    NSX ready for a different paint scheme??

    5Zigen Gravis wheels

    These wheels are discontinued but I really like the "no lip" look. If anyone knows when I can get a used or new set 18/19 Let me know. I am hoping that maybe someone out there works at a shop or knows someone who is wanting to sell theirs. I have been online but because this is a discontinued...

    5Zigen Gravis wheel

    Thanks for the response. out of curiosity: Instead of 35/38, if I go with more of an offset, that actually "tucks" the wheels more, correct? 18X7.5 - offset 35 (comes in 35/43/48) 19X9.5 -offset 38 (comes in 25/38/45) Also, when I called the wheel company, the guy on the phone asked me what...

    5Zigen Gravis wheel

    So I am looking at getting the 5Zigen Gravis wheel 18-7.5/19.9.5 I want the wheel to be either "flush" with the body or just slightly "tucked" I have been looking through the tire forum and see several examples of the 18/19 combo. However, most of them have a decent size lip on them. So if I...

    Powder Coating Opinion

    I beg to differ !!! I think Red NSX, with ALL black rims (like many of the GT cars have) is sic ! If you want to get rid of those SSR's I will take them, blast them and powder coat them completely black ! IMO I think the best look, no lip at all on the rim, flush with the wheel well or...

    Stereo components for sale - CD changer/speakers

    I have the original door speakers and CD changer for Sale. The CD changer works perfectly and one of the door speakers was not working correctly. I could hear sound out of it but not very well, so I assumed that the power amp is gone or going. If you are interested let me know. Thanks

    New paint job

    I am sure this has been posted but I wanted to get some current feedback on those who have had their NSX repainted a differnet color. I am thinking about something a little more "classic" like a charcoal grey with a bit of color in the clear (blue). Right now it is red and I am wondering if I...
