Correct. S2000 and K Series motors have timing chains. They don't need to be replaced like rubber timing belts.

Ill be taking it for service soon. Get the head checked out and a report on wear on tear inside the head. I think it need a sealant change.

Hope this help.

2L in 3 Months

But I did give the car a good ripping. Little smoke on high revs aswell.

It also has a untuned V-AFC2

if its going through oil try looking into 'krank vents'

the f20c is known to 'drink' oil.

i did that to every car that i have bought over the last years or so.

its really up to you how you take care the car.

S2K's don't have timing belts, even tho one reputable Honda dealer in Sydney quoted the 100K service which they said included timing belt change!!

the only thing i can see them inspecting is the timing chain tensioner

Try to avoid S2ks that were run in on the freeway. Quite a few have rings that don't seal well and hence consume oil. Same goes for K-series engines.
