S2000 with dragging rear brakes
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- This custom came all the way from New York for a LHT /Kraftwerks build.
He selected a few extra including a little more power.
It wasn't until we had finished, we found the rear brakes to be dragging . I think it would have made some more if this was corrected.
This used the C38-91 blower, LHT Custom intake manifold and bored out OEM Throttle body.
I like how you guys take care of other peoples cars like if they were yours keep it up👍👍👍👍
To be Honest .... you guys make me want to buy an S2000 so you guys can work on it ... top notch work as i can see ! i enjoy this channel .
The S2000 really is a good car, if it was just 20% bigger I would have another one...lol
Yes that's exactly what I'm doing. They obviously love what they do and are good at it. Its hard to find a good performance shop because you don't know who they really are. Videos solve this issue by giving us visual confirmation that they do good work
I kept thinking about that manifold and throttle body the whole video. Im glad its something yall consider providing for the public!
24:04...George got me with the Circle Game!!! Well played Sir!
Been watching your builds for S2000 projects over the last week since I am in the market now.... I just want to say you make excellent videos and run an excellent shop. I just moved to Venice FL a couple months back, and I am thrilled that I now don't need to ship my car over 1000 miles to use you guys... :) Probably going to be next year sometime when I am ready for the boost but I am coming for one of your centrifugal kits... Thanks for posting all these.
I'm so glad you guys are local to me. I live in Bradenton and WILL be visiting you and having you do work to my CRX, hopefully, soon. i cant wait to meet you guys(and girl). your videos rock. keep it up.
Boost will make the drive back home a lot more enjoyable! Great video as always.
That is the dream build right there. That's about the same stats that I was in my car.
Those gauges are beautifully placed!
I’m saving some money so I can take my S2k to you guys from Texas definitely like the 470hp! Awesome job as always!
Doing a great job, cant wait to take my s2000 from up north to take it down for install. Great videos, and cars
Can't wait to hear more about the intake manifold and throttle body from LHT!!!!!!
Maybe add customer POV test drives after each build?
That's a good idea.
👍🏾 I learn something new after every video. Thank you for the return info!
Love your videos! I grew up loving Honda's. I've owned 88' crx's and wish I had kept them. Now I'm a Mazdaspeed 3 owner. Loving the boost! Keep up the great work!
Another awesome build guys !
Can’t wait to see the next one.
Those are some pretty big numbers! Definitely on par with turbo builds with more reliability!
Nice work on the car! Looking forward to future projects
You guys are awesome. Looking forward to taking mine next year
Love it!! I so want that hard top.... Same color and everything. Car looks great and i know with the SCer on there goes great as well!! Awesome job guys, as usual!! *bow*
Great work John And George . My STI will be heading that way soon for exhaust
Sweet. Did you see the STI exhaust we built a while ago ? ua-cam.com/video/3xnFuhsO6_o/v-deo.html
I need that intake manifold asap. Will be waiting for it to come out. 👍👍👍
Keep making videos please. You’re very knowledgeable
the lht master cylinder brace is the best thing i could have put on my car in terms of brake pedal feel ill probably never take it off. i am able to modulate brake pressure so much better with this piece. its such a nice firm feel
Thanks for the feedback. We get alot of good press on it .
I assume front strut tower braces are a no go after installing this?
they make a thin wall version for it. I have it on my s2000 that lht did the install on. Check out #40 kraftwerks install and u will see it there
Nice fab work on the gauges
Beautiful car and beautiful work as usual 👍🏻
14:55 you guys crack me up, really, love the content, love the jokes, keep it up - from Cape Town
Amazing!!! Love the work!! You guys are the best!
Always such great work and videos 👌🏼👌🏼
More Bruce 😂 that was hilarious. Great work and great numbers
Oh and I still want to do a K swap in my Ef Sedan one day lol
Bruce is a great guy. He's the modern day Santa ;)
awesome car and superb work as always...
Love your work, once I finish a swap to a Nissan I was thinking of getting in touch with you guys to get some quotes on fabbing up a few things.
I'll be there in May! From NJ lol awesome video John
Thanks, We'll make it worth while :)
Clean work as always.. love it bro
Amazing video. I really enjoyed this video 👍👍👍
Great Work! love seeing these!think i may upgrade my C38-81 to a 92 for better airflow at the same PSI keeping everything stock
You guys have the best spirited shop in Florida, but I like Jack Cecil in Palm Beach FL too
Thanks. I've heard good things about jack and sent him tuning for GTRs which we don't do.
Lht you guys are awesome 😀
Thanks so much :)
Legit shop! Show all the work!
A+ ! keep up the good work
Great job as always!
Awesome work. Love the videos.
Damn it. I'm going to be getting my uncle's '91 crx si, hopefully in the next couple months. With 32,000 original miles, it's showroom perfect. Everything is factory stock, and although it's low miles, it's all nearly 30 years old.
LHT is the only shop I would trust to go through it thoroughly with love and close attention.
The problem is I'm in southern California.
