me vs. S2000

TatII · #1 07-09-2003, 12:35 AM

my friend just bought a new car today. its a used 2k2 S2000. the car has 8000 miles on it so there is no breaking in required. after we drove the car around for a good amount. we decided to go for it. there was 3 races. first race he bogged cause he only launched at 3.5K and wasn't aware of the torquelessness of the F20c. so i pulled hard on first and continued to pull. but by the end of the race i was only a car ahead? huh? anyways this time we decided to go from a roll. from a roll it was no contest. as soon as my turbo spooled up on first gear i was pulling on him thru every gear. ever gear i was pulling by atleast 1 car. so we pulled and i asked him what happend. he said that i had a head start. oh wellz i'll give him another run. the final race we it from a dig again. this time he launched at 5.5K he got a good launch and took me off the line by half a car. as soon as my turbo spooled up by the end of first gear, i pulled past him already. after that, we stayed even. however, on third gear he said that he was gaining on me, and that if we kept on goin he would beat me. well i need a new clutch then i'll race him again and this time i would make sure i beat him good.

how much psi were you running?

TatII · #3 07-09-2003, 01:11 AM

8-9psi. i was serious when i was racing this car. now if i had a clutch, i would pull even harder on every shift.

i've ran against s2ks, running about 12 psi, on stock turbo, errr...i mean, s2k is a beautiful car, dont get me wrong, but i did pull on him on the high end,,, i'm just wondering, if ur running a t04 turbo with supporting mods, shouldn't u be pulling on him by more than a couple car lengths? im just wondering, no offense intended

Get a lightweight flywheel while you're at it

kill 2 birds with one stone

It'll help the turbo spool up too

I am going to agree and say you really need to push for a new flywheel at the same time as the clutch...You would be kickin even more ass on lyour launches.

the fuel pump was kinda weird. when i removed the rear plate. the pump wasn't attached to it. i was like what da hell is this? then i checked on the alldata to see exactly where it was, and as it turns out, the fuel pump bracket is somewhere on the side of that big hole. its kinda hard to find, you have too really stick your hand in there to feel for it. other then that, it was pretty straight forward.
