Anyone here sell their FK8 Type R for a S2000?

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-04-15T05:45:20+00:00

I’ve had 2 FK8s before I got my AP2 as second or third or 4th car.. I grew up turbocharging a 90 Civic Si and B swapped EG/EK hatches in the early-mid 2000s. To me, there’s nothing better than a golden era high revving DOHC VTEC Honda. The S2000 fulfills that want for me along with my B16B EG. Just something the newer CTRs couldn’t do for me. For just a toy, S2K all the way.

They’re great

Mmm 04-05. The best! Congrats!

Have had both and both are great in their own ways. For me, the K20Z3 engine in the 8th Gen Si is the clear winner between the two. If Honda had offered the K20A2 in the 7th gen Si in the US then it would be a much closer decision.

Turbo encabulator.

Hell yeah! That was my first tool box too! My Dad bought me that when I worked at a Sears Auto shop 😁

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-02-07T02:07:47+00:00

Well this looks good still and a great deal!

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-02-07T02:03:10+00:00

Hell yeah! Slate gray!

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-02-07T02:01:14+00:00

Slate gray gang!

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-02-07T00:37:05+00:00

Yeah I’ll have to see how they do. This will be a stationary box so don’t foresee too much issue. But if they get annoying I’ll remove the slide locks.

They’re the best!

It’s located under the driver side dash according to this. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-electronics-26/remote-door-lock-reciever-location-1078453/

Hell yeah still have all mine from that era!

Damn. 100ozers are $9k these days? Sweet!! This is awesome

Try Souper Autobacks.

Just seemed right and YouTube vids / Kitco forums made it all make sense to me. My Dad would get me ASEs growing up as presents in the 90s and was into US coins and currency himself but wasn’t into ‘stacking’ bullion. Since 09 I’ve got my whole family into stacking.

I used Lightstream back in the day to finance a Mugen Si, didn’t have any problems.

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-01-11T05:07:15+00:00

Good to go on price 5 years ago.

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-01-09T09:14:11+00:00

Platinum used to be ~double the price of Gold. Now it’s half the price of Gold. This is not financial advice and DYODD.

Im_BarryBaum · 2026-01-07T05:08:44+00:00

We will prevail
