No Longer a Civic Owner

[01S2K]

Hey Folks

I am no longer a Civic Owner. My EM1 was written off July 1st. Was going through a intersection and had green light and a car coming the other way turned left in front of me.

The good news is I have a new ride. A 2001 S2000.

I have been browsing this site and posting for 3 years now so I will still be around but probably mostly lurk. Thanks for all your help with my civic questions over the years.

[Silver Bullet]

[Kumo]

You lucky bastard. That is so going to be my next car.

[Genuine Rolla]

nice nice bro. Could we get some pics of the new ride..?

[01S2K]

Here is the new ride. I didn't get those wheels with it though. I have the Stock 16s which is fine with me for now

The S2K is hot, any plans for it?

[01S2K]

Intake Possibly Exhaust. Small Stereo. 2 W ay pager alarm. Strut tower brace. It came with Tein Flex Coilovers with EDFC. Maybe some rims and upgraded brakes next year.

[wmertz]

You lucky bastard.... You even got the lip :drool:. I'd say get a CF hood and OEM wing and call it a day with it.

How's VTEC in that puppy? :lol:.

[jb0ne]

:O

lucky. lucky. lucky.
lucky.

That is Silverstone Grey.

The VTEC in it is crazy from about 6000 RPM all the way to 9000 RPM the car pulls like a freight train.

The Lip is a little beat up will be getting it fixed up this winter but that is what happens having a low car on northern roads.

Im not a pro on s2000 but what are you seeing that makes you believe its a 2004+

[01S2K]

Yep it is a 2001 with a Second Gen 04+ front end conversion. Very sharp hooked_on4

Ohh nice!

Yeah i want one soo badly, it's my next car for sure :)

[hooked_on4]

Out of curiousity what'd you pay for it?

BTW I've heard issues w/cylinder 4, something about upgrading the injectors to prevent tossing rods in 1st gens. You heard of that? Maybe worth lookin into.

[01S2K]

I haven't heard of any engine issues with the F20C I checked a bunch of user forums (MSN Autos and Edmunds.com were a couple) before I bought it. Nobody was reporting any engine issues.

I paid $22250 CDN which is 21153 US. Car has 100000 KM or 60000 Miles on it and it included the Tein Flex Coilovers and EDFC Control Unit.

[Mr. Lin]

those are some of the best bbs's made.
LMs ftmfw. too bad you didn't get em.

[01S2K]

Buddy wanted an arm and a leg for them. Plus they were 18s with ridiculous 265 40 R18 Tires on them. For the roads around here they did not work for Southern Cali sure.

Nice ride, also nice it came with EDFC. :thumbs up
