Honda Performance Parts...Why not???

[S2K Reborn]

Alright, im just wondering why honda doesn't make any kind of performance factory parts for the s2000. Nissan makes em for the 350Z. TRD makes em for the Scion. Mazda makes em for the RX8. So why caN'T Honda make anything performance wise for the s2000.

[hajohehe]

hmm too busy making new accords

[skatin_s2000]

i would just think cuz all these kids in there civics and mustangs keep street racing and killing ppl. i dont think honda wants to be known for racing oriented.. but i would love it if they did come out with factory performance parts

[Seattle2k]

Honda does make an exhaust and coilovers for the S. Check into Modulo. It's JDM only though. This is new for '08

[S2K Reborn]

yeah. like an exhaust, new gears, brakes, clutches, springs....somethin

[S2K Reborn]

so where would i find this "Modulo"

[s2k 4 me]

Honda already put their performance parts on this car.

[S2K Reborn]

if you say so

[RuffRyder]

nismo parts for nissans are under factory warranty

Alodda "performance" cars start life as diff'rent levels of transportation. Some're basic, no-frills, some're a little more endowed. The boost to "performance" car level for many'a these vehicles comes from Johnny Lightnin'/J.C.Whitney/add your favorite name here__________ "factory" added modifications that get the masses salivatin' all over their shirt fronts n' throwin' magazine article n' factory supplied performance figures at each other, whut-iffin' ta beat the band regardin' further "performance modifications" n' which'd be faster.
These rides, however good they finally become after all the add-ons, weren't initially designed that way.
Very few manufacturers have the 'nads to put it on the line n' design a performance car from soup-to-nuts. As I've said on many occasionz before: this Ford man'z learned alodda respect for Mother Honda from Stewie.
Oh, you can take n' replace perfectly good workin' stock pieces like any'a the other lesser designed rides, but, excludin' forced-induction, unwise changes will likely lessen the car'z stock abilities. At best "improvement" will likely match that whut could be had by the driver missin' a couple'a meals.
Honda played their hand, pudditt down on'a table, slid their chair back, put their feet up n' lit a stogie.
Leave yer toy'z behind fella'z, Mother saw fit to treat us to a driver'z car.

Mugen...all you need to know. Created for Honda, approved by Honda, covered by factory warranty (for some Hondas...see Mugen Civic). King Motorsports (www.kingmotorsports.com) has everything you need. Bring your checkbook.

I'll have to check up at the dealership and see. i did't mugen parts were covered under warrenty for all vehicles. i know they are on the civics. "God Damn Street Racers and their $34,000 Civics" ill post when i get an answer.

[rickjkerstetter]

yea, it would be cool for honda to adopt a formal "division" for their performance parts. Maybe they should partner up with Mugen and make it official.

[S2K Reborn]

I talked to the people at the Honda dealership today. the only mugen parts covered are the ones that come on the mugen si. any others don't They should at least cover em on the S2000. At least it's a car worth putting mugen parts into. Not a P.O.S civic >

[MarkZ28]

They wont make parts for such a limited number of cars, besides they dont need to when theres so much aftermarket support and Honda would charge double what you can get aftermarket allready for about the same quality.

[S2K Reborn]

But if they covered aftermarket parts, it would be like living in paradise
