Alright well ive been looking into an S for awhile got alot of information on them and such just had a few questions. The car in question is a 2000 with 42000 miles on it, I drove it today and it is my first s2000 that ive driven just had a few questions about the experience

1. How nothcy should the shifting be?? It wasnt super notchy but defiantly alot notchier then my gti which is expected some just wondering.
2. What should it idle at if its cold outside and after its warmed up??

Thanks Chris

 

umm im not sure about the 2000 s2k but my07 s2k idles in the cold at about 2k rpm and 1k after warmed up

 

alright the 2nd question thanks

 

synchros on the MY00 and some MY01 are a weak point, so that may be the problem. my ap1 idles at 1k rpm or just (one bar) below it .

 

Guess i should go test drive some other ones and see what its like

 

i think there was a TSB on the synchros, so the owner could've fixed that already. but yes, test drive some other ones.

 

If there was a tsb and they werent fixed will i be able to have them fixed still or no??

 

TSB's that are out of warranty are done as goodwill only. if you approach a local honda dealership with it, they may do it if you sound like you'll be a returning customer for service. it just depends; no guarantees.

 

Thanks for the info really appreciate it
