Great info. You're absolutely right about being trusted with other people's property, it breaks my heart every time a new scratch on my S2000 appears after being in the care of a dealer/garage. Even Honda dealers now have a crew of low-paid car-washers who don't seem to give a damn.
Really appreciate these videos and your way of doing business. All the tips and tricks are a real treat to us viewers. I plan on making the great S2K pilgrimage one day too
This dude is pretty awesome! Reminds me go an old mechanic friend of mine. Dude was the nicest and kindest guy ever. Really enjoyed working on and fixing peoples cars. I was broke when he first worked on my 88 corolla and as I progressed in my career brought him many more cars for much bigger jobs. Dude retired and had like 3 houses, big $ and a comfy retirement. Son later took over the shop, but he was not a people person. The son was always on his phone when I walked in, whereas the father greeted his customers with enthusiasm and knew them by name. The shop closed 6 months after the soon took over :-(
John, Thank you for giving a damn and for taking the extra time to show us little things like the filter wrench (ordering one asap). Watching these videos motivates me to get in the garage and do some TLC maintanence to our Hondas (Civic and CR'V). You all rock!!
Hi and Greetings from Ireland !!! Great Videos guys and gal !.Have just purchased a S2000 2009 standard car . will pick up in Scotland on wednesday. My Brother in Law and brother are in in Treasure Island for a months holidays. I have told them about your shop .They may call round if thats ok with you . He is a car man thru and thru and used to restore classics etc . Antway keepup te good work and videos.
Muchas gracias señor! The videos are very informative and helpful. I just bought a Honda S2000 3 weeks ago and watching your video helped me with some issue I was having with the clutch slave cylinder. Keep up the good work 👍🏼 will be finding a way to make it down to your shop from NC, for sure!
I daily my s2000 for work and home life but with all that driving and Florida sun it really hard to keep it pretty, between rocks flying miles away on the highway to etc.
Hi guys! California viewer here hello! Im dreaming of the time (in 4-5 months) when i call you guys up and work out a dream build ive been trying to do. Long story short that reality is near. As soon as the funds clear you will be hearing from myself. Its a Subaru Sti build includes aero kits with a big ass frame mounted wing and wide body set up. I dont know if you guys do that. I will reach out hopefully sooner than later. Cheers!
Hey LHT have you tried “liking” the comments you like to hear in your feed? What this does in youtube sharing algorithms is identify the phrase that you associate with then youtube ai would recommend your channel to similar phrases found in videos similar to this one. It means a wider audience can reach your channel which can only mean better bottom line numbers. I know you guys are about the bottom line. I hope you guys the best. Cheers!
I'm planning getting an s2k with a high mileage but I had no idea about an s2k. Please share with a simple maintenance list what I need to do once I get it. The car has 137k miles on it. I so wanna bring the car to your shop one day. From Houston gonna be worth of 14 hrs drive. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thank you
@@BodiaGuy The # of owners doesn't matter much. The mechanical condition of the vehicle is what is important. With 100,000+ miles on a car, no one cares how many owners it has had. Why should you care ? Have a pre-purchase inspection done by a shop that has a technician who is FAMILIAR with the S2000. You'll probably need to do a basic tune-up, oil, engine oil filter, engine air filter, cabin air filter, a.c. evacuation, and re-charged, maybe the spark plugs will need to be replaced. NGK Laser Iridium spark plugs are recommended for Acura/Honda vehicles. It may need cylinder head cover gaskets. Buy a Honda kit. He shows the gasket kit @ 6:14 in the video. And You'll likely need to replace some suspension rubber bushings & engine/transmission mounts. Wheel hub bearings & the brake pads or brake rotors and brake fluid may also need to be replaced. Also the clutch, and bearing may need to be replaced. I wouldn't buy an S2000 that needs a clutch and throw-out bearing replaced unless the price is cheap. At approximately 137k miles on it, cheap would be less than $8,000 2002 - 2003 are the best model years to buy. 2004 - 2005 are decent.
@@williamlevy1981 😮😮😮😮 thank you William yes the car is 2002 he asking for 8k.. me and my friend gonna go take a look tomorrow and we both had no clue about the s2k 😂😂😂.. but we hope there no knocking sound on the engine or I just pass it. Looking some else where. Thank again for your advice 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@BodiaGuy I'm in Houston with a red 2000 ap1 with only 91k miles. Looking to get 10k. Should look at mine if you haven't bought the other one yet. No mods. Bone stock. Clean carfax and title in hand. PM me
John ... Really would be nice if you opened a another facility here in California. No one and I mean NO ONE within 200 miles of us knows or provides the hi quality service LHT does for S2000's
Ive tried to tell people the OEM Honda oil filter P/N PLM-A01 and PLM-A02 is not the best filter for hi rpm applications. I use Wix filters that have the same dimensions as the PCX.
John, at 9:35 the to do list showing a "stalling issue" was that resolved also curious of the how to do the serpentine belt. Last thing was curious if the owner ever got ceramic coating or paint correction the color looks great in that last shot you got...
That oil filter tool seems pretty useless since you can't use it to tighten the filter. And yes! you need to use a tool to tighten the S2000 filter to factory specs. Get the Lisle 61550 end cap wrench instead.
