s2k or autech s15?

**Setanta** · 29-04-2011 03:58 PM

Neither! Save your money until you can drive a turbo and then buy a spec r s15

You could get a better example of an Autech for the price, and it's a nice car, but I'd have to agree that an S15 is meant to have at least an SR20DET under the hood.

If you're only looking at the Autech because you can't drive a turbo, then you'd be wise to wait until you can drive a turbo, or have saved more. You'll need more money for a decent example of an S2000. Just don't bite off more than you can chew.

An Autech in good condition would be a great daily drive, though.

My friend's mate's counsin's friend's uncle blew a diff...... Unless you've had first hand experience I doubt you're in any position to judge the S2000, or even the Autech S15.

em1boy is right. s2ks have shit diffs. if u disagree with that then ur clueless about these cars rofl. i blew mine..and 5 drive shafts along with it. they naturally have a very weak rear end, unless ur a baby with 1. if ur into "spiritual driving" and unless ur ready to fork out proper money for a proper build diff then stay away from these cars as all u will get his headache after headache. especially if u have bad driving habits. all my mates wanna get rid of theres bcuz there getting diff problems. i just forked out 4k for a full proper built diff and im loving her

...keep up with my cousins SPEC R s15 which is boosted aswell

Where in my post did I disagree? He's spouted alot of bs in this thread so I simply told him he's in no position to judge a car's worth because of "thingz he heardz from a cuz bro".

S15 for practicality!

S2k for the weekend warrior!

As far as build quality goes, Honda all the way, S15 can seem a bit dull at times, but the air vents are pretty cool, seats are pretty nice, they hold u nice an tight, the SR20 can get noisy due to the chain, but easy to fix, the interior will start creaking over time, but other wise the S15 is a fantastic car to own, my brother had one, i had it for a period of time, an loved it, its sleek an sexy, no need for bodykits, jus a nice set of rims an ur set....

Get a 350Z and beat both the s2k and autech s15. Easy.

They're also priced very similarly to the s2k and autech s15.

**Indie** · 30-04-2011 11:56 PM

You can get a 350Z for the same price as an S2k? Really...?

**em1boy** · 01-05-2011 10:20 PM
