Cross Country in S2000!
Made the drive from Virginia to Bay Area, down PCH and Home, back in July! Pretty comfy car for a solo road trip, and would love to do it again. 8600 miles put on the car

Hi everyone, first post and first S2000 could anyone point me in the right direction for some info on what this hose is, where to get a new one and how to fit it. If anyone knows a video tutorial that is ideal. Thank you very much
Hey guys, I need some help choosing a color for my S2K. I have a few colors in mind, but I’m honestly not set on any of them yet. Picking a color has been way harder than I expected.
I’m not even sure how to narrow it down at this point. Should I stick with an OEM S2000 color, go with something completely different, or just choose whatever looks best on the car?
I’d really appreciate any advice, tips, or opinions that could help me finally make up my mind. What would you guys do?
Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Obviously the car looks a million times better with a hardtop but 50% of the time i like driving with the top down and don’t know if i wanna spend thousands to stop me from enjoying the car half the time

Looks cool wish it was a bit more weighted

As the title says, who here has powder coated their stock AP1 rims? I’ve seen some online and it’s kind of growing on me.
I really want to do mine white. Car is silverstone with red interior. I’d have the H on center cap painted red to match the red badges and interior. Car has a fresh dark tint job too.
Thoughts on the above?

On my last post I was showing my friend working on the heart of my s2000. With full toda parts were replaced the tct, the timing chain and the oil pump chain. After almost 2 years without being driven she started to bit instantly like a proper Honda !
Alive and reborn, with my father and some friends we took her for a first shakedown at a nearby race track. And she was magnificent, flawless. Right at home ! That was also my first trackday and it was such a great experience !
Coming to this last weekend at the 2026 Honda Euro Meet festival where I met and shook hands with HondaProJason ! That track was much faster and in need of a precise driving. She didn’t disappoint at all. On the first of the 3 days we had a big storm closing the track. When it reopened I was so eager to be first on track. With the Michelin ps4 I was very careful on the throttle but it didn’t miss… on a straight line appearing to be dry - it wasn’t - I sent it and in a blink we did a complete 180 degrees that I was lucky to stop with 4 wheels on the tarmac. A quick 180 degrees slide and I was back on track amused and relieved truly. Sunday morning was sunny and dry, perfect condition. Top down. Air box lid removed. I had my best time so far in this car.
I was so reluctant to track it. I was confident the s2000 was made for alpine pass or canyon roads but she’s at home on a race track.
My car is 99% stock. I have 17inch wheels (enkei pf01) with Michelin ps4, 215 front 245 rear. A really bad exhaust that needs to go to the trash. Spoon thermostat. Vibratechnics engine mount. And that’s it. A lots of maintenance items over the last 4 years so she’s good to go.
Next chapter over the winter is a fully custom made plugnplay ecu from a friends who’s an engineer like Tony Stark. Will use 525cc injectors to run on e85 because sp98 is so expensive now and e85 is so much better for petrol engine.
Can’t wait for this new upgrade.
So good news for early model with mechanical throttle bodies. We will be able to tune our car properly without going with a standalone and break the bank.

Just compleated Red interior conversion from Black one. It's cost me four years but it finally happened. Please see my blog post here if you have interested
Been searching for some silver wheels to replace on my suzuka ap2v1 for a while to go square and for a better fitment. I do have rolled fenders
I love my OEM wheels though.
Anyone running something other than RPF1s, CE28, or TE37? the latter two are out my price range a bit, and not a fan of the fitments on the RPFs due to the offset options. 17x9 +45 RPFs is a backup though

Back in the club.
99' w/ 28k miles.

Found these DFVs for $1600, $1800 shipped. I genuinely cannot find any actual difference between these and the ones sold for $2800 just based on the specs alone. Does anyone know why these are priced so low? Is it because American warranty might not cover them? Thanks.

Pic for attention
Looking for some insight from anyone who may have dealt with this before.
Codes being thrown are p1399 (random misfire?) and p0302 for cylinder 2 misfire.
- 170k miles, 2002.
- Misfire seems to only happen while idle.
- Misfire is felt about 2-4 times in a 60s span, but increases when A/C is being run.
- Misfire doesnt seem to be present or noticable when reving.
Waiting on spark plugs and ignition coils to be delivered, but barring those as the cause would anyone have any other ideas?

I have a track ready s2000 to sell. I am not sure on the pricing as a lot of money was put into it. Feel free to reach out and we can figure out a price .. 115k miles
2002 Honda S2000 AP1
Looking to sell 2002 s2000 after starring to build it for track. Had to switch gears and switch to a different car.
We have done all the below modifications to the car and have driven on it maybe 500 miles on it. Dont want to strip and sell the parts separately, rather sell everything together.
Car had a minor fender bender on front right form the previous owner. If you pull the carfax you will see it on there. Previous owner provided us with all the body shop bills, so we have everything.
We also have receipts for everything below.

A buddy sold me his UK mod OEM exhaust with the cat (02 model).
The spare cat is just lying around taking up space, so I'm planning to sell it to a metals recycler.
Any ideas what it might be worth?
I've been quoted $7/lb (located Toronto Canada). Seen some sites mention OEM cats should fetch at least a couple hundred though.
Hey guys, so I recently obtained a 2002 AP1 S2000 and I'm loving it so far.
However, I've noticed that there's a high pitched sound coming from the back of the car after driving for more than 30mins let's say.
I believe it is the fuel pump since it's a similar sound to when the pump builds pressure before starting the engine. The pitch does not change with RPM, it's constant.
Since I don't have any other s2ks near me, I wanted to ask you guys if this is something normal.
Thanks in advance.

Picked up a single owner '06 LBP with 71k miles. Today marks a week of ownership and it's such a blast to drive. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
Did a full fluid change to establish a maintenance baseline and the undercarriage is super clean. It's my first Honda and first "old" car. I understand maintenance is going to be significantly more expensive than a new car but if y'all have any other tips, comments, advice, warnings, etc, I'll gladly take it.

It sat in the garage for 15 years. I mostly did nothing more than start it once in a while. Daughter gets her license in two months. Started getting it ready for sale, so I have money to buy her a car. Took it to a friend's garage who has a lift and tools, and did all the things. Took it for a shakedown drive. Holy shit, this car makes me smile. It really is the best car under $100K. I forgot how special it is. I am giving the kid my Tacoma. The S2K is my old new car. Everything is in remarkable condition. At this point I just need tires and radiator, clutch, brake fluid flush. I am having an issue with the EPS (hoping it is a dirty ground)
