I found a very lightly used Fuji dual exhaust in Vancouver for sale...

I was all prepared to drive the CR-V up there to get it, called the border and asked what forms I needed, bought a iMoney Order, filled up the tank to make the drive... and found out that the guy didn't have either of the gaskets for it.

There is a ring type metal gasket that goes between the C pipe and the fiber type that goes between the cat and the B pipe. These are close to impossible to source from Fujitsubo.

I've also been leaning towards the Fujitsoba exhaust. But now that my wife is driving the S on weedays, I'm not so sure she'd be to excited about a bit more exhaust noise. Maybe I'll get it and put it on when I'm driving it (weekends) and put it back to stock on Sunday night. Now to get a lift for my garage, good thing I have a high ceiling.

As for service work on my S, I use Dick Hannah in Vancouver. They've been great at getting it taken care of and never given me the dreaded "We can't duplicate the problem" answer. Parts folks are generally very friendly, although once I had to wait quite a long while for a set of wiper blades (but it was during their lunch break).

I did take it to Thomason Honda in Gladstone once. That will never happen again. It took them 3.5 hours to do an oil change and fix a rattle in my top (they didn't fix it though, it's in the passenger latch somewhere). And I specifically told them not to test drive the car, but NO, some kid took my car for a 30 minute test drive. Yeah, right. And when I got it back there was oil/grease on both doors, the shift knob and steering wheel. I was just pissed.

Anyone tried taking one to an Acura dealer?

I got a spugen dual exhaust on there now. Been looking on ebay and nothing. Who sells the fujiitsoba exhaust? Thomason is the closet dealer and the farthest on my list. I also had to wait about 3 hrs for an oil change there. Once I found out you didn't have to take it to the dealer, because of being under hondacare I change it at home with mobil 1. I do go to Thomason for my filter though. That's about an hour wait, JK.

You can get the Fujitsoba from s-gruppe, not sure how reliable a vendor they are but they do have that exhaust.

Most people have to special order it from Japan.. check th GB forum here and you can likely find an open thread or vendor.

Yeah, don't know anybody that stocks them. Just found out, Horsepower Freaks over by the airport can order them also.

This post caught my eye because I should finally be gettting my S2k this summer(leaving the VW scene), and I want to take it in somewhere for a pre-buy inspection(private party purchase). This "Andy" that you guys are speaking of, is he the same one that opened Dragtec? If it is, I have talked with him a few times, and he seemed real passionate and knowledgeable about his car. A few pics for remmeberance:

Ah, the infamous "other" turbo in the PacNW. I'd heard about it, but I've never seen it or seen pictures. Thanks for sharing. I suspect everything that's rubber in the engine bay will melt if the owner ever pushes the car into boost for more than a few seconds...

Very fast... but very unreliable! I remember this car show well- there were also 2 other DragTec S2000's there(both NA).

Thnaks for posting the pics, you took me back a few years!
