To me a clutch going out at 17k is pretty bad
I agree but what would say about my 01 S2000's clutch needing replacement before I was even out of break in and hadn

[QUOTE=oshp515,May 4 2006, 07:59 AM] Let me ask you, what suspension set up is the best to put on the STI.

i have an sti. its a nice car. not quite as fun as the s2k. reason i chose the sti over the evo, was frankly because it was rated higher as a consumer buy and more reliable. its a great daily driver, lots of torque for fast freeways runs to work.

hitting 18 psi in 6th while cruising on the freeway really gets a little addicting Not having to downshift to pass.. and only downshift to 5th to race. (this is with EM, of course)

I just trade my EV0 8 for may new 06s2k.I have the EVO for 3 years no problem with her. It was a very nice ride and very fast, now I have a 06 s2000 and now that I completed the brake inn period I am having fun with my car. I see a lot of potential with the S 2K . I wished i can have both but to many cars in the family....

If you can afford it, then great. I prefer a good DD and a cheap to maintain track slut. Spend your money on something other than two high performance daily drivers.

i have owned all 3, s2000 was the most fun to drive, i would pick the evo over the sti, too many reasons. i preferred the handling on the evo better than the sti. mod friendly, proven and reliable motor.
