After some spirited driving this weekend, I've come to the conclusion that my NSX is a handful to drive at speed.
The car....93 with approx. 35K miles and bone stock with the exception of OZ Superleggeras 17/18 combo and Goodyear GSD3s.
First problem, dips really upset the car. Compression is alittle weak, but rebound is really light. Front end wouldn't float exactly, but it traveled way too high up the suspension travel for my tastes. Plus when it did this, the steering response had a very elastic feel (no other way I can describe it)
I'm wondering that despite the low miles, the years have taken their toll on the stock shocks. Thoughts?
Any ideas on what's causing the weird steering response? Could it be the compliance gizmos? If so, how is the ride, steering effected if they are removed?
Second problem, long sweepers and quick transitions will overwhelm the sways and I feel like the car is maxed out on the stops way too early. Wondering if this is a combination of stock sways and worn out shocks?
I'd like a good setup for the street that can be driven at a moderate pace with total confidence. Not interested in droping the ride height as this is a daily driver and I need some clearance.
Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.
