Differences Between JDM and ADM

[chop_sticks]

Hi im in the hunt for a S2k atm and just stumbled across a JDM model. Just wanna know what the differences are between them? Are they minor differences like the S15? Because i own a S15 and i notice that the only difference is power and little luxury features.

just a suggestion if you are buying a JDM S2K, its hard to sale it to a Honda Dealer later on, you might be only able to sale it privately . . . . . unless the price is really good

jdm is 184kw
audm is 176kw
jdm also run higher compression (11.5? can someone confirm)

JDM comes in Type V which has VGS (Variable Geared Steering), but are rare as far as i know

would it be harder to insure the jdm as its a 'import' ??... might want to give the owner a call and have a chat to him, maybe he will know the differences :D

I just thought the type V had different suspension? and exhaust? damn honda.com.jp...

[SiR JDM]

It may have different suspension and exhuast, but all i know is that it has VGS.

If you ever see a s2k with VGS badge on the back and the steering wheel, its VGS. That thing has like race steering. Its very sensitive. Im not sure if all sk2s have it but his has HIDs stock as well... (his = my friend just got a Type V)

[chop_sticks]

es2K - Ive sent you a pm but you didnt get back to me. So could you pm me back here dude. THanks

s2000 - lol yeah. im a forum slut lol. 2_and's s2k is hot. But id have to think about it. Id prefer a stock one.

Sir JDM - whats VGS??

[SiR JDM]

Khuong, VGS stands for Variable Gear Steering and is only available on the Type V s2000, introduced to Japan only.

From what I know about it the difference is that standard steering locks after 2.4 turns, while VGS is at 1.4, giving it more sensitive steering.

As mentioned before his HIDs are stock but im not sure if thats a Type V feature or not. It was a personal import.

It has VGS embedded to the steeringwheel and a VGS badge on the rear =)
