We don't have wires.. we have coils. You don't need to replace them. Stick to OEM Honda oil filter.. end of the part # is PCX-004. No reason to get anything else. This filter was specifically designed just for the S2000. I believe Amsoil also makes a quality filter for our car, but it's probably more expensive. I wouldn't get anything else. Stick to OEM plugs.. no reason to get anything else either.. but you shouldn't need to replace them before 100k unless the gap is way off for some reason. Oil is up to you.. a lot of people here run Amsoil, Mobil1, Penzoil Platinum, etc.

stock honda filter or Napa gold filter
Pennzoil platinum 10w30
stock NGK plugs

so far, stock in trans and diff. Likely to change out in due time to some redline 75w90.

Stock brake fluid, soon to change out to Motul RBF600 with stainless lines.