Not the filter man but the drain plug absolutely. Wasn't it like 33ft/lb. I've put just about 100,000 miles on mine. the red paint on the valve cover is pealing off. The gold i don't remember where all it's peeling but it's pretty much gone where the dip stick is inserted. For the love of god DO NOT let your break fluid reservoir get low you will not be able to shift worth $#@# and you will be lucky if you can put it in reverse. My back left strut went out after about 36,000 miles on the odometer. OMG have you ever tried to get that puppy moving in 1/2 inch of snow lol it's a B$#@. Ladders are bad (personal road experience) the big-rig riding my but with a full load of timber and the slim gap accelerated to get through was was made it memorable. Don't let your back tires get balled bc hydroplaning is a particular skill that it possesses. The car has no dents other than the one on my hardtop. I'm not sure how that happend. If someone hit it with their fist or the flex of the frame mad it cave. Also, why in the world didn't they install a button so you could easily unlock the passenger door?
On this video I see 5W-30 there I believe this 15W-30, can I ask why other than the obvious 15W is thicker than 5W, luv the videos and buying my first one in a month or so.
Hello, I am watching you from Turkey, you are doing very successful work by following me, I am doing a long application on my own s2000, thank you my friend.
Hi there another nice video for us the s2k lovers .I have the black wrikled spark plug cover and i cant clean it u tried washing it but its really disrty almost grey , any help how i can clean this thing please ; ) or its better to resprey it with black paint and if yes i should use matt black paint , am i right?
I have a question.I have a 2002 S-2000 and just had a timing chain done .1500 miles later..... the timing chain is now resting in the oil pan.Yup,thatz right....wtf. Now besides wanting to beat the snot out of the idiot that put the chain on...I NEED,to get my S back on the road.The question is.... does one rebuild 'this motor' or does one find a low mile used motor and just be done with it I love my S.Looking forward to the day i can hand it down to my son. Any ideas... ?
Hey LHT love ya videos I recently purchased a 2000 s2000 that has about 70,000 miles however the thing is that it was sitting for SIX years before the purchase due to lack of paperwork to drive it. I have done the following work since owning it: Oil/Trans/Diff/Clutch/Brake/Head Cover Gasket set/serpentine belt/Valve adjustment and lowered on bilstein pss9 My question to you is what other maintenance should I do next to make the car last as long as possible and I would like to hear if you had an recommendation on an optimal wheel setup (Offset/diameter/ Staggered or square/Brand etc) Thank you!
Don't use vinegar to get rid of the mold growing on the doors and the seats. that beautiful smell goes away forever and you're car will smell like vinegar for what seemed like a year. DO NOT!!! put your knee on the drivers seat so you can reach over to unlock the passenger door because it will eventually rip and seats are NOT cheap. Those brads in jeans will eventually rip through that leather on the left side of your seat. Don't use the cigarette lighter/charger because that center console slamming down on the cord you had plugged in will eventually make that thing pop right out. DO NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO CARRY LUGGAGE IN THE CAB. Rocks are unavoidable. Oh and keep your break reservoir filled bc it isn't just for your breaks. That is all the advice I have for you. I haven't had a pair of tires I was ever comfortable with. That a$$ end is the first thing to break loose. Keep the VSA on. I don't know if they have that on the ap1 though.
Hey john hope you see this. About the light weight flywheel ive been considering doing one when i do my clutch but ive been told to shy away since my car is a daily that it will make it not be as daily friendly in city/town driving. My oem flywheel is 16 pounds and im looking to go with an 11 pound will it still be daily friendly? The ap2 and the clutch masters is a 10-11 pound difference but if you say that will still be daily driveable then just shedding 5 pounds should be fine too for me?
Leonard Hatzell Ideally, the stock AP1 is my # choice followed by the Clutchmasters billet flywheel that’s only 2lbs lighter. I wouldn’t go any lighter than that as it does cause drivability issues. It’s more apparent under light to medium driving. Full throttle s a light weight flywheel is terrific. Keep in mind, you spend 95% driving easy back and forth.
Don King I would change it every 15k miles. Typically the S2000 is a fun / weekend car that will take longer to rack up miles. For spirited driving I would do it more frequently
Your videos are dope. It's time we say it, invest in a better camera cuz I wanna know what you're focusing on, like your most important thing is to connect with people, yet we're squinting.
I use S2000 oil filters on my Element and 8th gen Si. Buy the factory Honda filter wrench for it and you can even attach a torque wrench and torque to factory spec, if so desired. Also makes it easier to remove. They should fit on any K series motor.
Price. The only difference in ap1 and ap2 is redline minor rear suspension work, fule return line, analog throttle control vs digital (04-05 is considered the best generations for the hardcore drivers) but you can totally make a ap1 just as good as ap2. Disclaimer may have missed a few other differences. See savagegoose(?) in depth s2000 review.
Great video Any advice my car had clutch done before brought off shelf blueprint not OEM I have really noise throw out bearing quite when clutch pushed in do i spend the time to replace with OEM parts or just leave
@@LHTPerformance Thanks i will order one this week as noise at idle and even worst when driving Silly that people do not put the Nachi bearing and exdey Clutch kit as they cheaper than Blueprint parts
@@LHTPerformance Replaced with exedy clutch kit Nachi bearing at weekend Had aftermarket clutch and plate original Nachi bearing 20 years Old was the problem last garage to do clutch didnt clean and re-grease gearbox looked liked it was dry installed no grease just dirt
The Bird of Hermes DWB has added some many improvements. Better idle control, actual traction and stability control, more accurate cruise control, only one moving part with less chance of sticking, multiple driving / throttle options. 👍🏻

do i spend the time to replace with OEM parts or just leave
Frosty Flowers 420 Most clutch kits use an aftermarket bearing which always causes problems and usually fails.
I personally would replace it to an OEM Nachi bearing. We’ve seen the aftermarket bearing come apart and ruin a clutch.
