EK24a2. Meh. Was fun, really fun. Now moving on. Waiting on a guy to purchase my shell after he does his taxes, and that should pay for most of the parts I need to get this done.

Here is the s2000 (2002)

Just got the carbon fiber roof. Need to take it back off and strip the soft top and frame and motors (90 pounds worth of shit I hear and the top weighs 26ish).

Found a Berks UHV Dual Exhaust. Should be here soon.

I won a set of brake rotors from www.r1concepts.com on Facebook on Friday...

this build took a huge turn after the purchase of a v160 supra transmission. had to learn how to build/design/machine an adapter plate to work with the k series engine.

keep in mind that the runout from engine to trans needs to be within .005 of an inch for the bearings' longevity.

Reserved too ?

The part out is going better than expected. My have to make a for sale thread for the stuff I can't sell on houston.

Also been kicking around the idea of a supercharger, but will need to mount it facing the opposite direction.

So maybe k24a2 supercharged ap1? This is dreamer stuff right now, but at least the kswap isn't.

going to order the clockwise baffle next week just for shits and giggles. i'm waiting for my friend to finish making payments on my ek shell before i order most of my kit parts ballade sports.

but seriously, i need to fab up a plate like this:

 

[Ben Howard]

Interesting for sure. Your build will be fun to watch.

 

[Mixwell]

Yea, my only enemy is time. Wish I had more money to put into the motor.

My exhaust came in, but haven't had time to put it on. (Bolts up into the factory location.). Need to finish putting my interior back together. Have new oem seats and just removed my soft top.

Here's a preview of the exhaust.

Berk's Dual UHV. I picked this because this is the only one I saw for the s2k that opened up after the collector. A single would have been better for performance, but doesn't look at good. This was my next option.

See the OP for pics of the rest of the exhaust.

 

[Mike97LS]

Looking forward to watching your swap happen

 

[Mixwell]

Thanks. Shouldn't be that much complicated than a kswap. Just some small wiring issues I see coming, that's it.

 

[Mixwell]

So I've named her Tamekia, Tia for short. Why? Well the meanest blackest thing I ever met was named Tamekia.

Forgot to mention that the s2k comes with EPS. So, I get to keep power steering...!

Anyways, I have more room in my garage now.

Next I'm taking the s2k to the dent doctor and will be getting the body to 100%. Looking for an ap2 rear bumper. To complement the rest of the ap2 rear end parts I have collected. Sheit, may pull the motor to have the bay painted too, but that depends on timing.

 

[Mixwell]

Cleaning my garage once I get back into town.

Still need to put on my coilovers, in addition to my exhaust.

Oil baffle came in today. Clockwise motion.

Ap2 tails

Ap2 spoiler

Anyone interested in this bys style spoiler?

i will be using parts from this kit: http://www.balladesports.com/products/hondas2000/s2000_engine/s2000-to-k2024-swap-kit

it's only a little bit harder than a kswap (i hope, lol).

 

[15000rpms]

so it seems like its bolt-on then.

I :lolface: when I read this the other day. She must have made quite the impression I take it....

Yes. There's a LS bolt on kit just to name another one too.

Over 20 years ago...LOL!

Parts are starting to come in.

S90 70mm B Series Style Throttle Body. K Series won't work (as well). Too flipping bad too because I have a spare RRC with 70mm Hybrid Racing Throttle body with a new K-Tuned TPS sensor on it. **shakes fist** at least I can use the RRC on my daily 8th gen civic Si...

I hope that this will bolt up like it would to a civic. Boosterless Wilwood Master Cylinder. In this pic, I'm looking at the remote ballast setup.

Dropped my exhaust the other night and installed the Berks. Won't have time to go to an exhaust shop to level out my mufflers until this weekend.
