^^^ DIY is perfectly fine, however this is not a task for someone who is not mechanically minded. As the inlet side is tricky (due to injector rail) and you need to have the right tools.

You guys should really wait for photos and how I go first.. I'm sure it's a piece of nothing... lol I've done valve adjustments on many other vehicles, just not the S2000 yet. I'll be sure to take detailed photos with my iPhone. LOL
Not really similar, I've only had experience with B and F series engines. B series are easy to do. The injector rail (and injectors) on the F20C makes the inlet side difficult to do, as it's hard to get the feeler gauge in (i bent my feeler to make it fit) as for tightening the tapet, it is very difficult without the use of a hollow ratchet and extension. Otherwise remove the fuel rail and injectors and it'll be much easier.

Reason: added info
But I did manage to clean my IACV valve whilst servicing the beast and fixing a few minor seepages... Boy did it make a difference... Got photos if anyone is interested to see the gunk that loves the side of the throttlebody... I've noticed better fuel economy recently too, but I did use Ultimate instead of the usual Vortex for this tank.... Might be coicedence, but regradless I'm a happy camper!
Haven't had any experience either LOL
