    Canon lens choice - 24-70mm f/2.8 or 17-55 f/2.8

    I am upgrading my Canon xsi to a 60D. I currently have a 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5, 50mm f/1.4, 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS (kit lens), and 70-300mm f/3.5-5.6 IS. I will probably sell the kit lens with the xsi, so I'm looking for a mid range zoom. I am debating between the "L" 24-70mm f/2.8 which does not...

    Science of Speed Twin Turbo

    The context of the discussion is twin turbochargers on a V engine, not engines in general. The point is that a V engine has separated exhaust ports on either sides of the engine - unlike an inline engine. For V engines, twin turbochargers are the most efficient use of exhaust energy. I don't...

    Science of Speed Twin Turbo

    I use the GT-R as it is a prime example of the latest automotive technology, and is the most relevant example to a twin turbocharged NSX. For your information, the turbochargers used on the GT-R are internally wastegated and use the same "mad technology" electronic solenoid method for boost...

    Science of Speed Twin Turbo

    Twin turbochargers old technology? Sorry, I don't follow the logic. Technology advances that benefit a single turbo (like ball bearing cartridges) will benefit a twin setup - because the same technology is in each of the two turbos. Here's an example of the latest technology: Twin turbocharged...

    STMPO Rollbar

    Jim has a very good point. Running the rear members from the main roll bar to the rear shock towers will require the removal of the rear glass. It will require using a plastic rear glass that will need to be cut for holes to run the rear members through. This will make the cockpit VERY noisy...

    Another spin - lessson to be learned

    It takes balls to post video of your track sessions, including posting your mistakes, because you know you will be judged and analyzed by all who read and watch. Personally, I feel this is very useful information and helpful to all, so thank you. I'm sure luck, some error, yet an equal amount of...

    Viper alarm system trunk pop?

    Yes, it is, because the NSX has a electronically activated solenoid to open the trunk. You will need to tap into this circuit to allow the alarm to open the trunk.

    3M CF Wrap Service, wrap anything in CF at dramatic savings

    Re: CF Wrapped NSx Door SiLLS + other parts ~ Pretty COOL! I think what you have is a vinyl sticker with an embossed texture, not actual carbon fiber. It's pretty convincing however.

    NSXclear.com Front Side Marker Replacements

    There are many OEM supplied side markers that are not tinted orange or red. One such example is the Audi and Volkswagen side markers shown here: http://media.photobucket.com/image/audi side blinker/markjl88/VW GLI VR6/SideBlinker.jpg?o=1 The only part with a hue is the bulb itself. If a proper...

    Speed World Challenge Race Car Acura NSX on ebay

    I believe this is Mark Allen's car from San Diego. I believe he bought some bits from RTR, but the car has never been ran by RTR, and I don't think ever raced in World Challenge (it's missing several requirements to even complete in World Challenge). I'm sure as cars pass through different...

    Optimum Ride FIC Custom Turbo

    While it may not be the most optimal way, I give you credit for trying something new. I do wonder how you were able to fit the charge piping in the tunnel. Does the factory tunner cover still fit or is it sticking out from the bottom of the car?
