Thread: why does honda get's the good stuff?

not cheap? Ever dealt with people from b20? ive been meeting the wrong honda guys. Every honda guys I have met are super cheap. Maybe I'm on the wrong site for dealing with honda guys.

S2000 owners are not civic owners guys.

^^^^ Ummm I dont know about that. Not every. Someone that that owns a white on that soo happens to have been left in my yard for 3 years rotting away originally got backed into by a truck and half the bumper ripped off. He took the insurance money from him and spent it and didnt fix the car. Couple months later the radiator cracked (common issue) and instead of fixing it he just kept adding water and overheated it multiple times to the point it blew the headgasket. I put a new headgasket on and he refused to spend the extra to have the head looked at and checked by the machine shop for warpage. So I put it together and found his tensioner seemed really weak (another common issue) he didnt want to replace it and said just put it back together. So ran good for a whole 2 months until it skipped time and bent valves, shady mechanic puts new valves in it and doesnt put one of the hoses back on right and it overheated again this time to the point the motor just seized. I take a look at it and the cams would not turn at all. Loosen the caps and they would spin. Took it to the machine shop and it was warped 4X the allowable limit.

So not all S2k owners dont mind spending money. Needless to say the guy was still paying on the car and it rotted in my yard, he sold the drivetrain out of it and several other parts and it rotted away still making payments on it. The pics you guys have seen with the white s2k in my yard. Yep thats his.

All of our manifolds are made from schedule 40 304L stainless steel unless you want something custom. This stuff is super thick which means it can carry the weight of a turbocharger. We have been using this material for the past 11 years and have learned quite a bit, so reliability is very high!

Dyno graphs for the test session.

Stock motor on E85 w/ a decent sized T3 framed Precision Turbo. Car ran out of fuel pump so it was not pushed any further.

Is the S2K shell for sale? Send pics if it is. My brother just happens to have a spare S2K motor and trans....hmmm possible road race car build

No he took it and I believe he is junking the car after he collects insurance money on it.

doh...there goes that idea.

The body itself was still in good shape, Except the top was rotted out. Interior had already been stripped for the most part except for dash and door panels basicly. All suspension and brakes and rear diff was still there. Clutch pedal and clutch master cylinder were gone, cluster, push button start and radio gone and harness cut for them. It would have taken a lot of work either way. Only use to someone doing a full out drag car or road race car that was gonna remove a majority of the stuff anyways. He was just stupid to let it get to that point. Why he couldnt just replace the radiator with a koyo or mishimoto is beyond me. He made enough money at the time to do it just blew it off like nothing was gonna happen.
