Hi, I'm looking for one fat five center cap. It doesn't have to be in perfect condition, but I want one that doesn't have all the tabs broken on the back and will remain secure in the wheel at speed. Please email me at [email protected] if you have one to sell. Thanks!

I've had my eye on a 987 or 981 Spyder for quite some time. I think the 981 Spyder is one of the sexiest cars on the road right now. From my research however, one of the big issues with the 981 is the gearing. Second gear goes to something like 80 mph. For the roads I drive, that means...

Thanks! The car has been great. I hope you're still loving that orange beauty of yours!

Hello Gents, Thanks for all the nice comments! It was really fun lining these cars up and seeing them next to each other. We had the C8 back in our shop again the other week to test fit the prototype AP Racing brake system, so I finally got to drive it. I didn't do anything close to what I...

Hellow Gents, I just did a photo shoot with a customer's C8 and my '91 Acura NSX. It's pretty cool to see how the mid-engine layout has developed over the past 30 years! Click the link below to see a bunch of comparison pics on the Essex Blog. 😎 Acura NSX vs. Chevy Corvette C8 Visual Comparison

Nice! I ended up with some OEM 16/17" in Blades Silver. I think they look really good on these cars, and they're what I picture in my mind when I think about a stock NSX. In other words, they were on the car that really captured my imagination back when I was finishing up high school and...

Thanks for the input Mac. My car is a '91, and I actually have the OEM 15/16 setup on the way to me now. That said, I'm really not crazy about the look of the fat fives. In this case, I let vanity get the best of me, as I typically like running the smallest, lightest wheel setup available...

Thanks for the link! Just to be clear, I'm not driving like a maniac on the street. In most cases I'm just buzzing along on country roads. I have a track car for driving at the limit in a controlled environment. I'm just looking for a bit less plow and making the car a little more lively on...

One thing I hate on street cars is having them 'over-tired'. By that I mean, having so much rubber on the road that it's impossible to slide the car or get it to break loose at sane speeds. For example, on my NA Miata I run 185 width all-season tires with something like a 400-500 treadwear...

I'm looking for a full set of the SSR Type C wheels in NSX fitment. My preferences would be 16/17 or 17/17 sizes, and I want a set that doesn't require wheel spacers on a 1991 NSX. I prefer the gunmetal center with polished lip, but will consider other finishes. It doesn't matter if they have...

I'm looking for one non-chrome center cap in good condition for fat fives. Thanks!
