Hot s2k mate! I love em just way to small for my liking lol

I KNOW. I went from the EP3, A nice easy daily car to this, stock height I practically fall into the seats lol, it's very 'cosy' lol

Nice s2k!

Welcome.

Your right about a good forum, I admire your sacrifice of model specific information for a good online community!

hahaha, Yea it seems harder and harder to find an easy going car group / forum, that doesnt want to troll or fight over crap.

nice car mate, so want an s2000 myself but can't bear to sell the dc5 to do it,
good shot going for the hardtop it's a must for a 2000 imo

I think so too, partly because the soft top on there atm is fairly worn (small hole and back window cant see out off) and to replace it is ~ $1500, so it's worth holding onto this top and getting a hardtop for rest of the time, I want to keep a Mugen theme I think, so ill be looking into getting a mugen style hardtop, either in black or CF, whatever comes up first. Not really a fan of the OEM ones, they tend to be more expensive and, idk, look worse I guess. I LOVE the spoon fastback style hardtop, but it seems more permanent and you lose access to the boot, which is something I can't afford to do in this small car lol

Hey, when you come to next ClubITR meet ... bring a usb stick with you and I can give you those photos you requested. Couldn't email them because they are too big and also Hotmail didn't like it. Cant wait to see more progress ...

Got my car back from the mechanic yesterday, sooooo good to be back! clutch is lighter than before, and seems to bite a little harder, this made for an embarrasing exit from the mechanic lol.
Apparently my fuel sender is stuffed, so I need to source another and take it back, because atm it seems to chew through fuel...

[viett]

chewing through the fuel at the current prices must be the worst shit ever.

?? What happened matt!

[mattatnoosa]

Went to the s2ki anzac day cruise yesterday, 2 weeks since getting my new clutch, worn it in etc, all of a sudden felt vibrations in the pedal, then it went all the way in and wouldnt come out. put it into netural and pulle over, tried it again, pedal was out but rock hard, can't engage the clutch...

Lucky one of the other s2000 owners had racq ultra, and got my car towed from out in the bush near nerang back to southside brisbane for free... sitting at the mechanic's now..

said yesterday he thinks the master or slave cylinder is gone..however I doubt it, too close to having a new clutch installed...

[felixR]

Where's it going?

edit: just read the above

[rookie]

Unlucky man. Did you take it back to the same mech that put the clutch in?
