Honda S2000 Parts

The Honda S2000, a two-door, two-seater sports car, was released by Honda Giken Industries in April 1999 to mark Honda's 50th anniversary and produced until June 2009. The S2000, inheriting the legacy of Honda's 1960s S500, S600, and S800 sports car series, was introduced in two versions, AP1 (1999-2003) and AP2 (2003-2009). The car evolved from Honda's SSM ("Sport Study Model") concept presented at the 1995 Tokyo Motor Show, which was a front mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive roadster equipped with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated inline five-cylinder engine and featured an X-bone frame for rigidity and safety, alongside a balanced 50:50 front-to-rear weight ratio for superior handling. The first generation, the AP1, debuted in 2004, powered by a record-breaking 2.0-liter naturally aspirated inline four-cylinder engine (F20C) that produced 125 hp per liter, a record unmatched until the Ferrari 458 Italia in 2010. It underwent minor facelifts in 2001 and 2003, with updates to the radio, instrument panel, suspension, rear window, and engine control unit. The AP2, launched in 2004, saw several changes, including upgraded 17-inch wheels, new Bridgestone Potenza RE050 tires, and carbon fiber synchromesh gears in the gearbox. The exterior received adjustments with new LED taillights and oval exhaust tips. In 2007, a club Racer version was offered in North America, focusing on track performance, with weight reduction measures like an optional air conditioning and the omission of a spare tire.

Renowned for its sportiness, the Honda S2000 roadster can face issues that may hamper its performance and enjoyment. Engine performance degradation, often occurring around 100,000 miles, is one common issue characterized by loss of acceleration power, metallic sounds, poor fuel economy, a burning oil odor, low engine oil, misfires, and rough running. Some drivers also report trouble starting the vehicle, accompanied by grey oil smoke. An illuminated Check Engine Light necessitates immediate inspection of components like the oil filter, rod bearing, piston ring set, valve cover gasket, and ignition coil. Transmission and braking failures are other issues, common to many Honda models, manifesting as unusual noises when depressing the clutch, transmission slippage, low or dirty fluid, difficulty shifting gears, and unresponsive pedals. The potential culprits could be the release bearing, clutch disc, clutch slave cylinder, or clutch master cylinder, with brake pad set failures often affecting braking response. Despite the challenge of maintaining all parts due to their sheer number, regular maintenance of components like the emblem, headlight, cabin air filter, and wiper blade is essential, as they are exposed to harsh working conditions and frequent usage.
