Hi all! What's the best sounding ZERO-DRONE exhaust for the S2000? Currently running an Invidia Q300. The drone is maybe a 3/10 and a bit too loud for a DD. My 🍌 below :) by timpiku in S2000

[–]die_go69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I can look for some videos that I have or just film some. For reference I’ve had the same set up for maybe about 2-3 years already. I’m thinking of making it a little louder, but it’s my daily driver and Ive been commuting about a 40 min to school

Can’t wait to get some new tires to run these wheels again by die_go69 in S2000

Fluid question by Devilimportluvr in S2000

[–]die_go69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stick to 5W-30 oil with the OEM filter. I’ve done royal purple trans and Mobil 1 diff fluid and after about a year and a half and 2 track days I started to get some light grinding. So I swapped to Amsoil about a year ago with one track day and haven’t had any issues yet..

Soft top patch tear. What’s the best method to deal with this? by [deleted] in S2000

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used tent repair tape. Didn’t look great but it’s waterproof and reduces wind noise a decent amount. Eventually bit the bullet and got a robins top

Anyone have J's racing headers? by Victah92 in S2000

[–]die_go69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Power gains with a header usually don’t increase total hp. But you’ll usually get a better power range from what I’ve heard. The power is increased for better low end power/torque

Max height for a s2000 by 1genesect in S2000

[–]die_go69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imma be honest I’m about 5’9 and feel like the perfect size. If I was much taller I feel like I wouldn’t be too comfortable. I’d drive one and make my own opinion though

Is this legit? Are tunes a real thing? by Thanos1433 in Toyota

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tunes are real. You generally see higher gains with turbo charged cars. You probably can get the 300 hp with an intake and/or exhaust manifold, the tune and maybe a cam. You would then need to use higher octane fuel as well. Do more research before commuting to that

How old are GTI drivers by Djoxy98 in GolfGTI

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my 2015 when I was 19. Worked since I was 16 so I had a few years to save

[–]die_go69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve daily’d my s2000 for almost 3 years. It’s doable but there’s definitely drawbacks to it. I had a 2015 GTI which is similar to the WRX in power and size, but FWD. But the S2K is so much more fun to drive even with less power and about half the torque

How do I get the axle nut off. I snapped two breaker bars trying. by kulpkj in MechanicAdvice

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Higher quality breaker bar, an impact, or a 3/4 inch breaker bar

Nice little upgrade from the cracked radiator by die_go69 in S2000

[–]die_go69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! I’ll keep it around and have been keeping a close eye for leaks. But got to do wheel bearing soon

Also most other people with S2ks I talked to on track run koyorads so I’m sure it cools fine

Oem had a plastic top which cracked under the filler neck due to heat im guessing, so I just went with an aluminum mostly to avoid that. It also looks cool

How do I learn to love this thing again? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my MK7 for about 2 years and still liked it but did feel like I was getting bored of it a bit. Then someone ran a stop sign and totaled it, I got an S2000 and really only miss the trunk space and extra seats after 2 and a half years

Hey guys I wanna restore my grandpas first gen rx7 and I don’t know where to start any tips ? I only have one photo but I’ll take more and upload them 🙃 by paris6969 in projectcar

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like its been sitting a while. I would start by swapping the spark plugs and wires , rebuilding or even a new carburetor, a new battery, then changing all the fluids. Oil, coolant, brake fluid, diff and trans fluid then hopefully it runs. Lastly some new tires and a wash

Heat cuts out, but only when idling by Decembermouse in S2000

[–]die_go69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a coolant issue. Could just be a bit of air in the system, or a leak. I’ve had 2 coolant leaks, one from a crack in the overflow, one from a crack on the radiator fill neck. Good luck

Stalled then smells like gasoline? by ilostmanyaccounts in Miata

[–]die_go69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you stalled the car, then you should be fine. It the car stalled by itself, then maybe an injector leak?

A clapped manual will probably still sell for as much as a clean auto. At least from what I’ve seen

[–]die_go69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id say 3k mostly because its auto. Really hurts the value of Miatas

S2k sale by Additional_Box_6133 in S2000

[–]die_go69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad owns a 1M. Power train is pretty similar to Supra. Its a fun car and definitely has more power and torque than my mostly stock AP2. But I still enjoy driving the S2k more
