Well guys currently i have a big prelude project that i intend to finish. Afterwards however i plan on picking up a s2000. I figure i should start researching about a year ahead of purchasing one to make sure i don't miss anything.

The price range i am aiming for is closer to the price of the early s2000's. However, if their are tons of factory flaws/bugs i could save some more and buy a later model.

I guess my first question is what are differences with the motors? Are all the f22's the same? I know that bolt on's actually make some decent gains compared to the h22 which doesn't respond well to anything unless it is completely custom. With that said i will be leaning towards boosting it most likely. How well do these motors hold up to low boost without building the motor?

I seriously would not bother posting this if this section had a stickied faq's thread. You guys should get one

How early of an s2k are you looking to buy because MY04+ is f22 MY00-03 f20

 

Crazy, see i did not know that.

Thanks for posting that link, i'll be reading that.

 

Stop thinking about buying one and go out and buy one - you won't regret it

Motor will hold up good with 450whp using only a 3mm head gasket - get it and boost it

For more info look to my sig and if you have about an hour free read through the thread, there is a lot of useful information spread out around there

 

Trust me i am tempted but like i said i have a prelude project to finish and i am still in university. It should be finished this spring/summer and then after about 2 months or so i should be looking to buy one

 

dude no boost just open it up a lil so it breaths better throw some gears in it and its a nice weekend car

 

Yah, the more i think about it the more i would like to just do an n/a build out of it. I really wanted to do an H n/a build but i just know i would never be happy with the outcome of it. If the cost of parts is similar to those of an H for a F than i will probably do a n/a build. I am not looking for a beast of a car, something that is really fun.

I have had both boost and n/a and i love n/a alot more. I have never had a boost honda (until i finish my current build) soooo i am keeping both options open since i can't accurately say what i will like more in a honda.

I don't know though. Thanks for the links guys

 

If you really want a car with high HP (sounds like you do) the S2000 may not be for you.
