It's definitely been through the paces!
Are there ever any issues with the engine/emission mods and the police?
From other threads I've seen from California I've thought they were tough out in California, pulling people over, and giving summons for that stuff. Does that really happen?
Looks like you're having fun. Once you start it goes on and on don't it?:smile:

That was one of the best threads I've read in a long time. Nice write-up.
IMHO, my favorite was the NSX-R wing. :wink:

is there anything NSX left about this car?
The fun thing was searching old threads I had created, looking for pictures of the car at various states. It was nice to see pictures of other members cars at the same time, to see what was happening at the time, or to see where I said the car was finished, or almost finished, when it's radically different now.
The state is strict on emissions, but like many other states, there are different zones of testing. Some areas don't have rolling dyno tests, they just do an idle test, which is easier to pass. Other areas of the state have issues with street-racing, such as San Diego, and profile cars much more often.
The headliner is stock
Great thread. Since I am going in a similar direction w/ my car this help out. Thanks for spending the time to make this thread.:smile:
needs more cowbell :biggrin:
