Makes sense to go the Mazda route as cheaper than a bag of chips and lots of whizz for your wedge

Track flea = bec
Road = car engine.

Worth pointing out if flipping diff to re configure oil level to lube pinion as it will be running dry and vent if applicable.

Honda S2000 all the way, suits the roadster perfectly in my opinion, light, powerful, 6 gear box, lots of revs but not excessive torque low down. shame you may have to go aftermarket with the ecu but I think the DTA S60 ecu comes with a base map for the S2000 and supports all the engine sensors with no calibration. I'm having second thoughts about a turbo in a roadster too.

Gonna regret this
 
Firstly, excuse my ignorance :o

What car used the S200 engine ?

Kinda guessing it is fitted to a Honda but what model ?

I await the ribbing :D :D

The Honda S200 used well errrr the s200 engine:D It's one of those fancy vtec type devices made by the devil:D

Bonzo 23rd August 2011 07:09 PM

Told you I was going to regret it :o

I have only just been weaned off the Pinto & Austin A series engines don't yer know :D :D

All I hear at home is Scooby this, Evo that & the odd Skyline thrown in for luck :rolleyes:
