v8 nsx

[pittytr]

at www.importdriver.com.au/News1.htm they show the new v8 nsx.
It is a 4.0L V8 making between 400 to 450 hp.

Perhaps. On the shape, Honda plays their cards close to their chest, but the specs for the new machine have been complete for 8-12 months. There are reports of a 3.5L VTEC V-8 with 5 valves producing 400 hp and perhaps a GT version with 4.0L's and 430 hp. Honda sources however, say that only one engine, the 4.0L V-8 producing between 400 and 450HP will be used in an all new and all steel body. The new NSX could be released in the US by mid 2003.

5 Valves per cylinder?

Also...........ALL STEEL??

They are actually going with a 3.5 v6, with around 400hp. I'll know more at the end of may

but will they sell it? isnt it almost impossible to pass a V8 on jap roads cause of the strict engine emission rules?

[Civ_97]

[McChook]

I don't think we will know anything until the thing is actually released

I personally expect a 3.5l V6...
