Hey Lee! my car insta is down still. I am on FB though! what's your IG?

@@bornagainmotoring @leesrandomadventure : )

I can relate to your love for the S2K! As for the c8, I basically just drive it to work. When I’m with the family I drive the MDX TYPE S

It was mostly already bled, but yeah it should be done.

Amen!

In my opinion, YUP

I agree, the AP1 is more classic looking

Thanks!

Directly from the Honda dealership near me

Yes, this is an FD RX-7!

@@bornagainmotoringoh！

It is: 12310-PCX-010

@@bornagainmotoring Thanks, did you also get the 17130-PCX-003 valve and 94109-14000 washer? Did you also replace the little hose that connects to it?

@Youknowme2222 I did get the valve and washer, it was required. The hose I kept the same 👍

That’s right - while an ND2 could be a lot of car for a new driver NA/NB/NC could be a good tool. Not that the ND is terrifying or anything, it’s just in a different league than the previous ones. AP1 is king

There’s a 950 mile one on BAT right now if you have deep enough pockets!

Nice, I owned a ‘15 STi and I loved it. Those cars make excellent dailys! With that and an AP1, you’re all set.

Yes, an expensive toy and hobby 😃

This was Irohazaka but I have some videos on akina as well

But I need both the strakes and the headlights 😂

I really like those blue on blues… like sitting in the ocean. Great buy, especially for it being the best year of AP1s

Yeah, Lexus is nice but Toyota plays it too safe in the performance department.

@bornagainmotoring I like your style I own a frs. I would love to own a s2000 one day

@@bornagainmotoring Do you think a Porsche 718 would be a good upgrade from the s2000?

@kgthegreatone943 I hope you get the opportunity my friend. FRS is still a great platform!

@huudo2097 Which trim level? I think if you only have one car and you have to get rid of the S, for sure. It’s superior in many ways. Will definitely be more refined and will be a faster sports car. I have a feeling that if you did do it you would still miss the S down the line.

No doubt, with 6k miles on the clock.

While I do miss the tundra, the Type S has definitely kept me satisfied.

I kepta 2017 Tundra Tundra Ltd crew. Love the truck. Use it as a truck. Have two MDX type S as daily drivers. Love them all for their purposes. I think the Tundra will stay with us forever. The MDX type S cars are amazing. Hoping to keep the a long time too.

Yup, the price has somewhat leveled but a good condition one is still pretty pricey.

@@bornagainmotoring A lot fewer of them than the Boxster. I had a 1997 Boxster paid 25k in 2002. Sold it 2 yrs ago for 12 k. Had fun with it for many years without much of a financial hit considering how much I used it.

Absolutely fantastic ride - my only gripe is the range, not necessarily the mileage. Tank is a little small but hey, it’s a performance SUV, what did I expect?

@@bornagainmotoring Range should be 400 miles. Great vehicle otherwise. I get about 22 hwy miles per gallon. I love that it is two cars in one.

@davidjones2059 if I’m lucky I’m getting 300 on a tank with mixed driving. Seems others are getting about the same. Wish I could get 400…

That’s the S2000 ownership summed up pretty well! How many miles does yours have now? Have you ever been tempted into selling it or had people right make you an offer?

@@bornagainmotoring I bought it with 56,000 miles on it 12 years ago and after putting on about 5000 fun filled miles per year, it's now up to 117,000 miles. Still drives like new and still has the original soft-top in pretty good condition after a refurbishing. Yes, people have made advances to buy, but I always quickly discouraged them from even thinking I would sell. However, my realtor friend is a young married guy who absolutely loves my car and offered to buy it outright whenever I decided to stop driving, so I might do that since I know that he would take very good care of it. I'm now 75 years old with some major health and mobility issues so I know I won't be driving indefinitely. One has the choice to have a magnificent car like the S2K sit all silent and secure in a garage to keep the mileage low, but it wasn't designed or built for that. It was meant to be driven freely on twisty roads with the engine screaming and the top down or take someone in style wherever they want to go. That's the difference between a mere collector and a true driver. I'm glad that you picked up the AP1 with the 9K redline and the twitchy, sometimes hair-raising handling. Mods can be added to improve things. My best mod was adding a folding cupholder of all things. Trust me, it works great. Myself as an old-timer, have kept mine as OEM stock as I can to maintain the original feel of the car. Others can take a highly modified route and that's fine too. Enjoy your beautiful S2K, take pride in it and above all, have lots of fun in it. Cheers!

@uffdad8211 thank you for sharing your experience. I pray all the best during your health and mobility issues. There’s nothing like the AP1, or the S2000 for that matter and your words couldn’t be more true. Happy motoring my friend!

@@bornagainmotoring Thanks and many happy miles in your S2K, my friend. Take care and be well.

Street-able track MR2 sounds amazing! I like those spyders, especially with a hardtop. They don’t get enough credit. I pray you reach your goal soon and it’s better than you’d hoped.

@@bornagainmotoring i am super lucky! its a factory hardtop imported from switzerland if i remember correctly, its all the OEM silver, i appreciate it a lot, im very excited

@xdxanadu8500 do you have an IG? I’d love to check out the progress when you get it.

@@bornagainmotoring rrydderrr, should only be 7.5 more weeks till i get it, i have a few pics of the mr-s posted right now🙏

Thanks. Legend has it that real recognize real 🤝

Right on! Tasteful mods you’ve done. I’m actually doing the premium floor mats next as I can’t stand the basic ones 😃

Agreed! The F20c is definitely my favorite and the body is the classic look that I feel the designer always intended.

NFR looks sooo good though! I wish LBP was on the AP1

NFR gang! Been dailying my 01 since '10

@huudo2097 how many miles?

@@bornagainmotoring 340000 kilometres (211266 miles), I'm from Australia! Also born again brother! Just recently changed master cylinder myself as well as slave cylinder. Did a valve adjustment too and the car is running great. Next going to change timing chain, guides and tensioner, then all the suspension bushings, then full respray...

@huudo2097 my brother in Christ, God bless you. Thanks for stopping by and dropping a note. All that work, sounds like you’ll get another 340000 out of it, I sure hope so anyway!

God bless you

If I lived in a region where I had to park it for the winter, I’d go crazy knowing it’s just sitting in my garage… glad you got a little appetizer until spring. Hopefully spring starts sooner for you out there!

@@bornagainmotoring Keep up the great vids! Fun watching your work and enhancements to your S2K. Sounded like from your vid that you had a new child. Congrats!

@FourTheWheels truly appreciated! Thanks for tuning in and supporting the channel, and sharing part of your S2K ownership 🙏🏽

And I would be shouting “TAKE MY MONEY”
