2000 HONDA S2000 WITH 2005 AP2 ENGINE 

I could say my S2000 has never been raced but if click on the video below you would know that isn't the truth. You can determine from the video how well my S2000 runs and handles. I had just installed the AP2 motor and front adjustable sway bar which corrects the oversteering problem that all S2000's have.

As a brief summary I purchased the S2000 knowing that I wanted make it a duel purpose car, Autocross on the weekends and drive on the street for fun. The S2000 is not my daily driver and to be clear most of the time was spent Autocrossing with very little time on the street.

When I purchased the S2000 it was a little rough around the edges, the motor had 111808 miles on it the clutch had been replaced but other than that it needed a little help. My plan was to clean the S2000 up repair everything that needed repairing and set it up to run in SCCA B Stock Autocross. To the novice that means that it has to be almost stock with a few allowable tweaks. So let me begin by saying that the Honda now has 112019 miles but a totaled 2005 S2000 provided a motor with approximately 30488 miles on it. The new motor was installed at 111932 miles on the odometer so that means the AP2 engine now has 30565 miles. I can provide documentation to the winning bidder on everything that I that I just stated.

In addition to the AP2  motor I installed the following new parts:

2008 Honda S2000 CR Front and Rear Shocks and Springs and rear sway bar
Small Fortune Racing (Bill Gendron) Front Adjustable Sway Bar with with Ball Bearing Mounts
God Speed Racing Front Adjustable Upper Control Arms
Megan Racing Rear Adjustable Upper Control Arms
OEM Honda Clutch Kit (pressure plate, clutch disc, clutch release bearing and pilot bearing)
Megan Racing Motor Mounts (Engine and Transmission)
K&N Filter Charger Cold Air Intake (50 state legal)
Auto Meter Oil temp and Pressure gauges
Auto Meter Tach with Shift Light
Rebuilt Starter
New Brake Rotors with Hawk HP + Pads 
Battery 
Plus lots of other little items to numerous to mention

With regards to tires and wheels (I am including a set of wheels/tires for Autocrossing)  it now has:

WHEELS:: 2004-2005 Honda S2000 17" wheels; The fronts are 17 x 7 and the rears are 17 x 8.5 (I bought these new)
TIRES:  New Sumitomo HTR Z III ; Fronts 215x45x17 and the Rears are 245x40x17
RACING WHEELS: (4) 17 x 9 (purchased new) with Hankook 245x40x17 Ventus C71 Autocross tires 

Maintenance was done at Miles 111808 and 111932 and included:

Replaced Transmission Fluid with Honda ATF 
Replaced Differential Oil with Valvoline 75 - 90 Synthetic 
Replaced Brake Fluid with Prestone Synthetic
Replaced Oil with Mobil 1 5 - 30
Replaced Filter with Stock Honda
Replaced Antifreeze with Honda Blue
Replace Spark Plugs with NKG 7746
Values were adjusted to Honda Spec
Aggressive street wheel alignment

EXTRA STUFF:

Included is a test pipe that can replace the catalytic when autocrossing. The test pipe adds approx 15 more HP by reducing the back pressure caused by the catalytic converter. Catalytic converter is now installed on vehicle.

I still have most of the stock stuff to include upper control arms and sway bars if you want them.


Over all condition:

in my estimate the overall condition of the Honda S2000 I have for sale is very good. The seats have no tears but normal wear, the carpet is in good condition, the paint does not have any blemishes and even close up looks good. The convertible top is in good condition but the plastic rear window is average. The rear window has been replaced but plastic scratches very easy next owner should replace with glass. I have an owners manual, spare tire and factory tools. Everything works to include the AC, the radio is non stock but works well and comes with a jack that will allow you to use your iPod or MP3 Player.

I have had the frame inspected several times (each time I changed the wheel alignment) and there are no signs of an accident. 

TERMS OF SALE:

Terms of Sale are simple: $1000.00 down payment via PayPal within 48 hours of offer acceptance. Balance due within 5 days. I will accept cash or money order drawn on Bank of America. I will validate money order before car is released.

You are welcome to contact me via email or my cell phone (909 208 1944) if you have any questions.

Honda settles class-action lawsuit over oil-burning V6s

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Although we hadn't heard of this issue before, Automotive News reports that Honda has agreed to settle a massive class-action lawsuit brought against it for engine trouble potentially affecting nearly 1.6 million vehicles. The lawsuit includes Accord (2008-12), Odyssey (2008-13), Pilot (2009-13) and Crosstour (2010-13) models equipped with the 3.5-liter V6 with Variable Cylinder Management, which might experience engine misfire, excessive oil burning and premature spark plug fouling issues.
As part of the settlement, Honda will extend the powertrain warranty on these models for eight years (from time of purchase or lease) with no mileage limitation, and it will also reimburse customers who had to pay out-of-pocket expenses for related repairs such as spark plugs, pistons or, in some cases, apparently, an entirely new engine. (Of course, the repairs had to be related to certain trouble codes.) Lawyers will get no more than $800,000 from Honda and the guy who originally started the case, Vince Eagen, will get $1,000 for his "time and effort."
The final ruling on the matter will take place on March 21, 2014, and if you want to see if you're affected and what options you have in the settlement, check out this .pdf document with all the details.

Honda reveals three new turbo VTEC engines, including Civic Type R 2.0L

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

It's fair to say that in recent years, Honda has been viewed as a laggard when it comes to engine and gearbox development, seemingly missing the boat on direct-injection, forced-induction and high gear-count transmissions, among other things. But under its Earth Dreams banner, the Japanese automaker is showing new vigor, with the latest proof being this trio of just-announced powerplants.
Measuring 1.0-liters, 1.5-liters and 2.0-liters in displacement, this array of three- and four-cylinder engines boasts turbocharging and direct-injection along with the latest iteration of Honda's famed VTEC variable valve timing hardware. "Most suitable for small-to-medium-sized vehicles," the largest engine is said to be good for more than 276 horsepower and will slot into the eagerly awaited Civic Type R, iconic red valve cover and all.
Unfortunately, few other details about the hot Civic's engine or any of the others are being made public at this time, and there's no official word about the engines coming to North American in the Type R or any other model. Given that all the engines are complaint with stringent Euro 6 emissions standards, they figure to be clean enough, and Honda says that these have been developed as global powerplants, so we'd be shocked if they didn't come ashore in new or updated products over the next few years... even if they leave the CTR on the boat.

Honda shines the spotlight on Project Drive-In success

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Project Drive-In, a Honda-sponsored campaign to save drive-in theaters across the country, is beginning to bear fruit, as the first theaters have been informed that they'll be getting free digital projectors. Many theaters still use 35-millimeter film, which is being phased out rather aggressively in the movie industry. The move to digital, meanwhile, requires nearly a six-figure investment, forcing many drive-ins to close up shop for good.
The first phase of the campaign saw the public vote for their favorite drive-in, with the top five getting a free digital projector, courtesy of Honda. There's some touching reaction videos of the owners being informed that they'd won down below. The next phase in the program takes place on Indiegogo, where Project Drive-In is trying to raise $100,000 for the drive-in that's gotten the next highest number of votes. If the Indiegogo campaign reaches that figure before its expiration on October 7, it'll make the donation and reset the meter to save another theater.
Take a look down below for the video from Honda on Project Drive-In, and then do yourselves a favor, and head over to the Project Drive-In Indiegogo campaign, and make a donation.
