No that is not Brian Proctors house it is mine. That is my Silver Turbo'd S2000 and my Yellow 2JZ Turbo'd S2000. Funny how there are so many people talking smack about this car and well, first of all they don't have one and secondly it would destroy their S2000's. If you can beat this car then I have respect for you, if your car can't then don't talk smack. I don't care what you say about Fifty Fifty Racing but don't talk smack about me, I haven't talked bad about anyone on this board.

Hmmmm,

Maybe I've missed something here. Who is talking smack? And in what way?

If the the Yellow S2K in Mulder's post is yours and also has the shifter, then well turbo or not people are simply taking the piss on such a poor job (and idea).

I mean If i wanted an auto in mine (and I don't) I'd make the shifter that was going in was a little more appropriate then some manky T-Bar auto from some other hunk of sh!t

Poor idea and craftsmanship.

But hey if you like it and it goes hard.....

I just have one question... why make the car an automatic? I am not bashing you, but I honestly would like to know why you chose an automatic for this car? Why not something like BMW's SMG?

1. Why an auto?
2. Why are the interiors on all the S2J swaps we see videos for always trashed?

I might be interested in an engine swap for my car because I love the idea of wads of torque in a body as sexy as the S2000.

But I'm not gonna even consider it if my interior has to look hacksawed and duct-taped with aftermarket gauges screwed down in front of a nonfunctional stock dash.

I'll consider the swap impressive and worthy if you can ever show us one where the stock dash works with the new engine and the interior looks finished. And it has a manual stick.

Not holding my breath, though.
