Replaced my street tires recently and after watching many tire tests chose Nankang NS-2's on 18" and 19". Left them on for the very first Suzuka NSX Club Japan track meeting as Honda has stopped holding the events. Four cars were chauffeured around behind a very fast new Honda Civic Type R as we...
Nice car Blake but good luck with the necessary conversion. Getting really hard to locate a clean example. There will be constant maintenance as the car is getting old. Maybe can see you at the Kinokuni booth in the next Tokyo Auto Salon. Have read your Speedhunter articles which are great.
Great looking car as mine is the same, red with black top 91. I agree with others that I'm always looking forward to the next drive. In my opinion the interior with the flip up steering wheel is a great idea. Leather seats are great for cruising but on the track a full bucket really makes you...
Great thread however while I can understand that people will look and comment about the NSX in most countries it doesn't happen here in Japan. I have driven my 91 NSX for over 8 years in Japan and no one has commented on the car. At car events it's popular but not on the street so it is fun to...
Well done importing your rare car. I have a 91' here in Japan with one of the same problems. The 1st gen. ALB was not very good however the next generation was very good so it is best to swap out the unit to the 2003 or later system. Also I had a dash light continuously on for the rear lights...
The refresh plan has taken a rest till September so they can introduce a new format and possible a new build system, I'm guessing on the last part
I've sent a mail to he who knows these things so that some contact at least might be possible.

Congratulations on taking the plunge from the R32 which is a very different beast. I was at the Kinokuni Enterprises booth at the last Tokyo Auto Salon. Living close to the Kansai airport.
Hi Scammy, .. Kinokuni have just put out our latest catalogue and would send you one if I can get you address. Don't have Skype but have LINE or the normal email address. Am I allowed to post that here?

Shouldn't any problem to join the club from overseas but the emails are all in Japanese, zero English. The club president speaks and writes English well.
Prices in Japan
Over the last 2 years prices in Japan have risen on all very clean manual cars. The average/normal mileage for a 1991 is 47,000 miles and price around $48,000 which is up 20%. Type R's are not available at $60,000US. There are around 100 cars always for sale but poor...
Left NZ at 22 and hardly been back. Now based in Osaka, Japan. Have built up Kinokuni which is a race parts shop that joins all the main car parts together. Fuel clutch, water,oil. Catalogue is 230 pages. See you at the Tokyo Auto Salon maybe.
