Dream ` R you played GT3?

Type R is slightly heavier using a 3L engine

and the Type S-Zero is lighter using a 2.8L engine pulling a little less than the type-R.. think ;)

someone correct me :D

the type r is the best nsx in terms of race potential if that is what you mean. For me its not the 'best' because all comforts have been removed, like air con and the radio for example. Best is subject to one's opinion and what the car will be used for.

you alsoneed to define which nsx-r, since they have been around since '92 or so. early ones came in 3.0 litre and newer ones with 3.2litre. The nsx-r is the lighest nsx, the type-s is heavier. The type r along with the deleted creature comforts also has many carbon fibre parts, the type s does not.

All nsx's have had either 3.0litre engine or the 3.2litre engine.


Please dont judge cars by video games only! Dont take all info as gospel!Games are quickly becoming the new "i read in such and such magazine that such and such car has this much horsepower and this much weight. In reality many things affect cars, such as driver weather, conditions etc.

I 've heard many times the "i played it on gran turismo with these upgrades and beat this type of car so its the best." arguments.

These formats are good indications of a cars potential but there is more to it than that. :)

I hope this helps

From the site, it pretty much says:

Type-R: Almost tuned for the tracks, yet still driveable on the street
Type-S: A refined Type-R, but more sporty and luxury (less hardcore, but better then standard?).
Type-S Zero: Pretty much in between Type-S and Type-R.
