Both cars are super clean, love the color of the TL

 

fuck...used an old ax handle under the tct and upper shock mount...was able to lift the engine up a solid 2 inches.

motor mount time...

I'm guessing you all do your transmission mounts while you're at it? I looked at mine this week and they "looked" okay, although I can't really put enough stress on them to tell if they're just pressed together but hiding cracks.

 

All the 3G and S2000 talk a few pages back had me feeling like sharing this pic from the weekend. Briefly together until the S goes under the knife again.

 

Moar pictures of the S2k!

 

Yup, sounds like you need motor mounts.

I didn't bother replacing mine because they weren't ripped or cracked from age, maybe just really broken in

 

I think I'm gonna do them all...
I don't want any extra vibration so getting aftermarket ones are not in the plans for me. Almost ordered from Rockauto then read a horrible review about DEA vs OEM mounts.

jtrix! We have the same taste in wheels! Same TL wheels and my dream wheels for the s2k!

 

Don't have many. I basically rebuilt the car over three days to attend Hondafest New England. Gotta go finish some things up. I hate rushing things...

 

I'd slap anyone of those girls if they laid a hand on my paint...

Begone, you vagrants!!!

 

Yeah most car photo shoots like that drive me nuts. I care more about the paint than anything else

 

Cleaned up the S quite a bit today, claybar / buffed exterior, detailed interior, and changed oil.

Per J's request, here are the LEDs. Nice and bright compared to the old OEM bulbs









Taped up:



Detailed the engine:





Done! Just waiting for that first bird shit

 

Looks awesome.

Want to come do mine?

 

Nice detail work Tyler!

 

Fantastic work!

 

Damn Tyler! You have the best garage!

And ...






placing an order for both oem mounts and transmission mounts, while I'm at it!

 

Looks great, Tyler! Love how bright those fuggin things are!
When I swapped back to my amber sides, I must have been drinking and I put my cr side and chrome bulb on the windshield cowl and forgot.

I don't wanna buy a whole new set and I don't wanna pay for shipping for just that so I'm getting one of those too...only $8!

 

Video is private?

And thanks! It's actually the garage at my parents place and I love working on my car there, tons of space and tools galore.

Thanks bud! LEDs ftw!

 

For some reason my new phone uploads and defaults to private.

 

That's a ripped motor mount if I ever saw one!

The difference is pretty profound after changing 2 x broken motor mounts, let me know how yours feels before & after

 

I sure will, man...

 

So this happened a week ago....


I guess I need to drive it more.

 

I have 4x more mileage than you do , expect many more trouble free miles!

Now, go out and drive it

 

I got a new co-driver:

 

Dave...you're hilarious.
Ken...

 

Skip to 3:30 if you aren't interested in my other track driving. But yeah, that shows you how NOT to drive your modified S2K. haha

He spun out right after he let me pass. Don't know what he did. I just saw him spinning and the bowl of dust.

 

Are there any rules for yielding? There were a few moments earlier in the clip that he should have let you pass.

 

Yeah, he should have let me pass much earlier. Felt like he just didn't want to.

The fact that he spun out right after letting me pass means that he's either a huge noob or wanted to chase me down. LOL

 

He maaaaaaad

 

Yeah, I think he was mad.

I saw him spinning out and I was like oh no, he's going to be pissed off.

 

You need a YOU MAD BRO troll face magnet or rear vinyl for track events...

 

I think it's something about Jin that makes S2000s spin out

 

he was probably chasing down your hunnid dolla deals! :toof:

 

jeeeez bob.. get a microfiber cloth or california duster on that thing.. it's filthy




fuck.. i should not be in this thread... it spells trouble for me..

 

^How do you think I feel?

 

x2 I was browsing CL last night and found quite a few AP1s that would be just a hair more $ than a S/C for the Charger.

 

Like a man with a boring corolla and no, ultra fun, convertible?

 

The problem with driving with the roof down... Everything gets dusty within 30minutes of driving. It's not Bob's fault!!!

 

I remember browsing through this thread before I bought my AP2... which lead me to check insurance rates versus my CLS-6 ... which lead me to AutoTrader ... which lead me to several test drives.

Here we are 18 months later

This thread was very influential for me, so viewer discretion advised.

 

Houston S2k takeover

 

Quoting myself here, posted 12/6 ...

Purchased 1/16

 

Truth.. Should be added as a subtitle :P "Warning, partaking in this thread will lead to an eventual purchase of an s2k"
