im am thinking about getting an s2k and was wondering how good the trans and drive shafts and rears hold up i might boost it but nothing to crazy maybe 15psi was just wondering if anyone is haveing any prob with higher horse power ones o i am planing on getting an 07 or 06

 

Anything about 450 you might want to think about upgrading driveshaft, halfshafts, and pumpkin. Inline pro and the driveshaft shop are a popular fav. Our pumkins are weak and stock S2's break them all the time.

 

maybe 15psi?
you know thats well over 400whp right???

u can have 800whp on stock drive train just dont drive it like u stole it and your good to go..

 

no offens to tu honda guys but might have to go with a z3 roadster still like s2k but those z3 m's are the **** my dad just picked one uo a couple of months ago for about 16 grand with 50000 miles on it and drive train and motor are pretty much bullet proof and the most amazing fun car to drive not to mention its fast but if u band gears hard the shift **** to to come off damn germans o end a lil faster than an s

Between the roadster and the s2000, I'd go s2000 hands down; the roadster is kind of ugly to me. The ideal situation would be to find a nice M Coupe.

The differential is kind of weak on S2000. Of course if you only use it to drive to church then it probably won't break. Nevertheless , if anything then this is usually the first/only thing to break on the car, and as such the first thing you might want to upgrade.

again, it you dont drive like a IDIOT or making well over 450-500 theres no need to worry...

but then again any care making power like that will break if abused

 

BMW will be in the repair shop within 2 months, and at least cost 1,000 to fix.

Well...since he thinks 15psi isnt much, the S2000 will be in the shop for an exploded engine/trans/diff/driveshaft condition every 2 days. Which costs more than the Bimmer maintainence..or maybe just as much.

I dont think the S2000 is the car for you, man. It's bulletproof if you drive it like it was meant to be driven. It's TOTALLY breakable if you drag race it or put a lot of power into it. It's just not meant for that.

How bout a bitchin camaro?

Corvette?

GTO?

They're all bitchin. Just put the word "bitchin" in front of it...it works well. "bitchin S2000" sounds stupid.


Also, grow a mullet....and a mustache just for good measure.

Honestly, If I wanted a car with a bulletproof driveline to drag race with, I'd go to the Camaro dealership and trade in all my old money for a new camaro.

hahaha that really made me laugh... thats considered peoples high boost setting... a normal low boost setting is around 8-10 psi... i was in a guys ride pushing 19psi and it was soooo much fun... car slams you back into the seat, but he shifts gradually and accelerates properly... he hasnt upgraded his dif yet, but when he does itll be a different story he ripped up a ferrari 355 the other day by 3 cars from a 70mph roll...

 

yeah 15 psi seems a little high.
