Curious S2000 buyer

[kostaki]

Hi all out there,

I was the owner of a 12.9 second s15. Back in January I wrote off the car completely in an accident where I was totally at fault. I ended up losing my license on manner dangerouos driving.

Now looking at new cars, I am looking into getting a S2000 when i get my license back. I have a bad feeling though that the S2000 will be too slow compared to my old beast.

Can anyone tell me roughly how much im looking at spending on a turbo conversion on a S2K. The whole kit, to make the car a reliable daily driver?

Thanks guys

yep thats true, an s2000 wont be as fast as your s15 but who are you trying to impress with all the speed? its not like you can use all of it on the streets. S2000 is a balanced package ideal for the twisties. I think turbo kits can be bought from the US for anywhere between 6-10k. Toda racing would be the people you would wanna see for such work. But my opinion is that if your planning to boost the s2k then just save your money and buy another nissin or a wrx.

thanks mate

even though i think s2000's are way hotter looking than 200's, i dont wanna buy one and not be satisfied with the power. but for 40k they'd have to move right?

do you know any stock s2000 1/4 mile times?

at best how far can you push a s2k staying clear of a turbo?

who cares who you beat i would of beat u with my civic haha laugh ,and whats so funny beating a car full of lebs?a full car vs ur 200?haha again

[kostaki]

hey, my car was loaded too you know. how much did you spend turboing the civic?

[2MPRSS]

the car+ turbo=less then your car +it is much more funny seeing a 200 geting shamed by a civic

anyways s2000 are hot cars imo slower then a s15 will do around mid 14s with avarage driver

[kostaki]

how much you rekon i should expect to pay for turboing the s2k?

[2MPRSS]

$15000 i know a guy that has done it but i know nothing about the car,why u wana turbo a s2k for?when it comes to the time to sell it your going to have problems and headaches

1 my civic isnt black its blue,
2 u didnt see my front mount coz my car is still in the workshop
3 yes i am turk
and ive never raced a 12.9 sec s15 before on parra rd i only rememeber a blue s15 but never raced coz its illegal haha

[kostaki]

ok i was just mucking around. i checked out your profile to find out you were turko. greece v turkey again in the soccer, how goods that

in terms of NA mods you can read todas modding guide for the f20c. The only problem i find wrong with hondas is that they lack power down low but still are more responsive than turbo cars and are much more ldriveable on a daily basis. By upgrading your final gear and lighter flywheel will give you a much better driving experience than what your s15 would have given you. A friend of mine recently sold his s15 and bought an s2000 and he actually said what i had just typed. His s15 was fully modded as well.

why dont u just take out the s2000's f20c and sell it for about 6k. and implant a sr20det in the s2k? wouldnt that satisfy you?btw they are both N-S engine mounted vehicles. hahah laughsss.. nothing better then a bov coming form a honda
