Epic driving Fenton 🤘I wish we had a second day with it to test out 265’s in the front for sharper steering feel.
Fantastic car man. Great job on the build. What a machine!
incredible build! so u just dropped it off at Evasive and got it back as such? how was fenton's PB vs yours?
@@KuostA thank you sir! I can’t give enough credit to everyone who works there, my car was inspired by the many cars that they have built years before my car was put together like this. Their s2000’s and r35 gtr. I did drop the car off to evasive motorsports, however, not just all in one go. It took a lot of time over the course of many years. Both of us were warming up to the car, to the track, before we could really set some good laps. The car was not optimally set up for Sonoma, as it was set up for a little bit of oversteer. Also, later in the day, the transmission gave out after years of track use and that ended up cutting our day short right when I was getting acclimated to the car’s behavior/limits at Sonoma. So no fast lap times to write home about that weekend :(. The car has more potential in it than the opportunity we had to get there that weekend.
Me: "Zygrene sure has made a lot of S2000 videos."
Zygrene: *Posts new S2000 content.*
Me: "Sick." *Watches immediately.*
I feel like this whole channel was just an excuse for him to drive every S2000 in existence and I'm not even mad about it.
Glad you're not mad because as long as my channel exists, I will post S2000 content
Time for Fenton to build an s2k with forced induction. The s2k is in your blood! Do it!
@@sdlausen1 damn damn DAMN
Holy shift the way you down shifted 3 gears at 420ish marks is godly
@@MyOaAesis now if I can only translate that into a decent lap time...
Miata owners dead silent in chat. This gave me goosebumps. Destroying GT cars with ease. There is nothing like a S2K.
Owned both, I actually prefer the handling characteristics of my NA6 vs my old AP1 but obviously one car had a much higher start point as well as ceiling. F20C can easily hold 400-500whp without doing anything but valvetrain work. Extremely capable engines, quite literally the 2JZ of the 4 banger world when it comes to being over engineered.
And yet, nothing I would want more than F20C or F22C1 in my Miata lol match made in heaven if steering geometry didn’t have to be altered so K it is. MX-5 is more friendly at the limit 😅
when I owned my S2000 the first time it was an 02, had a precision 5858bb turbo on it and made about 430whp. Its was the most insane things I've driven because of the instant spool and lightweight. It was great but I really enjoyed the car so much more with stock power. But I never had an issue.
Why did you enjoy it less with more power if it was trouble free?
@@RichJ_youtube way more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. I have a GT4 so similar power, not too much heavier and more torque. Feels like the perfect balance. With the s2000 I think a 300whp supercharged kit would have been the way to go
Damn, what a weapon. Looks like a lot of fun. Motor sounds like it was made to take the boost.
That was sick! Maybe it was the engine noise, or maybe it was some of the other cars on track with you; but this video was a really fun one and really conveyed how nutso that thing must be to pilot. Thanks for sharing!
There's nothing like a turbo S2K! It's a wonderful machine for sure.
I've been telling myself I want to keep my track s2k NA....watching this video may end up costing me a lot of money haha.
What a beast of a car and nice driving Fenton! 👏🏻
Evasive doesn’t miss. My favorite featured build yet
Best s2000 review yet
This video makes me want to build a turbo S2K
Brother, excellent job. My eyes were glued. I didn't look up the entire time. Another excellent video!
What a car
What a car! Love the sound! Giant slaying speed. Looks a real hard challenge to master but you would never get tired of driving and pushing this car! Fantastic. Excellent video too Fenton, the most enjoyable track vid I've seen perhaps, amazing footage showing the action perfectly, all your inputs, the sound, the captions! I Lol'd when you said you were going for a hotlap and immediately the first 3rd gear right hander pushed the rear out a touch! Thank for bringing us along for the ride!
Vtech + Boost = wicked fun
Such a cool car. I think I'd rather have this over the C6Z you drove. Both are awesome cars.
All in the suspension and footwork! The WiseFab Grip Kit for the S2000 is pricey but works well with the MCS coilovers and Yoko A052 tires. I noticed how planted the car was in corners and no sawing at the steering wheel. I’d bet this S2000 would be relatively quick around Sonoma with an N/A engine.
Nice driving Fenton!😊
Nice piloting! I was immersed into the whole video🔥
I was also running my K20 eg with lightspeed this same day.
Lucky you for driving such a beast of a s2k! Pretty much time attack build other than maybe less serious hardcore aero. ❤🎉👍
Was that Yunni's Car Stuff at 13:20 ? 😂
Anyways, would love to see more boosted s2000 on the channel.
based off the videos you post, no surprises you'd notice and know that.
This video makes me wanna go boost now 🤣
The spirit of Senna is in you, go Zygrene
Finally an s2000 that has voltex over fenders. I feel like you see asm over fenders way too often.
Fenton is Mr. S2000 🔥
I know the aero and roll cage are going to completely transform this car. I haven't seen the video yet since I'm at work but I'll see it later.
Humbling mustang owners about their choice of purchase since 2013 🤘😂 keep doing your thing man! I wonder how comparable this would be to a gen 1 brz given the same mods (my current dd)
The sos kit is made for midrange so its perfect on the track. You definitely can stick with that gt350 but after 120 its a losing battle
Spooli boi is a thing? Oh boi 🙃
Sounds better with a turbo ngl
would love to know more on your opinions on the wisefab. does it make a noticeable difference? it seems you notice the under steer or mention a little less feel and when driving a car thats been equip with it. ty
@zygrene, can you comment on the EVS door cards? Seems to give a good 1-2" more room in the footwell and door panel
A052’s fit wider than the size marked & have numb mid corner feel
How can one fit 295s? Is the grip kit needed? I've got spoon FFenders and ASM RFenders. Or what is the widest without the wisefab grip kit?
I wonder how reliable F20C is with a turbo
They've made over 900 on stock block
Very reliable
@@umaireg6 but for how long is the Q.
There's turbo s2s with over 200k so yea it's reliable if you stay on oil changes
Steering wheel was still pretty dead even with wisefab kit? I thought they were aluminum with spherical bushings and they help tremendously with steering feel?
@@JBaek24 might have been offset by the wheel/tire setup
Still a symptom of the EPS, perhaps?
I love it!! Can’t wait to boost my GR86!!
Is this the twin scroll kit?
If it's the sost kit than yes should be
Avoid the Wisefab Grip Kit. Poorly engineered and for the price that it is you would expect something much better.
what makes it poorly engineered? What do u rec instead?
Does this have the stock brake booster and master cylinder? You probably need to scrap the OE system for proper track feel.
Ain’t no Miata tho
I know. A Miata could never do that.
right. in this case, it's better.
transmission broken finally due to no reinforcement on it.

yes he needs to ditch these semi street race cars and build a real dedicated track car
