Nice car mate, but in my opinion i would've stuck to the original one. But if you like it then thats all that matters.

so u think HONDA just design the scoops for no reason LOL . . .please dont comment if u dont know about the car :confused:

The nsx-r hood was made for downforce and cooling of the radiator. Though most of you dont know, is that their is a DUCT coming from the radiator upward to the exit of the vent to make is possible for this to happen. The Nsx-R never had a Spare tire due to this, and weight issues.

so this (radiator etc) is inside the front?

Mr L, why get upset over kids that would love to own a car like yours and find out all the little tricks that the NSX has.

Explain once and if they don't get it they can use google to search for the answers :p

i think those slimline CF race side mirrors would b a nice complement!

Andys
08-04-2005, 03:48 PM
just got my bonnet . . . .

Looks fantastic mate, well done! I reckon black + red goes really well on Hondas, in fact if I had an NSX I would do almost the exact same mods you have done.

Must look even better in real life.

The scoop really isn't a cosmetic feature. It comes standard on the NSX type R in japan.

Looks awesome!

Can't wait for my CF bonnet and boot to come.

and yes its functional but only if your going 100Kmph or above better downforce and also under hardbraking.
its cos there is very little weight in the front of the NSX and this adds downforce at high speeds and hard braking.

SINISTR
08-04-2005, 04:53 PM
very Nice.. :)

will you be keeping the colour black or changing to the factory red for cosmetics?

im a person who likes when things tie in with the rest of the car - and being an NSX and having such a long Header, the Black bonnet just seems a little out of place - on a darker car I guess it would probably suit more.

Apart from that :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Mr N, with all the mods your doing to yours you could of bought a NSX-R :p

When is the DD coming out? And why? :confused:

Hmm - most 0-100 times for the NSX I see quoted are in the range of 5.5-6.5 seconds.

Maybe you are thinking of the NSX-R or a modified NSX.

Tripitaka: NSX together with Toyota's MR2, MGF and many other sport cars are mid-engine cars (Compared with 911's rear engine), which means Engine is positioned behind the cabin but in front of rear wheel axel. The above mentioned 3 mid-enginers managed to make rooms behind engine for luggage. I think its due to these 3 have longer rear overhang.

AKA-NSX: I reckon Black hood goes well with red. The Roof and A,C pillars are black anyway, so black and red combo isn't bad at all.
Lindsey Fox's Red Enzo has yellow roof on it. (same colour combo as his trucks)

Hey Peet,

yes S-Tai front bumper and the Ritmo Letcher sideskirt, to match it my GT500 wing and make it looks like the Super Taikyu NSX . . .

why ur not changing the new style front light,looks very nice!!

to change it to 02 looks is not that hard but we always think our red is not good for 02 looks unless if we change the colour as well, then if we change colour i dont think we can sell / trade the car to Honda dealer after that . . . .

SSs r u the one that interested on buying my friend X the blue one w/ 02 conversion? sorry if i'm wrong
