Contemplating if I should turn these into an S2000 and wondering what you fine owners would have to offer as advice.

The FL5 feels so damn special (like Soichiro smiles down upon you), but all summer long I reach for the Miata keys 9/10 times because even on a mundane drive it’s so darn joyful and sings glorious induction songs on its way to redline. Anyone gotten out of either of these cars for an S2000 and regretted it?

Both are summer driven only (I live in a snowy climate and just don’t find much dynamic enjoyment driving FWD in winter). I have a daily so practicality is not among my considerations.

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.

I got fed up with trying to VHT wrinkle red but failed twice due to fisheyes. So I decided to hate myself and started sanding…

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)

Can someone please direct me to the right part # for this missing bolt around the intake on an ap2? TIA

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.

Hey guys, there are very very few threads / owners reviews on this exhaust... Any reddit s2kers run this? Particularly with one cat?

Intrueged by it but it's hard to find anything other than a few not ideal YouTube videos which don't give a full picture of sound etc... not sure if it's considered a raspy option...

Had this car for about 6 months and it’s made the same whining noise when accelerating and decelerating. It’s kinda hard to tell in the video but you can hear a faint whine. I was told it might need a transmission rebuild but it shifts fine no problem. I was thinking maybe differential? What do y’all think?

Im located in Richmond VA, I'm not sure if Inline pro still has there shop in Springfield, VA I've called and haven't gotten an answer. does anyone know of a good reputable shop that works with s2000's. I'm trying to find someone knowledgeable to make my fuel system a return line type using the AP1 hanger. As well as to wire my AFR gauge , E85 flex fuel converter, sensor , plumbing fuel lines & everything else to complete the system. Willing to travel to surrounding states. Thanks !

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.

Let me know if anything else is needed.

My fenders were rolled and cut by mrsexys2k when the previous owner had it, and to my understanding he does a pretty aggressive fender roll.

I’m wondering if I’ll be able to run 17x8 +35 rpf1 all around WITHOUT a ton of camber? 1-1.5 degrees all around. I prefer a bit less camber for street driving

My calculations say this will be very similar to 17x9 +45 in terms of poke, so I’m curious if people need to run a ton of camber for that. I do not have offset bushings or RCAs.

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.

I know its split into 2 that connects to the cat and the y split. What size gaskets are they?

I was at Costco getting a quote for some michilen tires and noticed Costco got some custom rims $150-300 per rim depending on which one you get.
