Proud new s2k owner!
Picked up my first s2000 this past weekend from Shreveport, Louisiana.
It's 00 silverstone with 78k miles.
Has blown headgasket which should be fixed before next weekend
Aem cai
T1R header with hks exhaust
Skunk2 lowering springs
Stage 1 race clutch.. Forget the brand
Slashed top but came with a brand new one in box!
Red/black int with black seats
Front bumper has a crack because of a hitch :/
Car wasn't very well taken care of but now will be!
Bought for $4500 cash
I'm 19 and I love this car already, sitting in it is amazing and can't wait to drive it!!
Will post pics later when I get home.

Re: Proud new s2k owner!
Congrats. Be sure to upgrade to AP2 keepers/retainers while you're replacing the headgasket.

Re: ► ~~ Official Introduction/I'm new here Thread ~~
Been a lurker for awhile so thought I'd finally introduce myself. I'm on a few other s2000 forums as well
Picked up my '03 AP1 GPW late summer 2011 and went unmolested all summer (except for a T1R/Alex ****)
Plans leading up to spring/summer 2012
- AP2V1 wheels + spacers
- Buddy Club N+ coils
- replace clutch
- AP1 front lip
- OEM rear lip spoiler
- Exhaust - T1R 70em dual or Spoon N1
- Spoon Rear Diffuser
That should be it for 2012......so they always say lol

Re: ► ~~ Official Introduction/I'm new here Thread ~~
Let me first start off by saying I don't own a S2k at the moment. I have always admired them since their induction, but have recently fell in love with them. I'm married, with 5 kids so a 2007 Expedition EL Limited is my daily driver (wife has an Accord). I'm big into early aircooled VW's and have a '58 Karmann Ghia & a '59 European Bug hardtop. No money to invest into another project at this time, but I'm pretty set on owning an AP2 w/ a HT at some point. I've also owned a Civic Si, DX and Integra GS-R in my 20's and many other VW's. I'm going on 37 now. That's my intro, can I post question now?

What's up guys. Here goes my intro post. I'll start with previous cars and then end it with the current ride.
My first car. 1993 240sx.
My second car and first S2000 I miss her.
This is how she looked when I got her.
And this is what she looked like when I let her go. Skunk2 lowering spring, Amuse front lip, HKS Hi-Power dual cat-back, and a Skunk2 test pipe. The wheels in the pictures are loaners while mine were getting the tires replace because they got slashed (not the gangster wheels in the first pic)...Haters gonna hate.
(Edit)Found a picture with my wheels.
And my current ride. I was thinking about selling it but I think I'm going to hang on to it so I can build a drift beater. Spun a bearing 2 weeks before I left for my deployment. So this is how she sits.
I'm currently working on picking up my next Silverstone AP1

Hello to all,
My name’s Michael but you can call me DOM, I’m currently in the Marine Corps and I’m stationed in Iwakuni Japan. I work closely with Uchinanstyle (a member of the forum). Because of me asking so many questions, he has asked me to join the forum to better my knowledge about Hondas.
I will be getting out soon and going back to my hometown of Hickory, North Carolina. Upon arriving back to NC I was looking to purchase an S2000 (preferably a 05 model). I’m looking to better my knowledge about this car. I have read about the S2000 online and in magazines, what I really need now is people with the hands on experience to better my knowledge. I’m not looking to spend extreme amounts of money but would like to have something really fun to take to the track.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

What's up all?
I just pulled the trigger two days ago on a 2005 black on black ap2.
I wasn't really sure if I was going to win the bid but I came on top with a bid of 22,599.00
The kicker was it is all original and had a whopping 7800 miles. I'm flying tomorrow to Wisconsin and taking the 922 mile drive home.
I'll post some pics once I get my paws on her.
Big thanks to baggy spandex for giving my em1 a great home.

Back to the topic.
Picked up a 2004 S about a month ago to become my new daily, to my new job. I have a 60 mile daily commute (round trip).... needed something good on gas and fun to drive, the choice was obvious.
Pictures later.

Hello All
I'm Luis from San Juan, PR (Currently living in San Antonio, TX). I just sold my 04 STI and bought a midlife crisis 2003 S2000 with 99k. The car is pretty much virgin with the exemption of Alpine head unit, Eclipse amp, JL 10" sub, KN filter and 18" SSR wheels.
I was in the Honda scene from 96-99 with a Candy Apple Red 91 CRX Si. Loved the car, but it was only for cruising, not racing. After that I drove a 3000GT, 02 WRX and ended up driving an 04 STI. So basically I drove a Subaru since 02 until just recently.
I'm impressed with the handling of the S2000. I thought it would take me longer to handle the RWD, but it's coming naturally to me. I can't wait to modify a few things and see what else I can get out of it.
I hope to get good guidance and to meet other S2000 owners in the San Antonio area!

Currently bought a 03 Suzuka with 91k currently at 93,500 to be exact..
Been wanting the s2000 since High school (00-03) and finally got it 9 years later.. Been thru decent cars:

96 Civic Ex
08 350z Enthusiast
10 Prius Hybrid
