NSX and S2000 chasis rigidity

[chan]

hi,

i had sit in my friend's NSX for a few time a few years back and amazed how rigid the chasis is. i know the car uses the best material. beside the material does a standard 93' NSX has any braces installed. how rigid is a S2000 compare to a NSX?

Dunno, let me go for a test drive in your friends NSX and il tell you the difference.

i used to have s2000 before i reckon NSX still better to drive . . .
its only braces / tower bar installed on NSX is in the engine bay
please see pic:




but the NSX-R come with the front and top chassis reinforcement bar . . . . please see attachment . . . .

Its a ~1300kg fairly small car that is made of aluminium. Yes, its a super-stiff chassis

it's not small but it's light in its size.

It's also a fully roofed car which is where a lot of the stiffness advantage over the S2K comes from.
