My car was standard 1991 with 17" rims. Now it has a Sorcery wide body with a GT35r turbo kit on a fully built motor. Soon to be tuned. 18" front and 19" rears. It is an Auto with a 4000rpm stall converter. With the motor only on low boost 7psi it ran a 12.2@116mph down the quarter mile with the standard converter. The new converter is AWESOME. I have full boost off the line. Very very responsive now.

What do you guys think of the color ? custom Kandy blue.

Welcome, start another thread for your car with more pictures and specs. Interested in rear wheel width etc. That color is pretty nice in person. I've shot it once on a customers car.

Man that's nice Ko... I am not in love with the random CF ashtray cover and glove box... they look a little lonely... it either needs more CF or none... but it's not bad. The rest is just awesome.

All i plan to CF next is the knee bolster, the door handle and the nav pod. Not trying to have TOOO much. I Really need an interior color change and LOTS of alcantera!!!
 
On a scale of 1-10 what would you give to the fit of the widebody kit? Is it reversible?

Yes the kit is reversible, except im not sure it you could go back to pop up headlights. After the work done by the bodyshop, it is very close to stock. i'd or anyone that has seen it will say it is at least a 9, as far as kits go. The bodyshop said the kit bolted right up, it was the finish that needed tweeking.

Been thinking about taking the NSX-R wing off though. I prefer to keep the car looking as simple as possible. The R wings are weird though: doesn't look so good in pics sometimes but, in person, looks awesome.
 
I love seeing old beat up NSX's get revived...

The front paint damage was something I did - an off-road excursion during a HPDE event. That said, the rest of the car was not in ideal shape when I bought it. The ivory seats were in awful condition as well as the rest of the interior. When I decided to redo the interior I actually found unfired bulletts on the floorboard and there were bugs living in it. However, the car was solid mechanically and I fell in love w/ it instantly (well after the PPI).

Now, the car is exponentially better in every way. Woot!
 
This is how my car looked when I bought it in 2005…

Do you have any shots showing the engine bay through the class and with the decklid open? Interested to see how you accented, this shot is just a teaser. :)
 
I need to take some better photos of the engine bay... But here's 3 pics that I found... People are really impressed with seeing the engine under the glass...

i like the last 2 of the before pics. Better then the now pics you have. Even tho the car got modded a bit something is missing.

You mean the girl? :wink:
 
Before: Marga Hills body kit, gold BBS LM Wheels

After: changed to 18/19 TSWs

and then after again: Bowed to peer pressure and got rid of the big wing, went with a factory clean look, supercharged the whole motor and swaped out a carbon fiber interior.

B-4 when i bought the car. Even has the transformer sticker on the outside sash piece lol. Taken in FL.
Few months after Its in NY with some toys on her. But no transformer sticker. Thats why i changed the car due to the sticker. lol. hated that thing on the car. I didnt want to take it off because i thought there was a scratch under it or something but after i put my carbon fiber pieces on i peeled the stickers off and what do you know. its clean.
