Skip I don't need it. I just put it in there because I prefer to get it done when done by someone who knows what they are doing to save hassle latter. I don't even need most of the fluids done. I'm just anal I guess. It was only 20k miles ago that you and Jeff did the diff fluid when I got the 4.77 gears. The car doesn't get driven much in terms of mileage.

 

Just let me know bud! I'm not far away and all of the above are easy peasy. If you're interested in learning at the same time, I don't mind you sticking around and seeing the process, just be ready for a solid 5-6 hour day.

What year is your car? You probably don't need a coolant change. However, if you just want to check it off the list, make sure its aluminum block safe. I like the Honda OEM stuff.

I agree with Skip, no reason to do your valves at 45K, even if you run the motor hard. If you want some piece of mind, we can check them but I can almost guarantee they'll all be within spec. I did mine at 65k, and only one valve was 0.001 out of spec. I adjusted the others to be identical to smooth the motor out a bit.

 

I have honda's OEM coolant
I'll skip the valve work.
What spark plugs should I buy?

I'm out of town this weekend and next weekend is christmas... i'll work around your schedules guys ... no hurry I guess

on cold days such as these i think skip's quantico bay is a nice to have. if i go that route maybe we can get 2-3 guys together to make it worth skips' time and rental?

 

For spark plugs, just stick with OEM.

 

Now that the weather is better I'm finally ready for the maintenance!

These are the things that I definitely need
-Trans fluid change
-Differential fluid change
-Clutch fluid change
-Swap Exhaust (from supersprint to hks)

Maybe's
-Brake pads?
-Valve check?

I'll be happy to pay for the work, please PM me with your rate. Also, any recommendation on where to buy the parts would help too! Thanks

Thanks, Pete.

 

Bumping an older thread. I'm in Nova, actually in Winchester and just picked up an s2000. I'd like the fluids changed out as well, car has 56k miles on it. Also I wanted to see if anyone could help me install a Harddog Rollbar? (At some point, don't have it yet) I'd of course pay you for your time, I'm just looking for someone that knows these cars and that I can trust. Oh the car also came with Eibach springs, not sure if I want to install them or not. I don't know much about car maintenance, I work on my bikes but this car thing is a whole new learning curve.

Let me know , thanks!
