twisted Axle.



good side.


this is what is should be in side of the twisted boot.



cracked part.

I think exact same part were cracked last time because the sound and symtom is as exact as before. so my question is, do you know if honda has made effort to strengthen this part in later year?

eeeesh...that blows...
sorry man...
Are you thinking about aftermarket axles or a Z swap rear or just stock?

Johnny Sack

do AP2 axles fit in AP1's?

jbell

uh. Z swap rear?

I looked at other option that's just way too expensive for me. at least now. since I'm becoming more proficient at changing axle, I'll have spare axle.

what the *** are you doing to be able to break the axles...twice

Hard launches and drifting?

curiouz_G

hes boosted so maybe some hard launches/driving. i doubt anyone on this forum would make a drift s2000. what a waste of money, time, and a perfectly good roadster.

nibble

it's not hard launching nor drifting. I haven't done that since last axle.

one is I let some mechanics (oil change only) or distant friend drive and they tend to cunk out. i have racing clutch and that put a lot of strain to all of the drive train parts. I don't understand people who'd insisting on driving it after 1 or 2 cunks.

so, mr. "guest", don't talk about me because you don't know what i know. and I also believe that you are wasting time and money if you are not exploring potential of this great car.

Drifting wouldn't do that. Drifting's not that hard on the axles. That's all from launches. The S2000's a natural as a drift car.
