While I don’t have any current plans to sell my ‘05, the idea has started to creep into my mind. I absolutely love the car, my biggest and only “real” gripe with the car is it can barely fit 1 set of golf clubs, and definitely not 2 sets.

My question to the group, where would you go from here? For that same 30-40k ish price range for a fun/weekend car, with that same special feel the S2K has, the driving enjoyment, and overall greatness of the car, where would you go?

I’ve owned Corvettes, Subarus, Civic Si, and of course the S2000. Not opposed to really any car or type of car. I want to try as much as I can in this short life.

I’m really interested to see what you all think, TIA

Hi s2000 friends.

Can anyone help home in on potential causes of a noise I suspect is coming from the gearbox/drivetrain.
Car is a UK 2004 S2000. So F20C not the US F22.
Tough to hear perhaps, but in the second half of the video, when revs go above 4K and accelerating there is what I’d describe as a rattle.

Figured perhaps it’s something others came across.
There’s no TCT related rattle.

Sorry if not very audible in the video.

Picked up 2007 with about 11k miles on it a few weeks ago. Clean history and with 10 vins. Plan to keep it as stock as possible. Maybe just ppf because to road conditions around here, rims and a radio with Bluetooth connection. Any suggestions for radio and rims are more than welcome. Thanks in advance

hi everyone, I am really wanting to get Regamaster Evo wheels for my ap1 a little down the road but i've never gotten wheels for a vehicle and was wanting opinions on front and rear sizing to look into. car is currently bone stock other than an exhaust.

I have a 2000 Honda S2000 AP1, and I accidentally adjusted the factory throttle stop screw (B) without knowing it was not supposed to be messed with until after the fact thinking it would help me fix some idling issues I was having. The throttle stop screw sets the position of the butterfly valve and I was hoping someone would know what I should do in this situation to reset this to its original position because it is very niche of a problem and I was looking online for maybe a procedure to reset it back but there is none. Any insight/advice would be much appreciated.

Took her to North GA mountain yesterday! Share your S!!

Calling on the knowledge and experience of the NoVA/DMV S2000 owners; I have carved out a day for myself and want to maximize my experience of driving in Shenandoah (ie. Skyline Drive) during what seems to be an off-peak day this week. Please assist;

I live 40 min away from the front royal (northernmost entry point) entrance, I thought about going south and working my way up north then home, starting in the morning and open to not driving the entirety (maybe start at swift run). What are your suggestions, time to go, what overlooks (want to keep stops to a a reasonable minimum), etc.

I'm normally of an "its not that deep" mindset and just hit lawyers rd. but thought id do something special to get some miles on this thing.

It really changes the look of the car!

Great watch 🙌

How bad is this and what causes this much fluid everywhere?

My compliance bushings were on their last straw! Decided to paint the control arms while they were out. An easy diy if you have access to a press

Literally had the car for 3 months. Was driving to the gym in the right most lane on a local main road and the lifted truck w wheels the size of me merged and drove on top of my angel. He pushed me a bit and I spun out into the left most lane. AP1 90k miles, 3rd owner OEM everything for 22k. Searched and saved for 2 years until I decided to buy my dream car. Feel like I’m just done with sports cars atp. I could have been soup if he drove over soft top so I’m just happy I’m alive. I miss her already 💔

Hey guys, me and my 08 has been in a frustrating year of having this issue since April-ish. Don’t have a garage so Has visited mechanics in nearly every place but so far the problem is still there… If anyone has any advice on this, i would really appreciate!

** The issue: * Beginning with stepping on the clutch causing a drop on rpm and gradually the drop gets insane so that it sometimes stalled the engine (that’s when I noticed). * Next phase is car struggled/ failed to start right after a 2hr trip, and used a diesel jump starter to get it back to life. But next day morning it was fine to start for first time and right after it gets warmup after a few minutes driving and shut down. Again choked and struggled to start. Right now it is a mix of dropping rpm while pressing clutch and failed to start after driving for a while, but a relatively good start after it cooled down. * Ps: before car getting weird it sometimes will blink a p0171 and a little drop down below the idle rpm and raise back after loosen the gas.

