    What type of suspension is the best for ride and handling...?

    I think keeping the bypass valves with only 1 setting is actually the gimmick of the Ohlins DFV (it's in the acronym itself). In real use it's indeed really good.

    WTB: OEM alternator (dead or working)

    Got one that's still working if you want to play extra for shipping + customs (i'm in EU).

    bogle's 1991 mild build thread

    Fantastic photos. LOL this shows your car gets driven. I dont think one could get by even for a few miles without a lift system and keep that front lip intact. On mine the front lip is holding by the magic of hopes and prayers at this point :D Side note I'm getting ideas with that rear...

    FOUNDRY 3 ALUMINUM ALTERNATOR BRACKETS

    FWIW they use higher grade materials to start with. Also a fully CNC'ed part from billet is always structurally superior to cast, due to metallurgy: cast metal has a lower elasticity modulus, and will bend/break sooner. So yes you can then forge cast parts in order to get a thermodynamic reflow...

    FOUNDRY 3 ALUMINUM ALTERNATOR BRACKETS

    It's CNC'ed billet alu which is much stronger than cast parts. It would make zero sense for the OEM to do this due to insane costs & labor as opposed to a cast, large series produced part that's why Honda went with a recycled Accord/Legend bracket. I get the NSX chassis had a large amount of...

    FOUNDRY 3 ALUMINUM ALTERNATOR BRACKETS

    I've had that bracket (and the engine mounts from the same source) for about 2 years now and zero issue despite tracking the car and very spirited driving, and bumpy roads full of pot holes. You still use the OEM alternator.

    1998 NA2 Coupe full refresh adventures

    Thanks :) That was in Austria. In now 3 weeks see you in Italy ! I really need a new front lip... But I need to install that lift system first or it will get destroyed as well. It's in the works, new center console has to go in first so I can install the lift system button. It's not yet the end...

    Original 1991 NSX spare wheel for sale anyone?

    I have the 95-01 spare tire and the holder too somewhere. It's really heavy though shipping will be more expensive than the item itself..

    Question about the which models of the Gen1 NSX has C32B engine in it

    There are a few 2002-2005 NA2 coupes in EU too by the way (if you prefer LHD) ;)

    Gen one FL to France

    If you import to France directly, IIRC that's the only thing you'll have to do - no TUV like in Germany - just get the lights and blinkers sorted out. It will have to pass emissions (and MOT) but that should be straightforward for a stock-ish NSX. For the rear fog light that might be tricky as...

    Wheel size TCS

    The 16-17 setup is stock pre-facelift NA2 or NA1 type R sizes. Maybe the TCS computer was changed ?
