    1998 Honda NSX

    Unfortunately, I have some very sad news to tell. Last Monday evening on December 14th, 2020, around 21:00 hours, my 1998 Honda NSX-T was stolen from the parking garage it was Parked in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The car had been standing still due to both the coronavirus but also because of...

    Friendly review from CarBuzz

    Agree completely with you on the 'misunderstood' part. Even the first generation was not received that well by many. Some felt that Honda could have done better in the performance category. With the new NSX, I have always felt that if you want to get the most out of this car you will need to...

    Friendly review from CarBuzz

    Certainly very nice review. It is me or is it real that current day review on the NSX are more positive than the ones that were made just after launch?

    Engine misfires when cold, much less when warm

    I am having an issue with my '98 NSX with CTSC. Have just taken her out of storage after a few months because of winter time. Now, I find that when I start the engine, it seems to be running on only 5 cylinders. It will run steadily with the 6th cylinder only intermittently joining in. Then...

    99 top speed

    On a stock NSX it always felt like the nose would get a bit light at very high speeds. But other than that, and with a good, straight and dry road and good tires, the safe top speed is simply the top speed of the car. Which will read about 280 kph (174 mph) on the odo if you have the space to...

    Supra???

    Saw the pictures yesterday. Am not impressed. Like you said, looks like a rebadged Z4, which happens to be a car that I also don't like very much. Nose far too long IMHO and rear to short. Always looked to me like one of those cartoon cars in comic books. If you're used to the clean and pretty...

    which supercharger kit is the better deal for me?

    I have been runing a Autorotor CTSC with the 440CC injectors, Walbro fuel-pump en AEM FIC for about two years now. Before the addition of the FIC I learned too late that the car would start running lean at high RPM and so blew my piston rings on two cylinders. Now, with a second engine, I have...

    The NSX is slow...oh really?

    The NSX from ProCar in Germany (the guy that sold all the carbon fiber parts) had an original NSX-R engine installed in his NSX and put it on the dyno. If I remember correctly, it made something like 323 HP. That's more than the 'standard' NSX, but not that much more. I do know that although...

    The NSX is slow...oh really?

    Several years ago there was an article on Jalopnik about the way Ferrari acted when a magazine or journalist requested a Ferrari model for testing. If it was found they wanted to track the car, Ferrari would first setup a specific car for that particular track, just so the car would do well. I...

    Where are all the Production deliveries ??

    I must be different. I am not in the market for the new NSX, but if I would, I would buy it in an instant. Why? Because I just want to have something different, something that is really special. A Ferrari or a Lambo seems to be what succesfull people buy because they seem to think that is...

    Where are all the Production deliveries ??

    So few sold! I really do not understand Honda at times. Look like they are 'doing' exactly the same thing with the new, 2nd gen NSX as with the first. The first NSX was in many ways a revolutionary car (IMHO) compared to its competitors. It wasn't the fastest, it wasn't the coolest, but it did...

    What is your daily driver!?

    Just came across this topic. Actually, my daily driver is very simple, a Honda Insight with the IMA Hybrid drive from 2009. Really like that car, very comfortable and fuel efficient. In many ways the opposite of the NSX but of course much, much cheaper to run. Which is exactly why I got it...

    If you need some NSX in your home.

    I respectfully disagree. The elbow rests on that chair are way too short for the girl to drape her legs over.. :biggrin:
