Made some changes to my NSX

[rominl]

Been a few months since I got the car and did a few changes. Tinted the car, lowered it with Eibach and Bilstein, and 18/19 Work VS-XX with Yoko S drive. Also had the car professionally detailed (http://www.glossworksla.com/). They did insane work and it's like mirror. Now finally the car is back in the showroom condition, I decided to take a few pics. Nothing fancy

Fine looking car! I love the wheels and the drop looks perfect :smile:

That looks terrible. The wheels, awful, the white color, putrid, the tint, not feelin' it. If today was April Fools' Day or Opposite Day you'd understand what I'm saying.

God, I LOVE white on an NSX, and those wheels look fantastic. I'm green with envy. Damn near perfection.

:smile: Smashing. Real nice.

 

[NSXASTY]

nice, whats the specs on your vs-xx's?? im still waiting for mines to arrive from japan.

 

[rominl]

thanks everyone.

NSXASTY, i think they are 18x8 +38 and 19x9 +26. both a disk (standard). for the rear i am not sure if you can do super-low, it might hit the caliper. for the front i don't plan to put bbk so this is fine, otherwise you need high disk

any back shots showing a reference from the fender to wheels?? i'm trying to see if i can go with a 10" wide rear rim. what suspension are you running?? thanks!!

 

[rominl]

i am running eibach/bilstein. 10" in the back should be ok. if the same flush as mine, it will be 19x10 +38. i don't rub in the back with 265, i suppose you can go 275. if you run eibach, just be careful on the space inside, some say wheel will get very close to the suspension

Clean clean clean, don't change a thing!

Very nice!

Gorgeous car, I can sit there and look at that car all day!

 

[rominl]

thanks everyone! the wheels do set the car off, and the shine is just wow

 

[ChrisK]

Simply Awesome. Simple changes but it makes a world of difference. I kind of miss my GPW.

 

[myw]

beautiful. almost missed this!

I don't like it all.
Looks like crap.:frown:


:biggrin:


It's perfect. Now it's time for some exhaust

The stance is absolutely perfect. Nicely executed.

OP, I'm just looking to confirm your 18x8+38's didn't require and shaving down of your calliper, or any other modifications. How much clearance do you have from the front of your caliper to the back of the spokes? By the paint on your calipers I'm assuming NA2 as well.

NSXTACY and rominl, I'm currently running 19x10+38mm VS-XX's in the back with 275/30R19's

thanks again everyone, appreciate all the kind words!!!!!!

yes, the front are 18x8 +38. the key is standard disc. work wheels have 3 disk types, low, standard, and high. that determines the spokes design and how much they curve out to clear the caliper. standard is good enough to clear the stock caliper. if you get bbk, you need high disk. you can't use low disk for the front, it will hit. i didn't have to shave my wheel or caliper (no way I would attempt that), and i think i still have like 3mm of spacing?

my car is na2 (2002).

for your rear, 19x10 +38, that's exactly the same as mine (outboard wise) at 19x9 +26. and given the offset, i believe we both have standard disk as well

Nicely executed! Congrats!

I recently {last week} installed some S-Drives and now my fronts rub close to full turn. This has never happened with any other 215 on my front. Rear 275's even look taller than my 275 Hankooks.

 

[Dynamic-uzed-auto]

Ok stunning

 

[rominl]

yup s drive is definitely meaty, as in most yoko tires imho

 

[Mikexike]

one fine machine.
