Car looks faptastic!
lol - x2
Looks very nice. So what is the next step, and how long are these changes going to last?:biggrin:
I LOVE your wheels. Black BBS' are just the sexiest wheels ever.
The car is done, I just need to clean up a few things, refit some parts, repaint other parts, and mess with the interior a bit.
Exterior and performance modifications are finished, I am very happy with how the car drives and looks right now.
Thank you for the kind words.
I was wondering the same thing, John. Roll protection for short people, looks like. How do they mount?
John- I'm surprised you didn't go widebody yet, or time for a completely new project.
You mention a new camera. What is the camera? Another Sony?
It's the Mugen roll bar:
I don't really care for the widebody look on the nsx
Camera setup is a Sony A300, Tamron 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 IF
Your car looks fantastic!

.... but sommmmeeeeedayyyyyyJohn where did you get this Mugen roll bar? Is this more a show piece or a genuine bar I can use at track events with a harness? I was always told that you need more connection points than what seems to be shown on this item or the bar may collapse and actually cause MORE injury. Do you have any idea? I am ssuming you did it for looks. Is this avialable in the states or did you import this? Thanks for the info.
Your investment in time and money and decision making with you car ended in a very nice result. Congrats! A street-legal Super GT NSX with flair. Your car is now ready for Laguna Seca and some photo ops as you negotiate the corkscrew.
It's ready for a high speed attempt on an El Toro runway :biggrin:
The bar connects to six hard points on the chassis, it's thick chromoly, which is stronger than steel, and has guides for the harness belts which put them into the correct orientation, to avoid injury.
The bar is a pain to install, as mugen have made it slightly oversize, in order to stiffen the chassis; once it's in, its a very safe addition to the car, which isn't going anywhere. I no longer run factory belts, I use schroth ACM autocontrol harnesses installed on this bar (looped around the top support) - I would not install a safety component for looks.
This part is pretty rare, and was discontinued by Mugen, along with most of their nsx parts, several years ago; it took about a year to find this one, which I had imported from Japan.
Looks very nice.
What type of mirror is that? (windshield mirror, not side mirrors). it sort of looks like the odd-shaped piece from an F-50, but it's hard to tell with it partially obscured.
