Ok guys, I am going through my car this weekend or next and have a few questions on some things.

Here are some of the things I plan on changing/doing. Keep in mind my car is just a cruiser. Not a racer by any means. It is DD.

1. Plugs- What kind is recommended? (not from the Stealership) Too spendy IMO.
2. Fuel Filter - Will an Autozone brand work? Or do I need something aftermarket? (again, want to avoid the stealership if possible)
3. O2 sensor(s) - I have 50k on my car, is it time to change them??
4. Plug Wires- in yall's opinion should these be changed?
5. Tranny/Diff. fluid- I am changing these as well, I am using Redline Synthetic. (also I just have a jack and jackstands, is this going to be a major PITA to do?) any tips? lol
6. Brakes (pads and rotors) - The only ones I can find are aftermarket. I really don't think I need aftermarket, as I only cruise in my car.

Thanks for reading and if there is anything else that you might think needs changing or checked please chime in.... Have a great weekend!

 

check it first if it needs replacement...

and s2000 doesnt have plug wires...

use OEM if you ever need replacement..

i doubt the O2 sensor needs to be replace if its not faulty...

Thanks for the input.

^^^ what he said.


change your engine oil,
tranny oil,
diff oil, diff oil i went with mobile 1, redline is good also.

spark plugs go oem, costly but worth it,
brakes? do you NEED them?
bleed your clutch and brakes,....

Plugs - Might as well go Iridium.
Fuel Filter - OEM
O2 sensor - If it's not bad enough to throw you a CEL, don't bother.
Tranny Fluid - OEM Honda Friction Modified MTF, Royal Purple Synchromax, or Redline. A hand pump helps.
Diff Fluid - LE607, Royal Purple Gearmax, or Redline. 22mm wrench and hand pump needed.

Yes, I need brakes soon. What do yall recomend?

And thanks for all the help guys!

 

No help on brakes?? I was thinking about Autozone brakes and rotors.

 

you dont need to change your rotors.. you can get them resurface, you know.. but if you have cracks, then it needs to be replace..

you cant just throw brand new pads on un-even surface rotor.. the pads needs to be completely flat againts rotor for better braking..

ps. if you do need rotor, (i think) i have a set of brand new (never mounted) set (all 4 corners) of drilled brembo rotors just sitting in my garage.. (make an offer + shipping) ill check it later

 

also remember the s2k fuel filter is on the stock pump. there's no underhood one like other honda models.
