I will never forget my first ride in my mate's 8 MR FQ-400 back in 2005. That was the beginning for me, that's what got me on to Japanese cars and I haven't looked back.

I figure I've got three options.

1) get an Evo IX
2) charge the S2000
3) sell my Accord as I'm doing next to no miles now and buy an Evo V to replace it

I miss my evo as well, albeit mine was a 4, it was immaculate.

For an a to b car you just can't fault them when they are at around 400bhp. I haven't driven anything that was more capable on B roads.

However, I got rid as it was costing a fortune to run on track, it was a little too easy at times and it spat a rod through the block The s2000 keeps you on your toes more, and hasn't blown up yet! I would supercharge my s2000 before going back to an Evo.

What puts me off is the cost to supercharge it, I'm looking at well over £5000 once I've considered fitting, clutch, mapping etc.
