Not-Quite Perfectly Modified S2000 AP1 | Too Much of a Good Thing

This is a 2001 Honda S2000 AP1, which almost modded to perfection. You can check out the full mod list below. If you're familiar with this channel, you know I love the Honda S2000 as a blank canvas and because of the transmission, check out my other videos linked below. This one in particular is up there for me, but let me know what you think of this version of the S2000 in the comments below!
Big thanks to ‪@Zygrene‬ making this review possible and Erik ( s2kerik?hl=en) for generously letting me test drive his car. If you'd like me to review your car, please reach out to me at: www.jubbalandcars.com/

Glad you liked it. So the diff is set up for time attack (super aggressive) as it was in a competitive car before mine. I came across this diff when my stock one grenaded and jumped on it cause for $1000 I got the Kaaz 1.5, pumpkin and 4.4 gears. Was just too good to pass up. At some point I'll retune it or put an OS giken or Cusco to tame it down a bit for more civilized canyon and street manners. It makes that low speed modulation difficult and clunks like crazy at parking lot speed turns but on track the confidence it gives is incredible.
