I'm starting to think going with 5spd short gears + R final drive is going to be one of those kinds of mods for me...
For sure the JDM gears and a Comptech 4.55 R&P -- best thing I ever did to the car (wish I had also done the "R" limited slip shims too). Next would be stiffer anti-roll bars.
I wish I had installed my DRLs sooner! They really update the front end :biggrin:

^^^you mean s4play lol?
Thanks! Still 50/50 on XPO but it looking a no.Powdercoating my wheels.
Ryu- If you are coming to XPO you can drive my car. I have the JDM gears with the stock 4.06 and NSX-R pre-loaded diff. I think it's perfect for street/track.

Do you feel the 4.55 is to aggressive for hwy driving or for an FI car? Been considering the 4.23 but worried about going higher.
Yes, agreed! I think there's a lot of gain to be had by installing a combination of a light fly, JDM gears and/or a shorter final drive. Flywheels for the NSX are interesting.. since the stock early 5spd have a dual disc setup a lot of the aftermarket clutches are single clutches but will provide a proprietary lightweight fly. Flywheels aren't as interchangeable as other cars I've noticed. Having said that there are only a couple of manufacturers left who made lightweight flys for the stock dual clutch setup. One of them is Jun and the other, the lightest ever made for the NSX, is made by the Tilton folks. I have one i'm waiting to put myself but i'm considering moving away from the OEM clutch disc and pressure plate so I might have to go with a different fly. Still trying to decide on what kind of trans build is suitable for me.. it's mind boggling but seems like you can't really go wrong.I have a 91 and seriously want a light weight flywheel... Which one do you guys go with? That's a mod I've done in every na car previously....
Nice Hugo! I didn't realize you had a 6spd in there. If you're using the stock twin disc 5spd clutch then that must mean you swapped out your 6spd input shaft for the Type R one? Normally, you can't use a 5spd clutch with a stock 6spd trans but you probably knew that.I just ordered the jun flywheel today (6 weeks back order), stock twin clutch and going to go with a 6 speed jdm final drive soon. I hope that will be one of the best mod I hope I had done sooner.
