Engine upgrades
Hello all,
I have a 2003 Silverstone, with a 3 previous owner 6800 mile a year average. So its been a garage car from the history of it.
I am looking for some advice on upgrading my S2000 for a more long haul approach. I don't plan on doing any sort of force induction because the car is fast enough for a CAR, my CBR1000rr keeps me in tune. That being said I want to improve anything I can without breaking the bank.
Belts, hoses, pulley's, anything I can brace, or support with new engine parts are my only concern now, more or less wanting to bullet-proof the engine. (I know that is probably not the right wording) Anything that I can put on the Car without opening it up, for now at least..
The car has 74,000 miles on it and I have already replaced Engine, Diff, Transmission fluids in the past few weeks.
I'm still actively searching on this forum for idea's, And any advice or insight is appreciated!
Thanks.

Nothing really. Sounds like your good to go. You can check the clutch master cylinder if it's leaking. Check for leaks inside the cabin, next to your clutch pedal. I can't imagine what else the car will need.
Ingalls engine torque damper.
Billman's or equivalent upgraded TCT.
Top shelf synthetic fluids changed with relentless frequency.
AP2 valve intake retainers/cotters (if the AP1's are cracked) with a proper valve adjustment (intake .008"/exhaust .010").
Don't overrev on an incorrect downshift.
Clutch fluid changes regularly.
