I drove the car around the block on pump gas and the only thing I noticed was that I had to rev it to around 12-1400 instead of 800rpm to smoothly take off. Other than that, it felt exactly the same as my bone-stock Trans Am if I didn't get on it (of course the power delivery and handling were different, I just mean as far as livability/clutch feel, etc.). The clutch felt stock to me, or at least the same as the one in my stock WS6 felt regarding effort and how it grabbed.

I am unaware of what the car currently has done. It is no-longer a DD and is a dedicated strip car.

We have a lot of nicely modified Honda's in my area. S2Kfrom hell (don't know the current status of that car, it is one car that WAS puking driveline parts all the time, even on pump-gas, but the owner DROVE it.), etc. Kinda odd for a little southern town until you consider we have one of the largest military bases in the US.

So in that case, you've got to worry about the trans going at any time.

Do you know who owns the s2k, or details on it?
