You on here? :D Seen on Ocean street today at around 4PM. I was driving the opposite lane in my BMW. Fairly young asian guy driving the NSX. I'll have to say though. After seeing the new front end in blue up close, its gorgeous unlike the other yellow one I saw at the car show.

1200lbs and street legal??

JJCNSX explained it pretty well. Also if running too rich, the spark plugs will foul up eventually.

If its running overly rich, you should see some black smoke and your mileage will be worse. And a slight decrease in power.

15 secs? Are they serious?!

I feel MR setups (if done right) are naturally a superior setup than other setups. As mentioned, the NSX has a low polar moment of inertia so the chassis is quick to respond. Under higher speeds, when hard braking, weight transfers to the front wheels thus altering the F/R weight distribution...

I was not overly serious. Notice the wink. ;) What I meant was I wouldn't be parking it in crowded parking lots basically. Or at least if I were to park, I'd leave a considerable distance. Sorry for not mentioning it though. Anyways, all the daily driven cars in my family and including mines...

If I had an NSX, I would not be parking it in the city. ;) A busy urban metropolis like San Francisco where door dings and dents are inevitable...

I play the piano. Use to take lessons as a kid but had to quit as I become more busy in highschool. Still play the piano once in a while though.

If you can afford it, an aftermarket ECU has more tuning capabilities than piggyback types. Not sure whats out there for the NSX though. Gains may be minimal (or not) as well if you stay NA so its up to you to see whats out there. I personally run a Microtech LTX8 EMS on my RX7. May consider...

Yup, and lets not forget the 70+ ft. of vacuum hoses too for the 3rd gen RX7. Yikes! :eek:

Yup, my RX7 Turbo has 4 piston brakes too. :)

Nice toys! :cool:

Not sure if this is true but I think the 4th gen RX7 depends on the success of the RX8. The 3rd gen RX7, when released in the states, were notorious for having many problems and recalls.

No offense taken, just glad the rotary is back. :) Though the RX8 will never replace the 3rd gen RX7, it is something new and something more practical to sell before Ford shuts down rotaries forever. Standards for NSX owners are pretty high indeed. After all, the NSX is a VERY high quality car...
