put a deposit down on a 2001 Honda S2000 today ^______^

Awesome ! I think (recalling some posts in the spotted thread) you live around where I do, I'll keep an eye out :D

Colour?

nice, agree with roof down / another guy = homo

other than that nice buy can I ask how much you got it for? pm if preferred

always liked them but wasn't sure about the power, people that have driven them say they're great

Yeah I remember you spotting me before. It's grey/silver

I'm paying $19,700, which is a good price for a 2001 model and it's in top condition.

As for the power... it's not amazingly fast but it is quick for a 2.0 N/A, it would certainly give me GTS-T a good run for it's money. The thing that I like most about them is the handling and I always thought they were one of the best looking cars in that price range.

nice buy mate i'm sure it'll be heaps of fun through the twisties

what you folks reckon of these rims?

i like ssr professors but saw the 1k each price tag for 20s and felt a bit sick inside

Sexy colour on the S2k's. Hopefully will spot it sideways around bwd hwy from now on :P

I've only really heard good things about the s2k's - only possible downside is they do need to be rev'd to get places (but hey, half the fun? DAT REVRANGE :P). Never driven one myself, or even been in one before though, unfortunately. Regardless, I love the bonnet on those things, looks like it'll be a fun ride :)

Yeah it's a nice colour, I wanted a black one, in fact I was about to put the deposit on a black one tonight but I decided to look at this one first. Although it was my second choice colour, it was in much better condition, had a new roof, new clutch, good alarm, drove better and the owner was more negotiable on the price.

Maybe I should put an SAU sticker on it to see if I get spotted haha.

Get concave Leigh!

Or gtp rims I rkn they look good

which concave rims? I do like concave like XT7s but unfortunately don't come in 20s

GTP rims look worst than GS ones, I mainly want the stance / 10" rear

mirin vossens but don't think they have australian dealers:

(Y), usually love black cars, but like Birds said, I do quite like the s2k in silver.

liking the vossens also. did a quick google, found a thread where "a bit hard to find in aus. when i contact vossen in usa, they directed me to a distributor in nz. luckily i found tyrepower in hawthorn who stock vossens (and work, rays, etc). nice guys who are more like car geeks than people running a business".

so where there's a will, there's a way? :P

Silver and red are the best S2k colors IMO. Black falls short for some reason, don't think it's a very good black...car is too small for it or something.

Yeah I wanted red interior, but I ended up with black. The red wears out much faster but does look nicer. Hopefully some come up on ebay of something and I can change them over.

lol, that's funny cause, when I was looking at one just over a year ago, it was a silver with red interior and the latter was the only thing I wasn't too keen on. Everything about it was absolutely mint...best looking paint in photos and 90,000km on the clock. By the time I got round to deciding yes, it sold on me :(

thanks for that.. i might go down and see them

don't remember the thread date though, so maybe worth a call before driving all the way down!

and if they've got an nz distributor, shouldn't be too much to vic? not sure.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
