That hood will ruin the look of your car.

that hood actually looks pimp. i like it

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Thu Oct 08, 2009 12:24 am

I think it looks pimp and functional...but I don't think I can pull it off with OEM wheels/stance.

Well then buy those wheels you were looking at, John! They looked great!

They'd go well with the black mesh you'd put in the vents.

trade you my sweet fucking bike with the AEM sticker on it for your S2k

i think you'll end up on top with this deal. you should do it

Indeed.... the 240 hasn't sold yet though.

Hopefully soon....

Tonight I was kind of disappointed in the car.

It seems to drive fine 90% of the time..others it hesitates when I give it gas.

Anyhow it was running decent or so I thought and I lined up with my buddy in his 93 240sx (dohc ka24de). He has intake/header/exhaust... nothing crazy peppy at all.. The S2K should DESTROY it.

We lined up at 40mph on the highway... me in 2nd gear at around 5-6k (in vtec) and we go.. I take it to 8500 and slam 3rd....slam 4th...and hes only 2-3 cars back.

The S2K should have DESTROYED it....

Tomorrow I'm going to get new plugs/map sensor and some other routine stuff. I have a feeling the map sensor / plugs is causing it to miss at certain times.

LULZ, too bad nobody told you that before you bought yours.

I'm thinking driver error, John.

This makes no sense. Since I have bought no hood.

2nd gear in vtec...slam the gas....powershift to 3rd....slam 4th.

There was zero error...lol.

It even spun a little going into 3rd...

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Thu Oct 08, 2009 10:49 am

If you spun the tires you lost traction... driver error.

Replaced the plugs with some NGK Iridiums... fricken $50

Changed my cold air intake out for a short ram and replaced the old dirty filter for a new one.

Cleaned my map sensor

Also got my new "H" Honda badges for the front and rear. The rear never had one when I bought the car so it looked ghetto.

Car looks so good now.

They are the black ones not the mad tyte JDM Red ones.

I still need to get brake caliper paint and do the calipers in black.

I'll probably clean the car up and take some new pictures Tuesday. (work weekend duty)

I need to adjust my valves...as my car seems a little down on power and everyone on the S2K forums was saying it makes a huge difference.

neonslg09 · Post by **neonslg09** » Sat Oct 10, 2009 4:27 pm

How are you supposed to adjust your valves?

And hey, the black ones are just as cool as the red ones.

I want more pictures of this sexy little beast....

s2k's lookin good, always loved em, cant wait to see more

neon2ner · Post by **neon2ner** » Sat Oct 10, 2009 9:19 pm

looks good man.

i think you could rock the hood with the vents, provided you get some crazy offset wheels. work equips? they would look pretty old school, but good...

On the way home from Target tonight I came across a 5.0 Mustang with as far as I could tell an exhaust.

He flew by me then slowed down at around 60 and when I was going to slowly get next to him he hits it with me at his back bumper.

I punch it in 3rd and take er on up to around 8500-8800 rpms and shifted to 4th....put it to the floor about midway through 4th and he is like a bus or so length back.

Gave him a thumbs up as I exited....and snickered the rest of the way home.

Got an 03 OEM Radio from a buddy... (has the clock) and I got the ipod adapter for the back of it.

Now my ipod plays on it and it charges it as well.

I like the OEM look as well.. plus I got the function controls to the left (Mute, Volume, Channel, Mode)

I had to rewire all the wiring harness for the radio. Dip shit before me hacked it all up... le' sigh...

I also drove my buddies 03 with his OEM clutch...and my god do I love it. His is more of a DD car... mine just feels like brute track car..

I don't like it but I do..

Since the car is 98% DD and 2% fun toy I'm going to find an OEMish/feeling clutch to swap mine out with eventually.

The stage 3 racing clutch is for drag racing basically and I don't care to drag it really.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 11:12 am

Plus being for that type of application it won't have the longevity that a street clutch will. Still...moar pics please?

NeonOn19s · Post by **NeonOn19s** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 11:21 am

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 1:06 pm

No PS yet... and it's been raining.... I'm off the next 3 days. We are bound to have 1 day that I Can wash it and shoot some pics.

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Thu Oct 15, 2009 12:41 pm

Do whatever you need to do to buy that package, then sell the struts and springs to make some money back. That setups not low enough but the wheels look good.
