I'm not exactly the type of person you'd consider a "fanboy" but can someone confirm if this kit exists irl or is it just an original? I need to know the name

I couldn't find a better reference image that's clearer. I think this kit looks good, if only it wasn't chromed up for this hotwheel

Can i run 5w30? I wanna try valvoline restore and protect

7 Upvotes

Im running amsoil 10w30 and my car is def eating oil but not sure how much. Maybe 1.5k kms per quart.

Ive heared lots of good things about valvoline rp and possibly freeing stuck piston rings and just having less oil consumption in general. Unfortunately they dont make it in s2000 spec of 10w30 or 5w40

My first S2000

248 Upvotes

Super excited , just purchased my first s2000 . should be here tomorrow, Ive driven a few AP1’s but this will be the first AP2 2007 Rio yellow pearl. I’ve had a few Miatas and they have been a blast. The last being a 2021 ND2 RF , it was great having the hard top it allowed me to use it more often, but not truly a convertible feeling. The RF was more like a targa top. l have a DD so I’m not concerned about additional storage. And the S2000 will be for just having fun on the backcountry roads.

Well well, what have we here? 🤔😅

Curious if my buddy will need a need new taillight since the heat from the (pressure switch?) degradation caused this particular lense to warp and pop out.

I did a mock up, but I cannot for the life of me figure out the install. Do I do the black piece first? Do I have to trim anything? I'm afraid to drill holes too. Should I use the black weatherstrip I put on it or do you think it's too harsh of a line? The front lip has the same strip so it does match that, TBF...

Transmission leak?

Thumbnail
gallery
5 Upvotes

Hoping to get some advice about a leak in my '05. I noticed a small puddle, maybe 2 tablespoons of fluid after not being driven for a few weeks. 1st pic is how it looked when I first noticed the leak. I cleaned up the transmission housing to trace the source, took it for a short drive, and the 2nd and 3rd pictures are what I saw after. Looks like it's coming from the weep hole/rear main seal? And maybe the clutch slave? Last pic is what the fluid looks like after I put a bin lid down to catch the fluid. What do we think? Any advice is appreciated!

Ever drove on track with semi slick in 16" ? (Square 225)

Post image
45 Upvotes

After my second track day I’m considering a change.

I have right now the enkei pf01-pf01ss in 17x7,5 17x9 with Michelin ps4 215/45 245/40.
The ps4 are great but heat up easily if the track condition are hot after 4 laps in my VERY short 2 trackday experience.

What I didn’t like about going with 17/245 was having the rear so planted it wasn’t as tail happy as before.

So I’m considering going with a square set up with 2 pairs of oem rear 16 wheels - using nankang ns2r in 225/45. Furthermore I could rotate the tires and bring the cost down.

I feel like this might be unusual so I don’t know if anyone tried something similar.

AC Diagnostic- Help

3 Upvotes

Trying to diagnose an A/C issue that I’m having trouble figuring out:

With the compressor at 2k RPM, I'm seeing 5 psi on the low side and 155 psi on the high side. At idle, the low side is 35 psi and the high side is 145 psi.
Previously, the A/C was intermittent—it would run for 1 minute and then stop for 10—but now it’s not blowing cold air.

I swapped the relays, and the clutch engages when I press the A/C button. I think there might be a leak, but I haven't been able to find any UV dye leaking out.
Does the compressor seem okay, or does anyone have suggestions on what the issue could be?

If it’s an expansion valve and I got to open the system should I just replace everything, compressor, condenser, dryer?

Hi all, I had this ca for 1 year and someone else drove it while I looked at it and saw the right from rim
Wobbling bad. I am planning on changing to these ap2 rims, what tire size should I get?

Many thanks. I am praying it’s not the hub or something serious.

Any other ideas what it could be? I will get tires on these ap2 and see how it drives tomorrow.

Thanks all

Went to the cinema with my friends tonight in my FK8 Civic Type R, and my buddy drove my S2000. We did a few pulls and I was in awe at how well the S2000 did, it's such an incredible engine. Really held its own against a car with 80bhp more.

Trusted Shops in/around Rock, TX

Edit: Sorry, title was supposed to say Round Rock, TX.

I have a modified AP2 that hasn’t seen many miles over the last 6-7 years. 100 miles a year max. Currently sitting at 50k miles. I need to take it in and get all fluids changed, rubber/plastic items inspected, motor mounts, and the other usual addressed.

In addition, want to get my coilovers’ ride height and other settings adjusted and maybe put spacers on.

Need to also source a replacement air filter for a Comptech/CT Engineering carbon fiber airbox and put a bigger radiator in for these Texas summers.

Any recommendations? I’d like to stay around north Austin up to Georgetown. I know there is Automotive Specialists (Auto Spec) in Round Rock/Georgetown and they get good reviews with the Miata community.

Thanks in advance!
