Default F20C/S2000 Book/Guide

Good evening everyone

I have found the perfect s2000 and should be collecting it within the next week its not my first honda (i had an ep3) but i have never really been clued up on the technical side of the car or the engine or any engine in fact and im not sure if i will but if i get the modding bug i would like to know as much as possible about the car before i do anything, and generally would like to learn about the car i own.

I loved my Ep3 but found them way to popular and very easy to drive so im really looking forward to getting an s.

oh and this forum is very helpful and interesting.

Thanks

All you need to know is in FAQ's on the main board and visiting Under the Hood regularly also helps.

The S is not as easy to drive, especially not easy to get the best out of it. Don't rag it like a Civic when you first start driving it or you may end up in a hedge! I don't mean to scaremonger, but a 240bhp RWD with no driver aids (bar ABS) needs a little more care and sympathy to drive, especially in the mixed weather we're having at the moment.

But take care, and have fun! And get the roof down on the those cold sunny days! (after you've let the vinyl roof warm up!)

No No NO, hide the chequebook, it's like maltesers, once you start you have to keep going till them till there's none left.
I came to S2 from an ep3, you will love it.
