S2000 Engine required

[tigertwo]

Well, my car is dead. Completely. Basically the engine is unrepairable - big ends, crank and rods all stuffed.

I am now on the hunt for a reasonably decent second hand S2000 engine if anyone has any suggestions.

That will clear me out for the year - so I'll be back out drinking in about 2011 when I can afford it again I think.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that Nancy.

Guess it is one of the hazards of owning a car. I was sort of expecting the news to be bad, but still doesn't make it any easier when it comes.

bugger, guess trying to find a written off low mileage car is maybe a good route and I imagine there are a fair few around after the winter. Good luck!

Ive checked ASM near me and they have no s2k's in have you tried the drift forums?


However they have this and that could be interesting... hmmmm

[johnvthe2nd]

that last link has got to be a bargain .. you'll never get it mended cheaper than that, will you?

[Exquisite]

accord 2.4 goes in the fd2 civic does it go in the s2k....upgrades hurt less than replacements

[shimmey69]

is the civic type r the same engine as the s2000 just with less power?? might be cheaper option???

[Motown Junk]

Nancy,

could always divert some of your Marathon sponsorship as 'expenses'

[Dave_ITR]

Speak to Tom at TGM, he had rear ended S2K in when I was last down there - 01252 811 972.

[Blues]

sorry to hear the bad news Nancy, fingers crossed for a cheap and easy fix

[Revs_Addiction]

TGM - end of story. They're only in fleet too.

Speak to Tom and say big Andy sent you.

[Revs_Addiction]

Ps - sorry to hear the news. -(

Do you know what caused it yet?

No, completely different engine from a different series. K20a in the Civic, not sure what is in the S2000 without googling but it's something different...

[VerySideways]

Cause would appear to be oil starvation from high G's at Millbrook skid pan

[Robatr0n]

Sorry to hear that Nancy. I hope you find a cheap and quick solution.

[Revs_Addiction]

Different engine jake, k20a/k20a2 that's in the teg/civic is transverse, the f20c in the s2k is longditudinal.

If you use TGM get him to baffle the sump he does it to all his race cars and is way cheaper than buying a branded one.

Good luck!
