o_O S2000 mine is pretty bad around town, is yours bad too when it comes to power? Or is mine being a pos? It’s an 07 s2000 with 45,000 miles. I love it but the no low end power is almost dangerous when I have a crazy Prius driver on my ass at a stop light.

[@kneebarx]

@@ryanthompson2893 even supercharged doesnt have the same torque as a stock 350z. s2000 wont move until 4k

[@ryanthompson2893]

H P I am wondering if Honda tuned the low rpm camshaft lobes for fuel economy instead of power. This makes me think that aftermarket camshafts might help with that low end power problem. I also understand that a bigger engine is almost always a sure fire way to fix a under powered car. I’ve heard of people putting small block Chevy v8’s in Mx-5’s. Hell, I think a company may even make a kit for it. I wonder what it would take to bolt in a 350 v8 if it’d even fit under the hood into an S2k.

How do you like them? Grip vs tread life? I'm running Bridgestone's RE71R in 205/50/15 on my Miata and am looking to try something else when these are worn.

[@o_OS2000]

RE71R is definitely a bit faster than ADO8R (I am on RE71R now on the S2000). Yokohama does have the A052 for track that is great as well but more track oriented. RE71R is a fantastic tire.

[@kylegilmore3810]

Thanks for the input. My car is strictly a street car, albeit driven very aggressively on very twisty back roads, and I've found the RE71R to be almost be too much. The grip is MEGA and It's almost not fun to drive daily because I can only use max grip so frequently. +1 Sub

Recently I upgraded to a Hero4 and Hero4 session, both do a much better job of capturing accurate color when driving at night.

[@jaxon.frandrup]

now that’s what i call, knowing the road. always go take a slow pass through the road a couple times before ripping it, because before you know it, you’re gonna be kissing a guard rail. quick story time, i was driving the road up south mountain in south phoenix AZ, in my turbodiesel MK4 jetta 5 speed and my buddy was behind me in his integra sedan. this was his first time driving a road like this, and i had done a few touge runs before but never on this road. i was leading, going very easy as it was my first time on this specific mountain pass. up ahead was a sort of “S” bend and i slowed down, rev match down shifted, and took the first corner at about half throttle, and gripped around to the second part of the “S” and behind me i hear tires screeching, and my buddy in the integra took the first part of it too wide and dropped his front right tire, i check my mirror as i’m going around the second part of the S and slow down, to see him sideswipe the guard rail on the second part of the S. he crunched his driver side quarter panel and scraped the whole driver side of his integra on the guard rail. even on our slow pass. make sure to take SERIOUS precautions before attempting to do this. he was okay and i thank god for the guard rail being there, as i could have lost my best friend.

[@-L.u.c.a.-]

Nikolayski that is exactly what I like to see in drivers. People will go around complimenting drivers because they can go fast, but very few compliment a driver like this on their respect for safety. He’s driving quick, but it’s obvious it’s only because he knows the roads as well.

[@yese2769]

@@josephsamsor1698I totally understand what you mean but the problem is that it only takes one mistake around a blind corner and he could go flying into on coming traffic. Mistakes happen and that’s why if you’re gonna go fast go to a track or rent the touge for the day.
