Any S2000 haters really need to drive one!

My friend bought one about 4 years ago.. told her to sell it after test driving it cause it the thing had no torque what so ever, you really need to rev the mighty 4 pot to get it going.. She bought a brand new Rx8 3 months after her S2000 purchase, a rotary, which is even more worse for torque

*facepalm*

S2k is a drivers car, you are obviously not one

Nothing wrong with having to rev it out, just drop a gear like a motorbike. It sure beat turbo lag in the traffic. The go kart handling is enough to impress me!

It does actually! Better than my R33 with sunroof :(

That's one thing the Euros did better than the Japs in the 90's...sunrooves that slid up onto the roof rather than into it, which creates more headroom.

Paul is referring to the fact that statistically the odds are against you as a p plater. There is a very large chance that you will stack it so why not stack something u don't give two Shits about

because 1 im fed up with older cars

2 i need something comfortable to daily and be able to hold a 6 burner range in the back

3 it has to look half decent

the ford ticks all those boxes, if i cant get the FG ill just settle for the BA

I spent 25k when i was 19 and 15 months later another 35k on a second car never had any problem just wasn't a dipshit driver - 0 accidents

Moh if it's for work then you'd be eligible for tax deductions of assume ? Tony could tell you better Though

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
