I want to convert a Acura RSX to electric but I was going to use a Nissan Leaf drive train (because I want to keep it FWD). Plus the RSXs trunk space is enormous for what it is (they're basically mini trucks lol). This thing is so badass! Definitely on another level from anything I could ever do lol.
Sick build and done by the one and only rywired the legend and beast. Only one can top this is Mr. Mishimoto which I hope he does 🙌🏻 over all great content Jason
This is great. I'm gonna be starting my own conversion soon. I'm gonna use a honda. I'm not sure what model yet but I'm gonna do one. If Elon can sell $100K cars with defects, then I can build my own electric car.
Wow, my wife's s2k is close to stock and she said our tesla will never be equal to the experience s2k gives. I have an evo9 and feels the same way. Great project tho.
Wow that's cool, would've preferred if it were an NSX cuz the S2K is a manual icon & it'd be cool to see what speeds the NSX frame is capable of, but awesome nonetheless
1:28 "I really wanted to build a hybrid car, but to get my feet wet I'm gonna do one that's full electric" What??? Why would you take a step backwards and build a hybrid? Makes 0 sense to me, all electric is the only way to go.
The future of cars, kids will be talking about upgrading with duracell or energizer, wealthy kids will show off their regenerative wind power at the back in replacement of spoilers. So old dudes will still be cool until age 70.
Amazing ! I wanna do my EG hatch, but im not sure where to start on fitment I lack experience in that department. I'm curious why didn't Ryan keep the S2000 Transmission or at least put a joystick selector , knobs look weird to me .
I would keep the 5speed trans if it’s possible ! I’ve seen some ev swaps with h pattern and clutch they are super burnout machines ! But auto is the future of today and tomorrow
Really unique design S2000,but I really hope Honda doesn't go in the EV direction in my opinion! Nothing in the world like the sound of a VTEC engine.#SaveVTEC
Hondapro Jason- I have a question- I have a 2013 accord coupe V6 EXL and at 59210 the motor started to knock, I’ve always taken care of my car through Honda , I’ve had Over 22 oil changes always used mobile 1 synthetic never raced the car etc my question is -Is the VCM a problem in this year car ? If yes can I delete the vcm ? Thankfully the engine was replaced at Honda and cost only 200 bucks , the engine only has 28,818 miles and since it was sitting I had them lub the engine at install and since the engine was out and sat for 3-4 years I had them do timing belt , water pump , all the seals , all the fluids and spark plugs ( engine blowing actually saved me money because it was time to do all those items anyways and it only cost me about 750 bucks for everything. I just want to keep the car especially with the low mileage I feel like I have a new car but I’m worried that I’ll be going through the same things in a few years .. Also would it be smart to change oil from mobile 1 to AMSOIL ? Thank you
Full synthic 15w30 is perfect for that engine 0w30 is only good for the break in period of the engine. Change it every 15k miles together with oil,petrol and airfilter.
Damn, that’s so cool to see build the EV S2000. S2000 looked awesome and creative how to build the car like this, great job!👍
I have just confirmed with Ryan that when I visit California in Mid September I should be able to drive this EV S2000!!!!
This thing needs to be at h-day in Epping
This is a very ambitious project. He should be very proud of how far he's taken it!
i agree 100%

Even if Honda makes the next S2000 an electric sports car, I would still be happy because it's still a RWD sports car that still has the Honda spirit!
But then it would be weird because you can't hear the high revving VTEC engine. The S series was all high revving coupes.
another honda bandwagon
I definitely agree with you there.
But at the end of the day it is still a S2000
Future: Hey pop up your hood! Let me see how big batteries you have in there!
Just imagining that , sounds so gay .
@@danielexpertyoyo RIGHT
There's about 100k in batteries under the body
Wow. Didn't know this car existed. It's like seeing into the future. Crazy!
a lot of blood sweat and tears went into the project. Made props to Rywire and his team for creating something like this.
The future of motoring, there’s already a company in UK that retro fits Hybrid engines into old classic cars
rywire has the craziest hondas.. he made the s2000 futuristic a f
Can't wait for the follow-up video of the 100% finished product!!!
me too because I wanna Drive it!!
if anyone can do it it's someone who is a god at wiring! very well done it almost looks OEM *hint hint Honda*
I want those wheels for my Model 3 they are sick!!
This should be the goal, to convert old cars into EVs instead of making everyone buy new ev cars and create more trash for the planet. 👍
Ryan is amazing at what he does! Thank you brother for bringing his new built for us to see before show view
Hi HondaPro. Darrin Thompson here. Love you bro.
Super sick!!! Ev tuning is so fascinating
I tried to finish the video, but you talking over your guest did it for me 🤦🏾♂️, I kno your excited but let him finish b4 u begin.
17:15 seconds in the video: That look by the s2k owner said everything
Funny Jason said “this is creepy”. If future generations 20 years from now ever drive a stock s2000 they will say “this is creepy”.
EVtec just kicked in yo
Sick build and done by the one and only rywired the legend and beast. Only one can top this is Mr. Mishimoto which I hope he does 🙌🏻 over all great content Jason
Amazing work and craftsmanship from Rywire as always 👍🏻
Finally an s2000 that does not sound like its coming apart at full "throttle"
I love those wheels. 10/10 cool factors.
Mad respect to this guy
Love it but please please please change the name to TES2K.
Very cool and well thought out!
This freaking car is so clean he did a fantastic job on this 😎👌🏼 this is the future electric swaps 😋🙌🏽
aaa oooh Honda get this guys number and make EV S2000 just like this please, just beautiful!!!!
thanks rywire for making our swaps easy
Nice work! I like the details and the handsome looking parts. Especially the Battarywires under the hood 👍
Now that's unique! Great build.
