Looks like my thread got "nuked", I put the individual items that were new or off the car in the Classifieds section for everyone to take a peek at whenever they happen to show up.

For all of those who PM'd me for parts and were listed as having dibs, I remember who you are so no worries, as soon as the parts come off the car I'll contact you to find out if you're still interested before following up with the next person down the list and if there isn't anyone who is interested I'll put the part up in the classifieds section.

I didn't list prices on the thread given that I did not want to be flooded with PM's and wanted to give priority to the NSX owners that I know and have interacted with in the past. (The main reason why I posted the post in the Northwest Region) I guess someone got ticked off or something like that, go figure :rolleyes:... (As I've said in the past idiots come in all shape and forms.. hehe..;))

I've always followed up with a first come first served policy from day 1 since selling parts on NSXPrime, if you don't like that then you don't have to buy the parts from me and go somewhere else instead. :D

To the good guys here at NSXPrime :thumbsup: to the idiots :MFTTS: and get a life!!!! :p

P.S. I'm returning the car back to stock, parting out the aftermarket/performance goodies

Would like to share us what would be your next car? :biggrin:
BTW: Your PM mailbox is full... ;)

Moving to CO, roads suck, only 1 track in the entire state, already picked up a 987S with PASM (really helps with crappy roads) and more than likely picking up a fun 4WD (not an Evo or Sti) car to drive as a daily driver.

Actually, there's an assload of tracks there. Then a new track replacement in the works for the one south of denver. Then there's also whispers of a replacement for PPIR down in the springs. Overall, I think there is atleast 4 tracks within 2 hours maybe 3 hours away. Prices were roughly $45 half day, $75 full day.

Oh and you won't need a AWD car, the snow doesn't last long and only a few days for the year. I just moved back from colorado springs and my daily driver was a 2wd Ford ranger. Only needed to chain up 4 times in 4 years to climb some steep roads home.

What parts are left??? Sucks they deleted that thread...

So are you selling your car too? If not, I'd go FI for colorado... you're gonna be hatin' the missed power.

Yeah, the roads aren't in THAT great of shape it's true.

Tx's for the links :)

But your information is a bit outdated, maybe you have not been hitting the tracks lately ;)

Second Creek which was near DIA was closed down. (who knows when the replacement will open)

PPIR was bought and pretty much shut down (who knows when the replacement will open)

The one right off I-25 (Mead) was bought by the Shelby Club up in Boulder and they don't have that many track days, if any (mostly road biking days these days from what I hear).

La Junta is flat, does not count as a proper road course. (too spoiled by road courses here on the left coast, hope you get to hit some while you are here)

The testing ground for the CO State Patrol does not count either. (Evo and WRX folks go there now and then)

From what I understand Pueblo is the *only* major facility that remains open that has a road course with FIA compliant run off areas and track widths in the entire state.

Miller in Salt Lake City UT, is 6 hours away from Fort Collins and is the only *Major* facility with a road course worthwhile hitting.

I've been going to Fort Collins for the past 12 years, so I've met people who have been into motorsports, talked to several guys who used to race SCCA out there, one common complaint was the housing developers pushing for the closure of tracks (just like other locations in the US) :mad:

BTW: The particular car that I'm looking at is a fun car to drive, has a larger engine and happens to have 4WD too ;)

P.S. A 4WD car on the snow/ice drifts whole of a lot more predictable than a FWD/RWD car ever will :D (very useful when you go up/down the mountains in the winter ;), or go ice racing :cool:)
 
Slippery Slope...

In the beginning... :p

Why's that? The thread should have been in the parts for sale section from the get go. Look there if you need parts.
 
Yeah, they did shut down 2ndcreek and PPIR. Didn't know that about Mead though. I'm guessing for your AWD replacement, it's the new RS4???? Guess I'll wait and see. Invest in a dirtbike. :)
