Chances against an s2000

Featured Replies

You could get an engine conversion? Maybe?

Expensive but can be done for around the same price as a big turbo upgrade

Wot about a cossie...no ok ,wot about a scooby engine,with that sound..awesome!

It might be a bit extreme ,but what a car you'll have:D

neither would fit as they are longitudinal engines mate ;)

tell him to come along to trax and see how his s2000 does against some octavia's :)

hopefully mine will be there, a nice big slow estate car with a towbar :thumbup:

Im sure theres a company that could achieve the conversion

If they can fit cossies into 106's,saxos,even a toyota yaris im sure it can be done,iv seen a 106 once with an evo VI engine

Anyway im really happy with the performance of my vrs,wouldnt change it for an s2000 no way there hairdressers cars;)

well yes anythign can be done but why spend so much and completely rebuild a car for little gain?

I know its a lot of cash and hassle but i think its jabba or someone else who want nearly 5k for a stage 3 turbo conversion:eek:

An engine conversion is around 3-5k on a drive in drive out basis

Like you said tho why spend all that cash but if i had the money il get an engine conversion ,not that i will,i dont even know wot £200 looks like let alone 5k:eek:

Ithink a standard cossie (if you can find one) is around 220bhp,scooby around 270bhp before you start tinkering with it,the possibilities are endless

Right wheres that lotto ticket! :)

but they won't fit without a hell of a lot of work, and they won't be 3-5k drive in drive out, nothing like it!

you could get a gt28 on your car and working far cheaper than you think ;)

compairing a S2000 to a vrs is all wrong, 2 completly different cars.

the s2000 is a N/A engine the vrs is forced induction.

Both have good points and there bad points (not including the fact one is a 2 seater soft top).

I have been on a 350mile run with a Honda Club (girl has a ctr) but took my vrs. Friend owns an s2000, and with 230hp vrs i was just keeping up and mine had koni/whitline suspension his was std. If it wasn't for the fact the run organiser was setting a respectable pace the s2k would have trouced me, and iam not slow by any means biut , if you get in real tight twisties the s2k cant put the power down effectively to pull away but sweeping b roads it comes into its own, but its got to be Dry not wet.

Both cars are good but the s2k is just better. Even when you spend 5k on the vrs the s2k with 5k spent and a supercharger or throttlebodies if a purest would still be a force, plus the best 4cyl engine ever built sounds so much better when at 9000 rpm.

Iam a Honda fan and a skoda fan but out and out performance and engineering reliability from a std car has to go to Honda, you don't see many post on there forums with problems unlike Vag which has problems on every page. Honda wins this one

OMFG another one NO simply the VRS is a ok car not a ****ing rocket beat all comers motor jeez
