![]() ![]() More about the car, like previously stated it's a GPW with a clean title. I purchased it last year, 9/11 (second ap1) Bought it stock with the exception of the oem ht, te37 weels, and kwv2 coilovers. Unfortunately I never got to track this car, might be a good thing for the potential buyer. I've own my current ap1 for about 1 yr and done quite a bit of work to the car. You don’t really see this type or style of coverage on other sites because they just don’t have the type of accessibility I do thanks to Aaron from Spoon Sports USA… I like to cover Spoon Sports because they provide me with so much access to everything but I prefer to document it on video now so you guys get a more personal, inside-look at the inner workings of Spoon Sports. If you’re interested in Spoon Sports at all, you should watch it if you haven’t already. I covered most of it in the Vlog that I posted last week. We have been fortunate enough to run into him almost every visit there and this time, he even had some time to sign some stuff for my friends instead of taking us on his random errands and adventures like last year. People have meetings there and Spoon president Tatsuru Ichishima shows up every now and then to get some work done. That facility is separate from Type ONE and serves more as a shipping department and office. The price isn’t exactly cheap but if you love S2000s and plan to hold onto one for a long time, it seems like a pretty cool program to get into…Īs far as Spoon Sports and the office itself, nothing new ever really happens there. Think of it as sort of a “resto-mod” scenario. They do this thing where they restore an S2000 to nearly brand-new condition and also add a collection of Spoon Sports products to it. Other than those few cars, a completely bone-stock NA1 NSX was at Type ONE for service and an S2000 was being given the full Type ONE rebuild treatment. I think the S660 will be a pretty popular car over in Japan so a lot of tuning companies are working to add new products to their catalogs to accommodate the new Honda roadster. Spoon is currently working on creating some new products for the Honda S660 but even that is still in relatively early stages of development. The car just sort of sits there as a collector’s item now and doesn’t see a whole lot of track duty these days. It is basically just an old race car now that they keep in their collection so there is no intent to really modify it further. The Spoon Sports NSX-R had returned from a tenure in the U.S. In the past, we got to see the build-up of the Spoon EG6 along with a glimpse at the Spoon EK but this year, the spot looked relatively empty. ![]() There wasn’t anything particularly new or really interesting to capture being that they don’t have any big projects going on. I only gathered a small selection of photos from Type ONE and Spoon this year. ![]()
