Note that a TSB to fix the clutch "buzz" was issued in 2001. From 2002, this issue was fixed in new S2000s. It can potentially happen in any model really, but the known culprits existed in the 1999/2000-2001 models.

The exedy oem replacement is just like a stock clutch without the "honda" price tag.
If you get discounts and free installation f20c, you should be able to get basically a new clutch for something like 200 bucks bargain!
Dude diffs and driveshafts are like elastic bands, some break easily, some take some punishment. Drifting killed mine more than once. I actually managed to break an inner joint and snap 4 teeth on the crown wheel from doing a 9K launch. Ha Ha! Ah the sound of breaking metal. I'm seriously considering fitting an S15 diff, with custom billet inner joints. Then there shouldn't be any prob's.
lol.. well i kind of dont launch passed 5 now.. kinda scared it will happen to me.. i have enough power to catch up anywaay most things in melb suck ass so meh lol. like today a VNSS pulled up next to me i launched at 4 and supprisngly i got wheel spin.. never used to get that on bald tyres even rofl.. but anyway he got the better start from 2nd gear onwards i left him for dead.
Yeah i seen the same, as the nissan crown wheels are also renouned for cracking/breaking, i guess if your out to break something, it's bound to happen. It's not that the factory honda diffs are shit, it just we all love to try and fit 255's on the rear with super sticky tyres, and sort of wonder why they break.
I have replaced one clutch with a stock Honda it’s now great.
I am also getting my drive shafts swapped around due to vibration (cogs wear on one side)
my car has 90K on the clock and I don’t drive slow and drive up the mountain to Tamworth regularly and 1 track day so far plan to do more its sick!
