Have you noticed any differences?

Mine goes in for her first service Friday and I'm having all fluids changed.

Honda MTF in the box and Silkolene 90 in the diff.

I didn't think the shifting could be improved but it certainly has - especially when the car is cold. The diff works better too I think. When I used to push the car into corners, I would get a slight slide and then I'd feel the wheels lock up and the car would tighten the turn. Now with the new oil, I don't get the initial slide but a solid lock up from the rear wheels instead - I love it this way.

S2000silveVTEC - I would have a read ogf Xvipers thread on Redline shockproof oil - some very interesting findings.

Here you go! You need one of these

Got mine in France while on SM5 - having just changed the diff oil.

See how important good spanner management is?

Xby - you should have brought back a load of them!

Thanks for all yoru help and advice

Prior to owning an S2000 I had zero tools, so far I've bought:

1 x 10mm spanner - Snapon
1 x 1/2 inch wratchet - Snapon
1 x 12mm socket - Snapon
1 x allan key socket - Snapon
1 x rubber mallet -

I got a torque wrench from Helfords, seems to be good quality, 40-200nm I think. Comes in a pastic case that fits nicely into those 2 straps in the boot just under the latch and above the tool tray.

Anyone know what those are for?

Amuse Boy

The straps are for holding a flat tyre - if you remove the tool tray, you can fit a tyre standing up and the straps are there to secure it.

Course - you have to leave the tool tray and any other stuff that was in the boot - or your passenger - behind.
