Ill bump this as someone thats owned >three< NSXs in the past (incl being one of the few lunatics who bought an actual new one in 03), and a 911 and now a GTR. The GTR *does* look much better in person, IMO, but *is* an odd design. The idea that "no one looks at it" is preposterous. I'm a...

This... Without a tune the GTR won't make anything over stock with just the midpipe IMO... Maybe a few HP, or maybe even a step back depending on what the ecu tries to do. With a Cobb ap, huge difference. Cobb plus latest 17.5psi stage 2 map plus midpipe would likely be +100hp at the wheels...

The power of the irony here could potentially turn this thread epic! Now where is that popcorn emote???

Its pretty complex... Over the past 50 years or so the West chose to outsource poverty to the East little by little. The end result was that some in the West solidified a position of staggering wealth and control, while most have enjoyed comparatively modest success, but still lavish compared...

This can go on forever and is pointless IMO. Having owned both, my answer to the OP is you need to drive them. I put 40k miles on a C5 (stock at first, then modded) I have put nearly 40k miles on various NSX's over the years as well (stock, new and modded heavily) Once I had driven the NSX...

I use it as my daily... It's awesome. I was a big GTR doubter as well... Until I thought about it and drove it... In downsizing to a single, year round car, rather than having a truck + toy car (a combo I just didn't enjoy) I went from Ralliart to Evo X (both great cars), flirted again with...

I'm a big 911 fan as they make great year round daily drivers (esp C4 and turbo) I almost got back into one recently (I also love the 996 lights and was considering a 996t or 997.1t), but went GTR instead. Good source for info is: http://forums.rennlist.com/ Also 6speedonline.com

Watching this now... I was about to doze off after watching the WRX episode when I saw the NSX and woke up immediately! Lol My first thought was "damn that car looks familiar!" Sure enough.... ;) Great job Alex! Your X looks absolutely gorgeous and you were fantastic on the show. The lady...

OP is all set with larry and of course cant go wrong there, but for future searches... Bernie is absolutely great and when I had my 99 I got TB/WP done with him at Davis. Nice bonus was the dealer service treatment which meant loaner car, dealer paperwork, etc. It was pricey for sure, but not...

I lurked for about a year on Prime after buying my first NSX before finally joining. Nostalgia threads are interesting... What I wonder is whether any of the folks who have been long absent will be back with the return of the NSX in 201x... will be interesting to see if Honda can recapture the...

This is what literally every other event every other weekend of every year is for. Cars and coffee, fun runs... The list is endless. Paid events have tight, closed, schedules because people who pay hundreds of dollars for a convention *want* a tight closed schedule. If there is time when...

Sale pending

Is it just me or is there something kind of creepy about this photo? LOL

Hello Prime! I am testing the waters on selling my baby. It is my 3rd NSX, and by far my absolute favorite. I have owned her since 09 and hate to part with her, but I am going to have to relo for work and it would be easier to sell. That said, I am by no means looking for an emergency fire...

Its funny because this thread is in two different directions and I think thats somewhat confusing to newbies. On the one hand, we have a (pretty short) list of folks who everyone agrees are some of the only people they would let touch their car for anything major On the other hand, we have...

Went from the 03 to the 911 back in 05 or so when we learned the baby was on the way (figured Id do 4 seats) Ended up trading the 911 for a truck. Added my current 99 as a 3rd car in 09. This is my 3rd NSX (originally had a 98 that I traded in for the 03 back in 03) I tend to have ADD with...

Most folks maintaining the cars do so because they are keeping them. Most buyers on this forum likely either bought new, or sucked it up and bought a car with deferred maintenance and then had the work done. Once you own the car you're going to need to do it anyway at some point, unless you...

Personally, I think an NA2 is a big difference in a lot of ways vs an NA1. I feel the difference immediately. It is also a big difference (and always will be) in terms of market value. I also felt the 03 had a build quality difference I couldnt put my finger on that I definitely felt...

Modding is fully 100% subjective. Only you really know if you're done and the only person you should be seeking validation from is in the mirror. If this thread goes on enough I am sure you will get a contingent that says "19's, widebody, HELLA FLUSH!" passionately and with 100% seriousness...

A couple of the F chat guys have NSX's in the stable side by side with multiple Ferraris, but Im not sure if they cross post here.

Well its your (theoretical) money, but IMO brakes are a complete waste of cash. I think the "deficiency" of the NSX brakes are massively overstated on the forums by folks who want a BBK for whatever reason (looks, bragging rights, etc) and then need to rationalize it because it is so massively...

I remember those old original Tubi threads, but didnt remember this particular aspect. We Tubi owners salute you! It is, as always, a really great part from Tubi - they are real artists. Plus, it always commands respect from the Ferraristas at Cars and Coffee ;)

For sound, I love my Tubi. It isnt light (only a little bit lighter than stock) and makes a few HP less than the more free flowing exhausts, but the sound is fantastic.

Leaving aside the fact that, IMO, this utterly destroys a beautiful classic by replacing the hand assembled aluminum panels with miles of shit fiberglass from a ghetto fabricator.... Im trying to wrap my mind around just *who* is the market that looks at *that* and says "oh yeah.. $100k? WORTH...

TB Changed at 42k! Probably 42k was like 9 years ago though :D
