S2000 Turbo J32 Build Thread On J32A.Com
 
I saw this guys build thread on j32a.com. I figured I would share it since it's interesting and unique.

Both the car and motor were bought just for this swap. My main thought behind the idea was to have a s2000 with some much needed torque. FYI, the idea was before the HFP j37 Blue CR(the released pic anyway)! I will try to keep the updates not too far apart, but I only work on the car about once a month.

Meanwhile, the reason my S2000 was so cheap was it was wrecked at one time. Most of the damage was cosmetic, but needed to be fixed.

Damn your right. My fault delete thread lol.

I had to make a spacer like this so I had clearance between my drive plate and my rear seal cover So it would sit right compared to the cls drive plate. If not the 3.7 crank will not work in a auto.
It's stepped the same way just much smaller.

So a light RWD roadster with our power and torque? Wow subscribed. Probably the most interesting J32 build I've seen to date.
