Ballade Sports also offers one for F-series, and K-Miata offers one for ZF and Miata transmissions (hence the company’s name).Įach company above, minus 2NRS, offers a flywheel solution that is manufactured by Competition Clutch, Clutch Masters, or K Miata. 2NRS offers one for F-series and is the main one used by the community. Inline Pro offers options for ZF, CD009, and F20/22. Now you can choose what transmission you want to mate your K series to. There are a few companies that offer adapter plates. Innovative is the other company and they utilize some of the stock K series mounting locations, including the front mount location. There are two main options out there for mounts: Hasport is the one that I use, mainly because they mount to the sides of the K series and utilize the stock S2000 mount location. If you can swing it, I hear nothing but great things about the JDM K24A engines. Lesson learned! Start with the best donor engine you can afford. I also changed said head gasket and blew another one within three laps (user error that I’m too emotional to get into). Too bad it would start to not seal under boost. I leak-down tested and compression tested and it seemed fine. All year I chased a series of issues, but guess what they turned out to be? A blown head gasket from donor engine No.1. Good ole Sheri has a horizontally mounted radiator so that brings its own cooling issues. This is the most important thing I could tell you! Start with a healthy engine or you will be chasing problems. Start with the healthiest K24A2 engine you can afford. This list will be pretty specific to the K24/K20A2 engine so from here on out when I reference “K series” that’s the engine group I’m talking about. After a year or two campaigning mine, there are some things I missed or wish I would have known going in. Time to make an updated list of things you need to do to K swap your S2000. I looked over my previous K series article and it made me think that it was time. It’s cold and there isn’t much going on, well, except shovelling money into the S2000. It’s the off-season here in the midwest area of the United States.
