Guys Here we Go again I picked this 1992 NSX 5-Speed from the owner of Source1 Brian.

this car is so solid, I flew to Ohio Friday morning and drove it back to Tampa got home 1:40am saturday.

the drive home was fun, the exhuast was custome made by Brian its like a drug it sounds so good.

now Brian gave me a set of original rims and the tires had some meat left on them but I didnt wanna get the car over 90mph

as I didnt trust the tires since they were not new. I purchased the car for a Friend he wants it to be converted to Imola Orange Pearl

and hell..... we are just going to go ahead and do the full 02+ conversion while we are at it.... hell....... lets do headers...... hell..... new leather interior....

hell...... full audio Upgrade.... hell...... new rims maybe 17-18inch....

so Stay tuned I dont think anyone has done a full bolt for bolt picture step for step HOW TO DIY Conversion on NSXPRIME before.

I will take pics of every single screw during this process.. no loligaging around.... no one needs to ask for more updates on the project it will be updated with pics almost hourly.

here is the base car, Brian had it wrapped white he peeled most of it off so I could see the panels were in mint condition.

Stay tuned guys. an ideas post them ...
