Honda S2000 (S2K)

I'm BACK with another hectic post. I forgot mentioned about this car when I posted the Supra last week.

In continuation, from the original film 2001 "The Fast & The Furious" with the focus this time on the custom black 2000 Honda S2000.




This roadster was made famous by the Vietnamese gangster named Johnny Tran in the race wars where he races against Jesse's (Dominic's friend and part of the crew) customed 1995 Volkswagen Jetta A3. Check out the video below. Enjoy!

VTEC just kicked in, yo!


TOO SOON JUNIOR!

This S2000 was the first generation of all Honda S2000s. Gen 1 was introduced in 1999 for the 2000 model year and was given the chassis designation of AP1. The car featured a front mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout with power being delivered by a 1,997 cc F20C inline 4-cylinder DOHC (Double Overhead Camshaft)-VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) engine producing from 240 hp (179 kW) to 250 PS (184 kW), of torque depending on the target market.

The engine has a six-speed manual transmission and Torsen (contraction of Torque-Sensing) limited slip differential. The S2000 achieved what Honda claimed as the "top level performance in the world" for a 2-liter naturally aspirated engine.
