A coolant change is an opportunity to plan more than fresh fluid. Using our demonstrator S2000, we explore six areas of preventative maintenance and tuning—from ageing hoses and a hard-to-reach knock sensor to coolant and intake temperature control.

Before chasing alignment numbers on an S2000, make sure the suspension can still be adjusted. We review the factory settings, explain toe, camber and caster, and show what happens when the adjusting bolts seize inside the bushes.

Wider wheels within standard S2000 wings—but not by wheel size alone. We explain our demonstrator’s 17×9.5J +63 square setup, the supporting suspension parts and the compromises involved.

Stock-style, spring-platform-adjustable or damper-length-adjustable? We compare their structures, adjustment methods and costs to help you choose the right suspension for your Honda S2000.

Why did our S2000 feel calmer after fitting stiffer springs? We compare the original Eibach springs with Suspension Plus UC-01—and explore why spring rate tells only part of the story.

What does “replacing the clutch” on a Honda S2000 actually include? We follow the complete operating system from the pedal to the flywheel, explain common symptoms and show how thoughtful parts selection can make better use of the labour involved.