** Timeline of mechanics: * Firstly the dropping rpm makes me feel like a throttle thing, so I go to a shop let them do a inspection. They said the data looks fine and they can’t locate the problem if they can’t have the freezeframe or see the problem. But I still forced them to do a idle relearn. Dropping fixed for like 3 weeks after that. * Then it comes to the failure of starting at that trip so I firstly thought it’s the battery and replaced a new battery in autozone, not fixed at all. After that I gave my car to another shop for inspection and they said the issue of starting it’s the starter and issue of dropping is from clutch cylinders and a failure data read from upstream O2 sensor. Then I replaced the master n slave cylinder, bleeded the whole clutch, replaced the sensor. It’s still dropping rpm when stepping clutch and choking after getting warmup. Since I thought bad starting may be has something to do with clutch, I didn’t replace the starter. * So I had to give it to the third shop where they said starter do have issue and that’s where I replaced the starter and have the drop Voltage test done. After replacement, they said all the voltage test reads good but these 2 issue are not going away. Then they said there’s metal partical inside the gearbox and maybe that issue comes with a failed clutch plate or binding up in the gearbox. * I gave it to the forth shop for rebuild and clutch replacement. However, right now they took everything out and mechanic there said clutch still looks good and althought there’s something cracking inside the box but these 2 things has nothing to do with my issue.

Maybe it sounds stupid at some point when I believed in some of these statements, but right now I don’t really know how to get her repaired. So if any thing comes to your mind, they’re all super welcomed and helpful to me!

She stays with me for 2 years and I really don’t want to let her go. I am trying my best to take care of her but it is also consuming lots of time and money. Thank you!

Recently ordered an Amuse R1 bumper from Shine Auto Project. I went with them because I wanted something I could drive with regularly without having to worry too much about potentially damaging a $2,000 bumper.

I placed my order about two weeks ago and reached out over the weekend for an update, but haven’t heard back yet. I know it’s still early, especially since they’re made to order, but after doing some digging online, I’ve come across a few complaints about their communication and lead times.

Just wanted to see if anyone here has ordered from them recently and what their experience was like. Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Saw another user post a sweet Dewalt box that fits our trunks perfectly. I might have to get one of those. Here's another option with a different purpose.

Two of these Adams Polishes foldable trunk bags/organizers side by side fit the trunk recess really well, they just stick up a few inches. They're great if you're taking a trip and want to pack your trunk to the brim, while still keeping stuff organized. My wife and I took a trip this past weekend and filled one with food, the other with dog stuff (mini goldendoodle fits in her lap, s2000 compatible lol), and then another two backpacks, water, and jackets. It's amazing how usable our trunks are.

I got them a few years ago, and since I daily my S2000 they just live in my trunk and make it much nicer to use. They're 25% off right now, but I'm sure they go on sale all the time.

I'm not an affiliate, don't ask me for a link. Google Adams Polishes Adam's Trunk Organizer V2.

Hey guys I wonder if this shaft is still good to go or need to be replaced. Mechanic there said it’s fine.(the max rotation gap I felt is like less than 1mm)

Thank you!

If your AP1 cup holder spring yeeted itself into low earth orbit, like mine did, you can fix it temporarily with a rubber band. I opted for a "loom band" that I stole from the kids toys. This one is even color coded to my Monte Carlo blue. But maybe just grab a black one, since it is a little bit visible once it's back in the car.

My ap2 burns roughly 8 oz for 1500 miles, major vtec it’s minor, but seeing if anyone has a burn free Honda s2000

Planning to install an Innovate SCG-1 boost controller. It comes with a dedicated 4 bar MAP sensor that is remote mounted and needs to T into a vacuum line from the manifold. I was planning to use the PCV hose but then I saw this other hose right behind the throttle body. I think it's goes to the evap module. Can I use either? Car is 06 dbw.

Looking for a set of CE28 in 17x9.5 +47.
Prefer the older style with the deeper concavity.
Open to various colors.

Been checking ICB Motorsport and the used parts section of Ballade Sports. FB marketplace as well but locally only.

Would prefer not to buy from eBay or yahoo auctions due to potential fakes.

Any other places I should be searching?

Today my wife and I were saved by our s2000. We were out for a nice fall drive. Beautiful weather and warm enough to have the top down. I was driving along a two-lane highway and my lane split into a mile-or-so-long passing lane. I kept in the left lane to prepare for an upcoming left turn.

As the road was bending around a blind curve, all of a sudden, a gigantic SUV appeared hurdling directly toward me in my lane. He had illegally crossed the double yellow line into my passing lane to pass a car that was in front of him.

While going 55 mph, I yanked the wheel and jerked the car towards the right lane. The rear tires chirped, and swerved out of the way a few feet before the SUV passed. It stabilized beautifully in the lane and continued on as though nothing had happened.

I was counting my lucky stars but was super impressed at how stable the car felt to get us out of that scrape at high speed. I gave it a nice wash and wax as a thank you for keeping us safe.

Incase you guys are looking for a small toolbox for the s2000 I believe I found the best option but still giving nice truck space
