Picked up this car over the weekend in PA, about 4 hours from Albany. Was a turbo car, owner blew the motor and pulled it. I picked it up with no motor. I have a spare F20c so i’m gonna drop that in this car, do new springs, retainers and keepers, change out the ECU to get the full 9k out of it and all the locks/ignition (bc the key is tied to the ECU) . Just gonna clean it up and make it a nice daily driver. Best setup possible for the S2000 is the F20c with AP2 trans and diff= higher redline with better gearing. I’ll update this first post with parts i need, if you see anything below you have for sale or anywhere online for a fair price please let me know. couple quick pics (Fenders covered in dust) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/281E1E94-6A63-4749-8524-D798116DDDA3-1481-000001DC35CD99C3_zps6ae5acfa.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/281E1E94-6A63-4749-8524-D798116DDDA3-1481-000001DC35CD99C3_zps6ae5acfa.jpg) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/13168B47-8B1F-4F46-8F5A-ED68DD35EBFC-2983-00000320BE1EA59A_zps6b16091e.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/13168B47-8B1F-4F46-8F5A-ED68DD35EBFC-2983-00000320BE1EA59A_zps6b16091e.jpg) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/7DAE9955-EF2A-4DCD-A52F-0A26A0A287CB-2983-00000320C3CF2B04_zps02f63ce0.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/7DAE9955-EF2A-4DCD-A52F-0A26A0A287CB-2983-00000320C3CF2B04_zps02f63ce0.jpg) ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/E40231F9-5C71-4D29-BD70-00790333409C-2983-00000320B870E847_zps23a76517.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/E40231F9-5C71-4D29-BD70-00790333409C-2983-00000320B870E847_zps23a76517.jpg) ---

Tonight startes the teardown/rebuilt. Gonna strip the interior and put a new top frame and motors in it. Also have to remove and replace the taillight harness since it’s clipped from an aftermarket fuel pump setup, luckily i have a spare sitting on my shelf. Also need the remove the pass side fender harness and i want to replace that with oem, which i’ll have to find used. Tonight is just trying to clean up the wiring and get that sorted, which shouldn’t be too bad, and putting a soft top frame on it. I ordered a new robbins soft top last night and will be putting that on the 23rd. ---

Pulled the radiator out last night and the engine wiring harness. I am going to pull and replace the passenger side harness as well, so i can easily put the battery back under the hood. Also gutted half the interior and pulled the interior/taillight wiring harness out, which i will be replacing (fuel pump wires cut, and charcoal canister evap plugs as well), i have a spare sitting around for this. useless pic of empty engine bay: ![http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/1B75A6D8-D670-4D37-B7FC-B75FA419CCAF-2469-0000021755F82A1B_zpsedc74e66.jpg](http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h135/jacobennis/1B75A6D8-D670-4D37-B7FC-B75FA419CCAF-2469-0000021755F82A1B_zpsedc74e66.jpg) ---
