Not only will oil flow and valve float be issues but another limiting factor will be piston speed. The Fuzzy Green Carpets http://www.mp3.com/fuzzygreen

One other thing to consider is the fact that since the c5 has a different engine drive wheel layout (FR) it is more prone to powertrain loss. Also, Honda's usually have very efficiant transimissions as far as putting the power of the engine to the wheels. I doubt that a transmission made by...

Looks like Acura made the Integra look like a Paseo with a high cowl. Ugh. I guess this is just another excuse to finally get an NSX. Steve <a Href="http://www.mp3.com/fuzzygreen">The Fuzzy Green Carpets</a>

I'm not against all mods. Just the ones that are gaudy or go against the original features and design. In fact I use to own a couple of highly modified honda's: A 1989 CRX SI with ZC engine drop, headers, exhaust, intake, Integra ECU, 8lbs flywheel, ACT Xtreme PPlate and clutch, Del Sol thin...

You guys are a little off on your estimate about how reducing weight will affect performance. It effect is actually greater. Because it is an exponential rate. For instance if you remove 100 lbs form a 3000 lbs car you just reduced the weight by 3.3%. If you remove 100 lbs from a 2000 lbs car...

Does anyone else agree that the stock bodied, 94+ stock rimed NSX is the best? I get disgusted when I see body kits, different rims (especially heavy chromed ones), wings, and other gaudy modifications on NSX'es. Why do people destroy their perfect $80k sports car in such ways. Do they just have...

Hey NSXadmirer, You should go to the next Milpitas meeting. I went once and I had a blast. If you want an NSX you will want one a lot more after getting a ride in one. Steve The Fuzzy Green Carpets http://www.mp3.com/fuzzygreen

From vtec.net: " Submitted by Wolfang M. on February 08, 2001 at 00:27:03: German magazine "auto, motor & sport" writes, that the next NSX will be ready in 2003. A design-study will be shown at Tokyo Motor Show this year (2001) in October. First drawing shows no major changes to recent model...

Why was my post deleted? It was about NSX owners being materialistic. I wanted to hear replies on this. Personally I think that the answer is no as long as it is an interest/hobby and not for showing off.

I was talking to a "friend" and telling him how I am planning on buying an NSX this new year and he replied that people who buy very expensive cars are materialistic. Well, what do you think? My opinion is that anytime you buy an expensive object that is not needed unless it is because of a...

a "what's new" section would be very helpful, especially for your regulars. Thanks. The Fuzzy Green Carpets http://www.mp3.com/fuzzygreen

Unfortunatly modification parts are unrecoverable expenses in most cases. You are probably better off returning the car to stock form and selling the parts individually. I have had three highly modified Honda's over the last six years and I never once was able to sell the car for more because of...
