"He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost their lives."

If that was the truth, then shame is him being in a car where someone is wanting to show off their fNf car pushing the limits and him not wanting to be a pussy and saying" hey slow the fuck down".

Because in the end that fuck head couldn't handle his car and Paul didn't speak up soon enough to let him know that the situation was out of control.

We weren't in the car so you cant say what was/wasn't said before the accident.

I've owned two these and also live in Atlanta.  Like Charlie offered, I'll be more than happy to take a look at it for you.

You have to dig for the tech info on that forum since it's been a few years.

I was going to mention the DSS axles but most people don't want to spend that kind of money on them. Flipping the cups will buy you time until you decide to buy them.

I've owned two S2K's (both AP2s though) and loved them both.  The only maintenance I had to handle that was outside of the regular service was replacing the timing chain tensioners.  These are rather common to fail and cost ~$120 at the dealer and take all of 5-10 mins to replace.  I sold my second one with ~127k miles, IIRC, for $13k a couple years ago.  The soft top started to wear on the driver side right behind the head.  Honda issued a TSB for certain year models so they were replaced under warranty.

If you don't already know, the 7" diff (same size as the Miatas) are known to break even at stock power level.  This boils down to how the car is driven.  I never had an issue with mine.  Honda added a clutch delay valve in the slave cylinder in the AP2 to help prevent damage to the diff.  If you lower the car significantly, you'll start to feel a vibration under hard acceleration.  This goes back to the CV axles as they will pit the cups.  Most owners will simply flip the cups from left to right and will remove the vibration but now you'll feel the vibration under hard decel.

The 2nd gear syncro in the AP1 transmission is known to wear out so you'll start to feel it grind.  The AP2 transmission is strong but the gear ratios are slightly different being they increased the displacement from 2.0 to 2.2L.

Thank you for the kind words Michael! I'm glad you're happy and welcome to her site. It's filled with a bunch of great people willing to share their knowledge. Continue to touch base with me If you have any questions.

Beautiful dogs!

I'll vouch for this car considering we (Topspeed) build the motor.  The Dom 1.5 turbo is a great turbo. 

You're so close to having it completed.  You might as well finish the project and enjoy it for a little bit.  If you're still craving a new Cayman then that's when I'd sell the FD.
