What really brings me pride with this S2000 blog is that I do installs/Parts Reviews of rare or expensive s2000 parts. Parts that usually have just a small blurb written about them on minkara in Japanese and there is barely any in depth information about it anywhere else on the net. We all know… Continue reading Parts Review/ DIY: ASM THROTTLE BODY IS-09 + ASM THROTTLE BODY SPACER IS-09

Parts Review/ DIY: Spoon Sports Hydro-Blue Wide Mirror Glass Set install
Hey guys, I recently installed some Spoon mirrors for my friend’s S2000. Instead of following the instructions it came with and installing the mirrors over the mirror glass, I installed the mirrors onto the OEM plastic mirror housings. This created a very secure mount, and the mirrors do not wiggle at all. I created a… Continue reading Parts Review/ DIY: Spoon Sports Hydro-Blue Wide Mirror Glass Set install

Parts Review/DIY: SPOON ENGINE TRANSMISSION MOUNT SET – S2000 AP1/2
Hey guys, it’s been awhile. Last week I helped my buddy Edwin install Spoon Engine/Transmission mounts on his AP1 S2000. His passenger side Engine mount was worn and he wanted to replace it with an OEM-like solution…..

Parts Review/DIY: Recaro Pole Position on Buddy Club Low Mount Seat Rails (Not Really)
I’m going to attempt another half-ass DIY. I’m installing Recaro Pole Position seats on BuddyClub rails. First off, if you are planning to do this with buddy club rails, stop! Buy a higher quality rail such as Bride, Recaro, Taitec, Nagisa……basically something made in Japan, in my experience they just tend to fit better for… Continue reading Parts Review/DIY: Recaro Pole Position on Buddy Club Low Mount Seat Rails (Not Really)
DIY: How to install DriveShaft Spacers on an S2000 (Sorta)
A few weeks ago I helped a buddy install Spoon Driveshaft Spacers on his s2000. Driveshaft spacers correct the rear suspension geometry when the car is lowered and reduce strain on the CV joints on the axles. We went to “Your Dream Garage” in Baldwin Park, essentially it’s a shop that rents out their lifts… Continue reading DIY: How to install DriveShaft Spacers on an S2000 (Sorta)
Parts Review: Ballade Sports Timing Chain Correction Gear
Parts Review: Ballade Sports Timing Chain Correction Gear It’s funny how when I started this blog years ago BalladeSports wasn’t even a shop.

DIY: Cigarette lighter relocation
Quick mod I did today. I relocated my Cigarette lighter to my center console. I removed the rear bulkhead awhile back so I just had the plug hanging around on the harness. I think it looks a lot cleaner this way and pretty much just slides right in. All I did was remove my roof… Continue reading DIY: Cigarette lighter relocation
Hondata Kpro with RSX Wideband Update
When I had my car running on ITBs, it was running super rich, this probably lead to the demise of my RSX wideband sensor which is not working anymore, but all my other sensors are working perfectly, i.e ECT, Gas, and Etc. I’m not giving up on the rsx wideband yet! I took apart my… Continue reading Hondata Kpro with RSX Wideband Update
ITB + TURBO + S2K?!??!?
This is an oldie I remember from awhile back from the old days of s2ki, pre-2.0. If anyone wanted to do an ITB turbo s2k, it’s been done before. It seems like he is using Jenvey Throttle bodies, a custom Plenum, Meth injection, and a Garret GT35R turbo. According to the thread he dyno’ed at… Continue reading ITB + TURBO + S2K?!??!?
