Today, I took my 92 NSX on a trip and noticed that it was very difficult to get into gear. I thought at first it was because the transmission was cold (I also run Redline tranny fluid) but after an hour of driving it was still difficult to get into gear, especially reverse. I have 49,000 miles...

Speaking of the M3! Especially the convertible, I have a funny story for you. My wife and I were visiting her parents in Omaha and went to Classic Motors. They specialize in Porsche, BMW, Ferrari and other sports/exotic cars. We went in and they asked us what we were looking for and told them...

NSEX, How much for the Volk wheels? Are they the 17x7 or 8 and 18x9.5? My email is [email protected], let me know asap. Thanks

Not to change the subject but how does your supercharged M3 compare to your NSX? I am considering purchasing a 4-door M3 and putting a supercharger on it. What type of hp gains did you get? Did it make a huge difference? What were the costs involved if you do not mind my asking?

10 or even 15 years from now, what car would you really rather drive around? An NSX or a Corvette. When you see a 10 year old Corvette, does it make you crank your neck around like say an NSX? Probably not! The NSX is in a different league. Do not get me wrong, the Corvette is a great car...

You will gain high-end hp (7,500-8,000) but loose torque down low. My guess is around a 6-7 hp gain and a loss of 7-9 ft-lbs. of torque.

Edo, You are correct about the ram-air system and the hp gained. I figure that it is good for 15hp at the crank at about 80+mph. It knocked off almost 2/10th on my 1/4 mile times though which I think is quite good. As far as the times you are quoting for a 92 NSX at 14.0sec in the 1/4...

The setup that I run is as follows: No cat.converter, stock 15/16" wheels but with 255ZRs on the back with about 15-20lbs of pressure, RM clutch, lowering springs, no passenger seat (70lbs), no spare tire (30lbs), ram-air intake above rear hatch (GT1 style), Ford F-250 K&N panel filter, and very...

It is a 92.

The only mods that I have are a modified air intake (above the rear glass hatch, GT1 style), springs, 265ZR tires, RM clutch. Most of my runs are right around 13.3@106-7mph.

The Z06 does not put down 385hp at the wheels!!!!! It is at the crank, you need to look over your articles again, and 425hp at the wheels for a Viper? The best I have personally witnessed is 387hp(stock) but I have read about one that put down 392hp(stock). The highest I have seen for a stock...

The best time in my 92 is a 13.2@108mph.

Are you going to be at the Vintage races at Road America on the 20-23th of July? If you are, let me know! We are going to up there filming and would love to get some footage from inside an F40!

Edo, The software that comes with the radar gun is called Stalker ATS. The radar gun links to your laptop via a 9 pin cable and then plugs into your parallel port. You then control the gun from the laptop. It already has several (about 25) performance perameters you can choose from but then...

Lud, Actually, in the program with the radar gun you can have it show NHRA 1/4 times and speed or actuall time and speeds. You are correct in that the acutall speeds are higher than NHRA settings. You can also set it up for different roll-out distances. Any distance you want actually. We...
