This post is exhibit 33 why this website holds nothing of value for actual NC1 owners and hence why there are so few here. I have been involved with supercar ownership and internet forums related to that ownership for decades at this point and this is the first car platform I have come across...

If NC1 owners get rough treatment around these parts from NA1 owners, I already feel for those poor EV NSX owners that show up here in a few years.

Dice is mostly on point. I have been a participant on car forums for various cars I have owned for 2 decades at this point. Never has the bulk of the discussion been on a private channel (in this case a Facebook group) instead of a publicly available forum such as this one. However, after I...

Oddly the group got much better after you got the boot :smile:

Says the person who is one of the primary reasons for NC1 owners leaving the site. Your behavior is in large part why a "rebuild" is necessary.

The NC1 seems to make some NA1 owners feel insecure for whatever reason so they feel the need to interject themselves into every NC1 discussion to crap on the car even though most have never driven it and many couldn't afford it. It makes it difficult to have a productive conversation about the...

I didn't expect to see you in here after your predictions (wishes?) for the NC1 platform haven't come true. Keep up the good fight and maybe, just maybe, one day all of your chicken little prognostications will finally come true!

There is a long write-up in the owners group. Map 3 ftw. Tires are junk, had a lot of spin and should do a little better when I get off oem.

I did 160 in the half and 184 in the mile.

The Pirellis aren't used by too many guys due to their expense. Ditto the the Michelins for track usage. For more of a DD tire consensus is Ps4s. Cannot comment on load rating on the R88Rs, just know they stick like balls and people tend to get crazy good times with them. They are also much...

Yep, requires VIN to get in.

I prefer car forums as well but we have to change with the times. I have been on car forums for 20 years or so but car discussion is definitely migrating towards social media based groups. The discussion isn't as deep as it is on forums but there is more of it and, as a result, great info gets...

Actions speak louder than words. I am checking it out after a year or so.

For reasons I won't get into, this forum is a ghost town for NC1 information. If you buy a car and join the NC1 owners group on FB there is a huge amount of information on mods including JB4. It is an incredibly popular mod with the majority of the owners in the group having one and I believe...

The 10.4 was without downpipes. The downpipes certainly help but the majority of the power comes from the JB4. Both are certainly worth doing with dps being the best mod for the car imo as the driving experience is enhanced so greatly by the sound. And yes, all quoted power figures include dps.

Get on the FB group as there is tons of discussion there. Catless will throw CELs which may impact performance. SOS and GRP are gold standards, I went with Redstar as they cut me a deal in exchange for some promo material I shot for them. They are 95% the same, even use the same HJS cats...

They all come with the same tires, OEM contis were garabge prior to 2019, now they are just mediocre. Everyone runs PS4S for street or if going more extreme R888r.

Someone in the FB group ran a 10.4 today. Likewise with JB4 if you can get good traction I believe 2.6 is fairly easily attainable on the 98 oct map. I am 5'9'' and fit the car just fine. And it is stupid fast. I personally hit 184 in a standing mile event recently and that was with spinning...

Every time I wander back here I am reminded why most NC1 guys avoid this forum since it is full of NA1 owners that are bitter since a new Honda Civic would show its tail lights to an NA1. I wish I had as much time as you to go to car forums for cars I don't like to crap on them because they are...

Ferrari is mostly spun off now from FCA so Maserati is finally allowed to truly compete. Also, while they try to downplay this, this car is essentially a larger souped up 4C. It uses a modified version of the CF tub already developed for the 4C that is built by the same supplier that AR used...

How's that? There are multiple posts a day, almost all constructive/helpful, new products and reviews posted that never make it here, no non owners with too much time on their hands that sit around and talk trash all day, etc. There is tons of good information there. Nearly none here.
