Crikey, forgot how red those seats were!

Anyone had a Honda 2000 by chance before?. Was thinking of doing a switch, although got put off a little when I went to view one in a show room the welding in the engine bay was shocking.
Hoping that they arent all the same

In all of my years owning and reading up on S2000s can't say I've ever heard anyone having a problem with the welds in an engine bay. :confused:

At 25 the engine bay will be the least of your worries.

Yep I meant suspension. What spring rates are the coilies? The Apex Comfys aren't too harsh. Is he on SXOC?

Oh and if it's on coilovers there's no excuse for those cavernous arch gaps

Looks like it's connected to the intake side, which will always be under vacuum?

the intake manifold has a breather line going to the cam cover.

unless it has a one way valve it will be blowing air into the cam cover
