I can't believe you're giving up on your 8 after putting so much effort into it.

Wow, seriously
Me and Jay have already told you, you have better things to worry about at the moment.

But only seats two and has a small trunk, more noisy, less comfortable ride, and has a convertible top that can get slashed... hehe.

i would suggest holding onto the rx8 until the conversion rate comes back up and then go looking in the states. S2KI is a cross boarder club forum, right? start there.

S2000 needs:
1. Better diff
2. Turbo or SC
3. better clutch
4. Stronger diff
5. Stronger half shafts
6. Better stereo
My favorite memories of my S2000 were driving home from Calgary, on a hot summer day, the Engine turning a nice 5000 rpms with crazy power on tap from the SC, burning at 180 kph on the Coqahalla with the tunes cranked... damn good times.
