b20 has a point, but if you want to be a smartass.

Or go spin it some more until the light goes off. *shrugs*

ok listen do you have a scanner is so hhok it up and find out why i came on its probably because your VSA wasnt on and was tring to come back on. so just find the code of why it came on and bada bing your done. (plus change your oils/lubricants)

i agree i think the VSA wanted to come back on........i Disconnected the battery and then reconnected it and the service engine light was off.....i drove it normally and it didnt come back on.....so theres nothing wrong with my engine right? then i turned the VSA off and went to a parking lot and went to town.....everything was good...but i think if you push the car to hard it will warn you to turn the VSA back on and if you still push it the ECU reads that theres something wrong with the VSA system and the service engine light comes on...........does that sound about right?

You must be a great cornering artist...
Such a bad spin-out you made the service engine light come on...

I wish I was as cool as you.

you are going no where fast with your attitude. i simply told you your car is NOT meant to go sideways. i even said i had nothing against wat you are doing. you wanted to know why the check engine light came on...and i told you. dont go sideways.

Yes you are correct, I was referring to your name.
Apparently you think drifting is an artful form of cornering?
S2000 are not for drifting though, so I stand by my statement.
You want to drift get an AE86 or 240sx.

Drifting is just a fad, go join the bandwagon on the sr20forums

Taking a car around a corner is more than just turning the steering wheel, especially in competition driving. When throwing a car around a curve at breakneck speeds, the line taken when entering and exiting the turn makes a lot of difference.



There is a certain procedure to be followed when approaching a corner on the track at high speed. While driving in a straight line, when you see a corner ahead, smoothly lift off the throttle. You will learn to do this as late as possible with practice. Now progressively apply the brakes as needed while still in a straight line. Quickly downshift to the right gear to maintain enough revs for accelerating out of the turn. While looking ahead to the apex of the curve, smoothly release the brakes just before you turn-in. Braking during the actual turn may upset your car's balance. Gently apply a little throttle as you start the turn-in. As you turn, always look further ahead into the turn by physically turning your head. Always turn the wheel slowly and smoothly, as jerky steering movements will also upset the car's balance. Co-ordinate your hands and eyes, for progressive steering input. As you pass the apex of the turn, smoothly apply more throttle in a progressive manner, and begin your move towards the outer edge of the track as you exit the turn. Let the steering wheel smoothly and progressively unwind towards the trackout point, by which time your wheel should be pointing straight ahead. in cornering your not trying to get the car sideways.

So where'd you copy that from? I asked for the difference between cornering and drifting.
