Description:
- Intro -
I have owned this S2000 for just over 2 years and it's been along one hell of a journey to get to the car that it is today.
Full service history up to just under 100k and still a standard car back then.
The mileage was high but it was in extremely good condition. The paintwork was good, history was good and of course out of the 8 that I had been around to see it was the best one. It was also the only one that had the factory low spoiler, factory front splitter and not to mention the factory hardtop with all the correct wiring for it.
An added plus when shopping for an S2000 is that with this one the alignment was recently done. On my previous S2000 all the alignment bolts had seized and it cost me £600 to get them heated, removed and new ones put in with replacement bushes.
- In my time -
During the 2 years I have had it I didn't start modifying it until only a year ago. At that time I replaced the engine to a lower mileage one to escape any maintenance work that may come from over 100k miles (not that 100k is retirement age for a Honda power plant). The engine came from an S2000 owner that I knew, it was a very strong engine and it was only replaced because he was going for a 1000bhp build (NUTTER!).
I started off with NA and chassis modifications to improve driver feel and response. Freeing up the breathing pairing it with a Spoon ECU. After a while I had wanted to get some more serious power out of it. The car is fast in stock form but having had a turbo S2000 before I wanted to make a true monster.
I purchased a Vortech supercharger and made 380bhp and 270 ft lbs of torque with that. But it's all too easy to extract more power with Honda's awesomely strong F20C. I then made the purchase of the TTS under mounted kit. This is the same kit as the previous HEL Performance Time Attack car (Google for HEL performance S2000).
The TTS kit was installed at Hond-R and nothing has been missed to make sure it is a long lasting install. No hoses left unsecured, no risks of any of the fixtures and everything done to a very high standard to ensure reliability. In my opinion this has been installed to a better standard than HEL's.

I have probably missed out some bits, it's been my pride and joy the whole time I have had it. A modern sports car that can truly rival the most expensive supercars. Call me on 07773460625 to have a chat. I won't entertain low offers or canvassers. I will only give test drives to those who I think are serious buyers. Contact for more photos and videos also follow me on instagram joey.tsang for various photos and videos.
A worthy mention is that my car won best modified award at one of last years S2000 Ace Cafe meets. Was very proud that all the hard work had not gone unnoticed
I've owned 3 S2000s and this is by far the best and most blood, sweat and tears not to mention time and hard earned spent on.
I am willing to take part exchanges (even another S2000) and can remove parts from the car to lower the price. Please call to discuss.
Cars that will be considered most are EK9, DC2, DC5, EG6, B18 and K20 swapped cars, MR2 Turbo, maybe an Evo, Maybe a Scooby if low mileage. But any car that would be potentially easy to sell on I will consider.
A deposit of £500 is needed to secure the car with full payment required in 7 days of deposit being received.
Price of the car as it is is £15,000
