, after 15 min, let alone a week, they are beyond incompetent.

This isn't a Honsa thing, its the past 100 years of troubleshooting internal combustion. The most basic of basics.

Did they already get to this point? Which of these 3 is it?

 

Thanks for the rapid reply, ironically after I sent the request for info/help the shop called me. The S2000 still is not running but they indeed checked and ruled out all the obvious things. Although I didn't notice it before I had it towed in, the said the security light on the radio is flashing. They "think" it is a part related to that system,but they also thing it may be a discontinued part as well so they are looking for sources for this security system related part. That's all I know at this time.