You know how expensive it's going to be to ship my car to Florida and back every time I need a service?
It would probably be cheaper and easier to ship John and his minions back and forth.
How about it guys? I'll fly you first class and put you up in a proper hotel. Make sure you guys have a proper shop to work in.... Huh huh?
No really, when I know exactly when I'll be getting the car I'll be emailing you....
That sounds like a great car. I have owned and worked on many CRXs and still have a soft spot for them. I don't want sound like I'm bragging, but I was possibly the first to make AC fit with a B18c1( 1995), first ITR Hydro , First Jackson racing blower on a B18C( 1998) conversion (1998) , and did 100s of B motor swaps. I used to try and make the CRX an ITR but be 100% OEM feel. I should make a video about them. I know there's many CRX fans out there.
LHTPerformance I've had 4 crx's all of them 1991 si, 1 b18c type r, 1 b18a1 turbo, 1 b16a5 turbo, 1 b20/gsr head sleeved block full on drag race set up. More aftermarket than Honda. 590whp dyno-jet.
I've been trying to buy my uncle's crx since I turned 16, so literally 22 years now. Its maybe 91.5 out if 100 in showroom freshness. It's almost perfect. I want to make it 100/100 you know. That's probably not actually possible but it's my desire.
It's always been garaged, it has only ever been serviced at Honda, I think it had a 30k mile service at like 15k and probably 15 years ago.
I watch your videos, I know how you work, and I want you work on it. It's really no big deal to throw it on a truck, fly out there and knock it out. I've always wanted to do some Florida sport fishing anyways.
Anyways man. I respect what you guys do. And I'll shoot you an email or give you a call when I have it in hand.
LHTPerformance CRX vid would be amazing !
Im saving right now to get my CRX to your shop this summer. I have a newly built (B18c1) just passed the break in stage, I want to go kraftwerks with Go Autoworks intercooler, and piping package. Im in Texas, ill be making the trip to FL. Would love to have a Kraftewerks/LHT CRX!!
Nothing can go according to plan if everything goes according to schedule.
That usually ends up George and I burning the midnight oil
👍 always quality
Fantastic work 👍
Love watching your videos. 🙏🔥
You guys ROCK !
Great job guys
John! love your videos bro! you guys are top notch :-) is autofocus enable on your nice camera (it might help the focusing issue you are having)
It's set on Auto Focus. I will try and set it to manual and see how it goes.
Tab orientation on thermostat makes it easier to bleed with thermostat in correct position.
White Chocolate Mocha. *Thumbs up*
It is my favorite :)
Please add pov from test rides! 🙂
So badass
John, it might be time for a new camera, buddy! Haha Been watching LHT's vids for a long time now. Keep up the good stuff!
It's a G7X and not that old. I have a new SONY 6300 I will be using soon. The Canon is just easy and light.
So educational. Subscribed
Thanks for going into detail on the different Clutch Masters kits, I've learned more about them through your videos than anywhere else, including Clutch Masters themselves. I had the FX300 and aluminum flywheel and had issues and replaced it with the FX250 on the reps recommendation. Never got a straight answer for the failures after sending it all back for inspection to them but the FX250 is doing well so far. Do you guys run the lightened flywheels on the S2000's?
When should I be looking at going return fuel line setup? Only if I can't hold proper AFR's? I can hold 11.5-1 to 6800 redline 10PSI on the return-less stock pump stock rail with RDX's on my Kraftwerks C15-60 equipped 07'FIT, anything to worry about not having an FPR under that setup? Tuned on Hondata BTW.
Thanks for all the quality content LHT team!
I'm not sure the HP limits on your set up. The 06+ S2000 I like to run a return system after 430whp.
Hey John, where did you get the 1:24 scale "S"? Looks exactly like mine!
I wonder how much all this costs. I want to do this too when I get a s2k. Can't wait! You guys are awesome!
Wonder no more, Email us at LHTSales@aol.com and we'll be happy to help.
470 nice! I’ll be here soon for around the same lol
I would be very interested in those gauge pods if you could make more of them!
We make some in the future, we've had some interest in them.
UPS guy!
Beast!!
Wow, that bracket looks good. The dragging brake is weird.
Very good job guys
@24:04, I see you LHTPerformance
Is there anyway to buy gauge pods like those from you guys? I've been looking for some and haven't found anything I like but those are perfect.
It might be something we'll offer if there's demand
Hey LHT do you guys do anything for Acura TL? I have an 06. Great work like always!
Where are you guys located? Love the content, found the channel a couple of days ago. You may have a new customer here.
Diablo99V Florida
What cam shafts and cams do you guys recommend for a stock internal motor with all bolt ons? thx NO TURBO
I would like to have seen this car "in action" before you sent it back. ;)
Nice job! Which fuel is used?
Have you ever worked on a v6 j35y1 honda ? Looking to get mine custom tuned i run ktuner, and possibly turbo in the future
You fellows do a great job! I have a 2005 S2000 and am curious ....just “ ballpark”, about what is the cost for a similar job like the one you did on this car? Thanks. Tom Cross, Murfreesboro, TN
I’m in California. Is getting the car supercharged a problem passing Smog?
