Honda S2000 Lubrication?

[wings&wheels]

The US manual allows 10w-30 or 5W-40, w/ the RoW manual, I believe, recommending 5W-40. I had a 2001 for five+ years and used Redline 5w-40.

Enjoy the car, I miss mine. Sold mine after I got the Lotus and after 9 years w/ the Elise, am still impressed by how good and durable a car the S2K is.

The S2000 seems to run well with regular maintenance, just change all fluids regularly the car is just start and run smoothly.

So far I have no problem with any mechanical component, only problem is rear tires wear out fast at less than 10-12k miles, and since I drive mostly in city so the front brake pads and rotors didn't lasted more than 30k miles.
