What are some things left to do?

What are some things left to do?

I’m looking for a 6 speed gearbox w R ratios and a mugen LSD, engine wise yet to do toda ITBs with spec C cams and valve springs, new injectors, convert to DBW and a standalone ECU with a proper tune. Suspension I want to get some new shocks maybe the KW v3 with nose lift if possible and refresh a couple of suspension arms…still a fair way off hahaha

I'm obsessed! Your build is absolutely breathtaking. You've officially convinced me that I need to build a spoon NSX. Would you be kind enough to direct me where I can buy all of the exterior parts? I found the front and rear bumpers on spoonusa.com but I don't see the roof air scoop. I need that at the very least.

 

[veilsidesfinest]

Damn. Well that sucks. Can anyone help?

The guys at @MITA Motorsports can probably help you here.

Thanks, but @DLockwood just sold me a Genuine Route KS roof air scoop duct and window. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to own something I couldn't buy new from the company that produced it. All thanks the owner of this car sharing his creation with us. How lucky am I that he happened to have a another set of these parts?