Depends on the kit you use and depends on which part of California you are in.
Great job guys!! wish i had a supercharger on my s2g, one day, You mite want to discountect the battery,
G Dakota MD , Acually im a ase certified mechanic, but a piece of paper doesnt mean shit ! anyone can study for a test and pass , its untill you can perform the work in the shop that counts!!lol
G Dakota MD , Smh!
Looks guys I really enjoy the videos but if you want to be competitive you have to add final product test drives. I'm not going to subscribe until this happens and it doesn't cost you a dime.
jayknight139 Awwwwwe, well, to win your vote we’ll implement that right away. Lol. It is a good idea, I often forget to do it. 👍🏻. Thanks for the comment
@@LHTPerformance Awsome I really appreciate the response ,I'll be waiting lol. Thanks for your time.
Very interested in your work. Looking to go with a kraftwerks ss.
What helped this S produce 470 vs the other you’ve done at 410-4-30
MrjdmZombie Garcia the throttle body I think, this new from LTH
GSHeverything _27 perhaps the manifold and the tb combo ?
MrjdmZombie Garcia it's a SC I think
GSHeverything _27 The SC goes on top of all the pulleys or shares the belt with the water, crank ect. These aren’t the traditional blowers where they eliminate the IM and sit on top. Buuut, perhaps the larger IM and TB did the trick. 🤔
Aside from the intake manifold and throttle body, this car has a bigger blower than the standard kraftwerks kit.
Are you from the UK? The accent you have sounds like you're an ex-pat thats lived in states a long time but still has some lilt to your accent.
Yes, I was born in the UK and left in 1993.
LHTPerformance nice, what part? I'm from West Mids, now live in Oxford.
Yorkshire
Interested in buying a LHT Custom intake manifold
Where in Florida are you located ?
White chocolate is my favorite star bucks to!
why do you guys only make cars around the 400whp mark, ive seen stock s2k motors push 700 ez no issues with internals or anything
I LIKE THIS CHANNEL
Thanks buddy. That's what it's all about .:)
I find that if my power inverter for my laptop is plugged into the same circuit as the dyno or dyno equipment it can cause a hard crash. I have no idea why that's the case but it seems to happen every now and then. I bring an extension cord and run power from another plug further away in the shop or even the office.
We do have it on a completely separate charger. It happened twice that night too.
Strange, I've had good luck with Flash-Pro and KPro being mostly stable.....We've come a long way from Crome and Free-Log!
do grind the steering rack to fit the wider crank pulley? I'm installing this kit on my car very soon but my kit have the wider pulleys
As long as you keep the stock feed line gas hose going to the fuel rail,there is no benefit going with a return system flow wise.
The max volume allowed by the section of stock hose will be the same.
The only limiting factor will be the pump until the stock feed line become too restrictive.
cooler fuel and less evaporation knowing gas spend less time in the rail,than on a naturally aspirated set up ?
michaelovitch You are incorrect. I’m not getting into an ‘ internet debate ‘ . My data is hands on many many builds and tunes. But thanks for you comment 😐
There is no debate.
A feed hose section have flow limits.
Saying it can bring more fuel because you have a return downstream is incorrect.
You have more fuel because you changed the pump,and didn't reach the feed line flow limit,not because you have a return line.
i agree on fuel temps ,but not on flow.
Stock internals can handle around 700-800hp so why do I never see a large HP build by you guys? It's always a conservative 300-400hp. If I brought my S2K in could you do 600+ hp build?
I think 400HP is very well balance for the S2000. You can drive it everyday and is very predictable and well balanced.
400 whp quick in a 2800 pound car plus its reliable 🤷🏾♂️
Nice
Are the internals on an S2000 strong enough for that to be reliable?
Yep, We don't touch the bottom ends until 500+
Hi guys! What coloring technology does the cylinder head cover paint?
23:00 from the Land of the Rising Sun to the Sunshine State.
Hi anyway. Good work!
@lhtperformance was this car on 93oct or e85??
Sent an email regarding the intake manifold!
Huge fan guys. How long does a project like this take?
Charlie Kim We allow 10 days, but typically takes 6-7. We like to have extra time to we don’t need to rush.
@@LHTPerformance awesome. Look forward to future business. Can you guys also source a car for a complete build? For example, eg6 or ek9?
Unfortunately that isn’t a car I could provide you with. I could help locate an S2000 if needed.
Great work! Love the intake. Anybody know what lip is on that car? is that downforce USA?
M Sabbagh oem AP2 lip with splitter
Yes. Specifically what splitter is my question.
JRSC INTEGRA GSR?
Hey John would I have to take out a 2nd mortgage on my house to have LHT do the super charger work on my AP1?
We have heard from our customers that our prices are some of the lowest for what we do.
LHTPerformance do I have to call to get a quote?
