My boy Alex swung by and did a quick photoshoot for the NSX… super stoked with the shots. Hard to tell in the photos but a thunder/wind storm was blowing through when we took these… ultimately had to quit early cause of rain.
Im real happy with the NSX and am taking a break from this car/racing thing for a while… time to focus on family & kids!
who knows, maybe I’ll get back into it one of these days. Keep it on the shiny side, see ya later!
Went to the track this weekend… even though a full-on hangover was looming from the night before, I had a blast driving the NSX. Im getting more confident with it but there is more to learn… more speed to be had…
Everything went about as smooth as a first shake down day could go. No issues except for the slack on the sub belt (crotch strap) interfering with my feet & pedals during a run.
Im very impressed with cars handling & power delivery… I see great potential in getting faster with this car, I left the track yesterday with lots of confidence.
& here is a incar video of a quick run… the Nittos are impressive!
Finally had time to get some stuff done to the car…. 18″ black anodized CCW c14’s… nitto NT01 rubber for now… Procar NSX-R cf wing…
Upgraded interior with recaro bucket seats, Harness bar system, schroth harnesses, sparco steering wheel, a HKS camp2 display system.. up next is Brembo’s front & rear, just waiting on one more rotor to show up.. then its track testing time… here are some quick pics i took.
Ok, day one of tuning the NSX on low boost is done and Im super happy with everything so far.
Jon Kuroyama, head of R&D at HKS flew out to tune the car… needless to say, he knows his stuff. How many tuners have you seen tune a car non-stop (didnt even turn off motor) for 3-4 hours straight… adn using head phones to amplify knock sounds… The HKS Fcon Vpro will be completely set up once he go over it again tomorrow on hi-boost.
No problems what so ever with the car on the dyno, ran flawlessly….
Day 2 We ran off wastegate alone, spring only held 14psi and then tapered off to 11psi… Still managed to put down 470whp on a low reading mustang Dyno… On the street car feels like a solid 520 car… Spins tires in 3rd gear… Full boost at 4200rpms.. So I’m super happy with the setup, incredibly responsive & alot of fun to drive!!
the stmpo NSX turbo Y pipe & custom twin scroll gt35r garrett turbo….
Here are some pics of how the car sits… side skirts, front lip missing & it still on lift.. so it will look a lil bit more aggressive than this when done… but this gives u a good idea of how the car looks….
Dana at virtual works is finishing up some of the final stuff for the car… once that is done its time to break in the motor… off boost.. ugh…
