Jay, you're going to this... do they allow Jeep's on the track?

My car's been messed since Gingerman. MXs have been on wear bars for months

- Car hesitates/pulsates in VTEC. I think it's the 02 sensor.
- Tires bald, need balancing bad (waiting to put winter wheels on)
- Rotors are warped. They've been on for less than a year with 1 soft track event. Funk me.
- Front end suspension "clunk" under intensing driving. I think it's the f/r spring moving. I will probably have Tein SS coilovers (with EDFC) by spring.

How many km now? Need's a tuneup no doubt. Plugs/pvc/fuel filter/clean that cai filter

maybe a valve adjustment.

Excellent advice... I thought almost the exact same thing
CAI - I cleaned that, no dice.
Plugs - Ordered NGK iridiums this morning. My plugs should have 50k left thou.
PCV - Ordered this today also.
Fuel filter - Thought about this. It will be "plan B" if plugs & PCV don't fix.
Valve adjustment - Never thought of this. Think I need it at 117k?

I took my car to Acura last week. They hooked it up to the computer and got no error codes, accept for one which apparently didn't apply to the Type S (02 sensor). Pretty messed analysis considering my emisssions light was on a couple days earlier and my revs we jumping up and down at idle.

dude... DO the fuel filter... you have 117k on your car.

It's one of the most neglected cheap replacement parts you can get. And if you have hesitation I would suspect it to be the culprit

Maybe ask speedstar about the valves. I know the s2000 valves should be adjusted frequently.