This is great. I'm gonna be starting my own conversion soon. I'm gonna use a honda. I'm not sure what model yet but I'm gonna do one. If Elon can sell $100K cars with defects, then I can build my own electric car.
Electric ⚡️ vtec kicked in YO !!!!
Yeah Ryan that's fantastic i Honda might reach out to you for techinical advice. I wouldn’t be surprised; just a great job Ryan
Wow, my wife's s2k is close to stock and she said our tesla will never be equal to the experience s2k gives. I have an evo9 and feels the same way. Great project tho.
What’s the first thing you did to your Type R ? I would want to know so I can have ideas on what i could do to mine
I painted mine about 3 months after I got it. LOL Hondata is what I would do as a performance mod 1st
This is such a unique project! Love it!
i agree and I can not wait to drive it
Definitely an impressive build that S2K is.
Yoda that you
Would have been cool if he kept the original dash and also if he took us for a proper drive!
Going ry wire need a ev s2k
Freaking awesome, where do I get one to put next to my petrol s2k ⛽ vs. 💡
Wow that's cool, would've preferred if it were an NSX cuz the S2K is a manual icon & it'd be cool to see what speeds the NSX frame is capable of, but awesome nonetheless
Very cool but why would you title it a Tesla car when you literally said they were too expensive?
I love my S2k as is, but now I kinda want to buy a junker one and have him throw a duel motor setup in it.
Such an amazing build, I cannot wait to see this thing get more refined
1:28 "I really wanted to build a hybrid car, but to get my feet wet I'm gonna do one that's full electric"
What??? Why would you take a step backwards and build a hybrid? Makes 0 sense to me, all electric is the only way to go.
Wow incredible
Do more on this!!!
i will for sure, Thank You
How! Just ground breaking. Don’t be surprised if S2K owners reach out to to convert their S2000. You’ll be making Road & Track story on you👌👌 -
I like the design
Great job excellent work but just because it’s electric doesn’t mean it Hass to look silly
These stickers are dangerous and inconvenient but I sure do like my sponsors. Lol
Daily these cars and one day its gonna be gone when you get out from work or a restaurant
Love rywire products clean build can't wait to see this
This is freaking neat.
Jason & rywhire da man!!!!
So great talking with Ryan
I love the RIMS.Wow the inside looks amazing The whole car 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damn… that is a great project! Can’t wait to see it completed!
The future of cars, kids will be talking about upgrading with duracell or energizer, wealthy kids will show off their regenerative wind power at the back in replacement of spoilers. So old dudes will still be cool until age 70.
Never seen ev look that good lol
Jason Statham really likes this S2000.
lol
Great job !!!! Q&A is Honda getting involved with this project HP Jason?
Cool video. Just finished. Where’s the VTEC? Just kidding.
That car should be epic fast.
This is sooo cool
i agree
Amazing ! I wanna do my EG hatch, but im not sure where to start on fitment I lack experience in that department. I'm curious why didn't Ryan keep the S2000 Transmission or at least put a joystick selector , knobs look weird to me .
The selector knob looks and feels great in person
I would keep the 5speed trans if it’s possible !
I’ve seen some ev swaps with h pattern and clutch they are super burnout machines !
But auto is the future of today and tomorrow
5 speed is not necessary for an electric motor, that’s why Tesla transmissions only have one gear.
@@LordLoMR2 makes sense
Why would you make a perfectly good s2k no at risk of burning to the ground?
Amazing he’s paving the way. Is he running any kind of traction control
Really unique design S2000,but I really hope Honda doesn't go in the EV direction in my opinion! Nothing in the world like the sound of a VTEC engine.#SaveVTEC
You can listen to your VTech while I pass you in the electric Honda sports car....
@@WezleyB Maybe but also maybe not! As long as I'm not getting beat by a domestic I'm o.k.🤣

Back to the Future, instead of a hover conversion we have electric conversion
Looking good
he s2000 engine is the main thing that makes it such a great car. This kinda ruined that
rim's are strange. I like the front end.
Is this the one that's been being built for 10 years or so?
I think Tesla is going to end up being a OEM supplier for both cars and charging stations in the way IBM and Sony and even Samsung does
I see GM being more of a supplier. LIke Ryan in the video said, the tesla components were really expensive so for the batteries he used Chevy EV ones.
2 coolest car mixed...
I'm in love
Next video an EV Maztesla RX7!
Change the headlights to led strips
A s 2k with no vtec eh you can keep that one 🤦♂️
And its a auto 🥲
yea this is an easy way to ruin a great car. what a waste.
How do you not pop the hood unless
Everyone is late to find out about this. It was showcased like a year ago.
il futuro è arrivato... il v-tec sarà sempre nei nostri cuori ma dobbiamo andare avanti.
At least he made it himself. EV fans are excited cause more fast cars that require no skill from the owner to be built are coming out
Sick
Auto s2k ? Damn u beat it 2 it
Beautiful
SICK!
Jesse. Don't do it. I bet you he has more than 100 grand beneath the trunk of that car!
Nice project but that grill and those wheels are ridiculous
Epic!
impressive? we didn't even get to see it drive lol any car can idle/roll and look nice. Lets see some rips.
Rips are coming as soon as the car is ready 👍
Is this an interview or who talks more over one another?
Right?! Right! Right
Say big dawg
Delete this
Hyrbid nsx integra 😳 rear wheel integra mid engine hot hatch ev?🤯
How much does this cost?
