Just wondering has anyone ever had problem with there s2000 revving up to redline? 9k to be more specific thnx.

 

Well...i know that it WONT until its warmed up enough. S2000's have dual stage rev limiters so that the car isnt damaged when the engine is cold.

 

thnx for the responce but what about when fully warm. Im still new to the s2000 , because my moms s2k only goes to mabie 8800 to me its no big deal just wondering

shift a little later... the cut off doesn't really come in till around 9200..you'll see the cluster blinking

 

i did but it feels like the power is cut off or a rev limiter, but i dont know i think im gonna take it to my friend at honda and have him look at it.

 

what year is it??

the 00-01 tailed off towards 9k... around 8800rpm it's running really rich for safety reasons... but the redline is still technically at 9k...

in the 02-03 they revised the ecu a bit.. and leaned out the air/fuel up top.. so it pretty much pulls all the way to 9k...

but truely, it's not that big of a difference...

 

its a 2000 with 71 ,000 miles, thnx alot for ur help man I just got a k&n drop in for her yesterday and the car had apexi world sport dual exhaust.

 

ya it kinda feels like the power dies out .

 

but you can still take it up to 9k+ right?? before the cluster starts to blink?

 

ok just drove the car it only goes to 8700 and then the car hit a rev limiter

 

and the car was properly warmed up?? 3 bars on the temp guage?
check the oil....

if all those are ok.. then take it in...

 

ya i check the oil before i drove it twice 2day and ya its at 3 bars

 

then take it in...

 

ya im going to honda 2day but its funny cause the car pulls hard but just cuts out

 

found out the cars ok its the map sensor, so just gotta change it. thnx for all the help guys

 

sweet... glad it wasn't anything serious...

 

ya i talked to my homie that used to work for honda and he said that that was a problem on 00-02 s2k .

He said they even spudder sometimes. and thnx for the ecu info he said that with the switch the 00-01 will run better with the new ecu change.

Sometimes the MAP sensor gets faulty and requires a little kick in the *** to work right again. Also requires resetting your ECU and relearning the idle. Replacing the MAP sensor is the next/last resort I guess.

 

ya thats what i thought u were saying lol. but thnx foe the info. i told her to look into the newer ecu. Man the s2000 forum has the nicest members

 

Really? I'm actually an ******* on a good day.

 

lol i have been on h-t for a minute and this i one of the best forums

 

&lt;----Has never had a problem taking his S2k's engine up to redline. I shift at redline damn near every time while doing track days. The engine almost seems to beg me for more.

 

lol
