    Spacers on Stock 16/17 wheels?

    I am looking for quality, lightweight spacers for my 2000 NSX with stock wheels (not lowered). I would like the wheels pushed to slightly less than flush with the fenders. As best as I can tell, I am thinking 25 mm in front and 30 mm in back would do the trick. I see spacers for sale for...

    Time to Highlight the NC1s BEST Design Points

    I can be a bit of a critic and even a perfectionist when it comes to things I am passionate about. So it was very natural to post several times about areas where its design could be improved. Today, I would like to try going in another direction and I don't recall seeing such a thread. SO...

    Chris Harris Compares NSX to R8 and 911 Turbo

    Still wants an NSX. Keeps saying its a baby 918. Complains about Interior: Paddles and Storage. An impractical Honda? Who would have imagined that? Link: https://www.topgear.com/videos/chris-harris-drives/chris-harris-drives-honda-nsx-vs-audi-r8-v10-vs-porsche-911-turbo

    Zero Pieces of Luggage - Car and Driver In Depth Revew

    They say they can't even load one piece of luggage (22" X 14" X 9") in the NSX trunk and give it the lowest rating compared to McLaren 570S, I8 and 911. 2 Stars out of 5!!! Here is the link...

    9 SPD DCT with Reverse?

    Was thinking about the way Koenigsegg doesn't use a tranny (the one with gears not the person) with its hybrid car and thought the NSX might do without a reverse gear since it has the TMU. I haven't looked but I am guessing they have a reverse gear. But if that is true, wouldn't it be a...

    918 Torque Figures VS NSX Torque Figures

    I am wondering why Porsche seems to be quoting the total system torque at 944 lb-ft which is basically adding the maximum torque from the 2 electric motors to the maximum torque from the ICE while Honda doesn't take that approach. If Honda did, they would report total torque at 623 lb-ft...

    Interesting Read comparing DCT to Direct Drive in Hybrids: Accord, NSX and Regera

    The Koenigsegg Regera, like the NSX has three electric motors - one linked to a turbocharged engine and the other 2 motors to provide torque vectoring (but not 4 wheel drive). But Koenigsegg skipped the complexity of the DCT and went with direct drive like the Accord Hybrid. As far as I know...

    Ford is using them on the $67k Mustang GT350R and they seem to be game changers.

    Predictions from 2013

    Interesting to see what was predicted now that we know the facts: http://www.motortrend.com/news/hypercar-blueprint/ Someone definitely spilled the beans. Is the 500 HP of the V-6 because they include the electric motor? They predict 450 from the V-6 and 50 from the adjacent motor back in...

    Another NSX Review in Robb Report by Basem Wasef

    Link: http://robbreport.com/automobiles/driving-2017-acura-nsx-supercar-track-review I like his comment where he says: "The experience becomes even more impressive on the road, where the NSX's ability to corner hard, brake and accelerate comes across as effortless and seemingly infinite." I...

    Primer's Wishlist Since NSX 2.0 is Delayed

    OK, so we are all disappointed that the car is delayed yet again and this news is testing the Honda faithful. Though I believe they have taken the new car in the right direction for the most part, I think there are more than a few of us here that feel the car needs more time in the oven before...

    New NSX Snubbed By Chris Harris During Geneva Auto Show

    Is Chris Harris' bias is showing through here? In this two-part video review of the Geneva auto show, Harris highlights the new Civic Type R (with the NSX in the background) as well as the new Ferrari 488 GTB and the new McLaren 675 LT, but does not even mention the NSX. He even says he is...

    NSX and Ford GT to Attend Chicago Auto Show

    Just announced: The Ford GT and Acura NSX were the darlings of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit a couple weeks ago. And, we've just received word that they will, in fact, be on display at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. You have no idea what a coup this is, as both automakers...

    NSX 2.0 Positives

    Not that we needed some balance on Prime but I thought it would be helpful note what some of us love about the production 2015 NSX. Haters post somewhere else :) For Me: - Love the Exhaust: Combines the 4 pipes of the C7 with the Trapezoid of the One:1 - Love the surface vents and details...

    Chevy to Jump on the Bandwagon with Mid-Engine C8 Corvette

    This is exciting and concerning at the same time. If Honda ever needed to rise to the challenge, this is the time. Overall, I like the NSX Concept's styling better but have to admit that this rendering of the C8's back-end is what they should have done...and could still do...

    Drifting with Torque Vectoring?

    The big thing these days with high performance sports cars seems to be having the ability to hang the tail out around corners in an easy and controllable way. Just look at any Chris Harris video and he takes great pleasure in steering with opposite lock. From what I have read, the original NSX...

    2001 NSX Red and Tan with Supercharger in Glendale

    I'm from Iowa but love the year and color combo. So I am leaning on Prime to helpout with reviewing this car: http://www.classicsportsandtrucks.com/index.php?action=listingview&listingID=17 Its listed for $59,000 on Craigslist. Has anybody driven it or gone to see it? Thanks Stephen
