    State of the art brakes...Or snakeoil ?

    Guys, Thanks for all the information its really usefull, Not sure about all your opinions but the ZMI that I indicated that had been discussed in my opening post seems just as contentious now as it was origionally. I had seen the vented alcon caliper, I think something similar was tried on the...

    Lighter Improved Exhaust

    CrazyNSX, I completed the exhaust a few months ago and am very pleased with the result. Like other members of this forum I was looking for a good balance of weight saving, sound and asthetics as well as something slightly freer flowing that the stock oem. THe flowmaster seems to do that well...

    State of the art brakes...Or snakeoil ?

    Guys, Thanks for all your comments. This thread is not aimed to be particularly contentious. My intention is to actually what people consider state of the art on the NSX. I didn't think the dual single rotors design was that common which is why I was interested in others opinions. There is a...

    State of the art brakes...Or snakeoil ?

    Guys Have any of you brake experts seen or heard of the following. http://www.delphi.com/pdf/e/br_max_torque.pdf The concept seems to me to make a lot of sense over the current types of system. IIRC there was adiscussion on here about a similar system using a single titanium alloy rotor as...

    Guys, We were there that day, it was great fun, about 6 or 7 nsx's my friends ITR, tvr's and M'coupes, the little guy from Top gear was driving a renault round or something but not that quickly. Dale had the NSX1 car, and it was possibly Andrews car in red. Bedford is an excellent safe track...

By using its central ridge and the rim edge at a45 degree angle between the base of the gas pump hand trigger and the trigger whilst you are filling the...

    Very cool upgrade I just did to my NSX

    Ultimate Rain-x Hi Guys, A number of you have mentioned rain-x which works fine but needs regular recoats. I have been using a product on my cars for the last few years that is significantly better, it lasts between 6 -18 months depending on rain content and wiper activity and apparently...

    Progressive Nitrous and Mapped ECU

    As there has been a lot of discussion on Nos systems and replacement after market ECU’s I just wanted to ask everyone’s thoughts about specifically mapping for “On-Gas” profiles. This is something I have seen much more other side of the Atlantic and in the Australasian arenas. I am interested...

    Wet Or Dry System And Why....

    Hi All, 96-EJ6 has summed it up quite clearly, but I would just like to offer a few words on my own opinions from the way N2O is run on the other side of the atlantic and in the Australasian areas. As long as its well installed ( fuel pressure cutoffs, W.O.T switches and line purge etc ) and...

    Lighter Improved Exhaust

    Hi Guys, I know there has been some talk recently of the use in the US of the flowmaster exhaust sytem on the NSX, Well I have been quite interested in this solution as a way to improve upon the standard exhaust without going too loud for track days. The system uses a Series 80 Deltabox...

    24th May. UK NSX owners track day.

    Hi Dale, Nice to meet you on Saturday. Nice videos Same as most of the NSX's I had done the brakes by the end of the day and was a little worried about the trip home. Luckily Halfords in Bedford had a set of legend pads, (same fitting) and 24.99 and the use of their car park she was up and...

    24th May. UK NSX owners track day.

    HI All, This event should be truly excellent, Bedford has great instructors ( for those that need help like me ) Long Run-offs with no barriers ( should the unthinkable happen ) But more importantly a challanging and exciting circuit of almost 4 miles. Unlike some other tranks I don't beleive...

    Mark Basch superchargers (my opinion)

    Thankfully (well mediated LUD) since we all seem to have finally decided on the correct terminology for the various available automotive acronyms associated with forced induction. I feel that to be "true" to the spirit of "True's" obsessive compulsive attention to detail we should also clear up...

    What Brand Of Tire Would YOU Run?

    I'm Surprised no one has mentioned the Goodyear Eagle F1, are they available over there ? Its rated #1 in all the comparison tests. The latest version DS-G3 includes silicon within the compound that makes a massive improvement in the wet, Unfortunately we have a lot of wet wether over here in...

    Fast and the Furious 2

    Hi There sure was an NSX in the behind the scenes footage, in fact it was in three places but of probably the same car. It was a black hardtop manual raced by an cute asian and her friend, it was on the strip with a 200sx or something, the X beat it beat easily but they didnt show you times or...

    zex nitrous

    Nsxlr8. I don’t quite think you understand what I am talking about... I am talking about a Professional Progressive system. Just like you I’m sure you are aware an engine needs different amounts of fuel fed in under different Rpm/load and throttle conditions, in order to achieve the optimum...

    zex nitrous

    Primarily for DutchBlack but also any other europeans interested in nitrous, I have worked with nitrous on various cars and would highly recomend the Trevor Langford "wizards of NOZ" systems from here in the UK. A wet system with direct port injection is technically the best solution especially...

    BBSC and Fully mapped ECU

    Why take away this choice and force the customer to bur yet another replacement part? Why not give the Customer the "option" of tuning the system and that way you are also adding long term value to the purchase. How many of us have bought component X only to decide further down the line that we...

    BBSC and Fully mapped ECU

    Bonez In regards to the idea of not calibrating it, well surely noone would be crazy enough to try that, its the whole point of a fully mapped ecu that you "map it" I.E. rolling road it. Thats what customizes it and makes it right not just for a generic nsx engine or even a specific type ...
