I realize that I never made a proper post here. So let's talk about my girls.
'92 Track Tool
I bought the car in 2005. It only had 19'000 km (12 kmiles). Now it has 50 kmiles. Drove it 4 years on the street and a bit on the track till I decided to make it my track tool. I decided not to go too hard on the motor modification and enter an endless search of horses at the cost of reliability. I can not remember all the mods. Here is a not exhaustive list :
Motor & transmission :
- DC Sport Headers (old version)
- Straight pipes
- GT-One N1 Exhaust
- Downforce intake scoop
- Foam filter
- SoS IAB delete kit
- OS Giken LSD with 4.4 final
Suspension, brakes & body :
- KW Clubsport coilovers
- Full metallic / spherical bushings front & rear
- Dali front and rear race sway bars
- Type R front reinforcement bars
- Non compliance pivot clamps
- Stoptech ST40 big brake kit
- Enkei Kojin wheels (8x17 ET40 / 9.5x18 ET30)
- a bit of weight saving
- front home made undertray
- rear Difflow diffuser
- Wing West rear spats
- APR GTC-500 wing
- polycarbonate windows, divider and hatch
To come :
- Type R style carbon hood
All in all, I have fun with this car. Fore sure 200 hp more would be nice but I am more concentrating on the reliability and an affordable cost to run it. I am just a bit struggling with the rear ball joints. Already replaced the lower ones but it seems the upper will also need to be replaced.

'91 Street Tool
In 2014, seeing the prices rising and wishing to drive again on the streets with an NSX, I could not pass by a great opportunity. So I bought my second NSX. It only had 35'000 km (22 kmiles). Now it has 60 kmiles. I will keep it just slightly modified.
Motor & transmission :
- DC Sport Headers (old version)
- Pride Lightweight exhaust
- Downforce intake scoop
- K&N filter
Suspension, brakes & body :
- Bilstein / Tanabe springs
- Hawk HP pads
- Type R front / Type S rear sway bars
- Type R style rear wing
- Rear spats
- '94 wheels with 15 / 30 mm spacers
- '91 wheels with 20 / 38 mm spacers
Interior :
- Double DIN audio, amps, subwoofer box
- EK9 Civic Type R shift knob
To come :
- SoS IAB delete kit
- JDM short gears (will do this when my clutch will die)
All in all, I had no big problems but only : climate control unit, fuel pump resistor, shaft boots here and there, wheel bearing. AC works great (just needed to replace a valve) and windows are not too slow after greasing.
