Buying a s2k

[nisboi40]

Hey guys been thinking for a while bout purchasing a s2k ap1
I read all the forums about it on the net so don't hit me and tell me to search lol

I can't decide
civic fn2 type r
Dc5r
S2k evently supercharged or turbo

I'm leaning towards the s2k but need to know the upps and downs
Coming from the ppl that actually own them

Cheers for helping!

Just remember with an S2000, Their not Silvia's, do not drive it like a Silvia or else you'll be replacing a diff in no time (which is Costly)

Otherwise in my case (I'm 6"1) I found the drive fun but uncomfortable.

s2k is 2 seater obv
but if thats not an issue meh

fn2 is a slug

So diff isn't strong I go to the track somtimes with my r33 and have some fun there wanted to test a s2k there but I guess not haha is there much aftermarket support for diffs etc and power wise how would it go agaisnt a dc5

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

No, the diff is plenty to go to the Track on but the Diff on the S2000 isn't meant to be....


Just don't be a dibshit and rip skids all the time (you know, like you would with a Silvia)


There is plenty of Aftermarket Diff support, it just can get expensive.

Not trying to scare you off a S2000, just don't drive it like a dick and you won't palm face later.

DC5R vs S2000 is a very different Battle, FWD vs RWD, different gear ratio's (etc)

Give them both a little spin to see.

Yer lol de I'll keep my r33 for drifting haha
Looking tonspend round 25-30k and that's round the same price what there going for.
Looking for 2002 glass window s2k
White red interior not thrashed never been in one but can't wait
K20 vs f20c hmmm I'd rather the 2 seater and it would be alot lighter
But yer keep your opinions coming
