Just avoid the 91-93, they have tranny problems.

I searched for NSX's before purchasing the Z. (I also looked at Supra's, RX-7's, RX-8's and S2000's for that matter.) I found a few that were around $20k+. They seemed to be in good condition too. All of them were the 91-93's, and I remember when Sport Compact Car did a review on NSX's and had mentioned electrical problems with the earlier years. This obviously hindered my lliking to them. They are dead sexy cars though. There is no denying that.

all im saying is i seen nsxs run lap times at pocono that TT Zs could not touch. Im sorry man its not all about power. Why does a lotus exige own us at almost ever track its not about power. THe Z is def capable but it does take alot for it in my view to beat a NSX type R especially with more then enough laps 20+ a good duration. Take for instance a time attack even. Do u think that the amuze Z can take the NSXR in a time attack???? The Z def can be modded to do so but....dont get your hopes up on just pwer alone. THe chassis is good on the Z but its brakes tire setup gearing weight weight weight weight weight and weight are gonna keep it from ever touching a nsx without heavy modding.


And to the comment above , the nsx type rs vtech map gives a pull almost with the feel of a higher displacement engine. Im not a fan of vtech but i been in a nsx there special simply because there rare and there the ledgendary japanese super car how many hold lap times for a japanse car like the nsx type R.

uh, you do realize that the Viper will out perform the C6 Z06 on a racetrack right? The Viper will with out a doubt burn any nsx on a track. No questions about it. Now wait for the 08s with 600 hp.

BTW why are we arguing about the NSX? Any idiot knows an RSX with I/H/E and K-pro will stop an nsx to pieces.

You're the type of consumers that SRT-4 are catored to. straight line performance is the ultimate gauge. Other packages like suspension design, weight, chassis design doesnt mean anything.

Track performance test the car total package. ( aside from interior mods)

Almost funny... Almost.

Your still missing the fact that NSX with more power = better performance straightline and otherwise... what I said is still a valid statement.

A viper will outperform corvette? maybey in brut power, but Im sure you and whatever viper fans have said the same thing since the 2001 le man races. Wait where was the viper in the current GT1 series. Dont knock corvette. They embarass alot of vipers in alot of races.

A C6 Z06 takes out a viper with a big bang. Go check the Ring times please.

Exactly. Check your stats. The C6 Z06 are stock for stock consistently beating the Viper.

BTW, you guys are all comparing a 16 year old car to the newest performance machines, and it's still comparing favorably. That, and the fact that there are only a little more than 8,000 ever imported = NSX FTW

Haha, that's a pretty funny comment. Sorta like saying your comparing a 50+ yr old vette to a 16 yr old NSX.....

Last I checked they built the NSX till 2005. An 05 C6 compares very favorably to the 90K dollar NSX (about 2x the price). And it actually beats it in many tests.

The above link also seems wrong, as the C6 has done a 7.59 time around the ring......

Again keep in mind we are talking about a non Z06 C6. Once you step up and put the ultimate 2005 NSX-R vs the 2006 C6Z06, again the vette is much cheaper and blows away the NSX-R in all performance.

The NSX is a very cool car, and at it's introduction was very special. But no getting around Honda's moronic evolution of the car. It's amazing a company that prides itself on building great hp per liter motors, couldn't figure out a way to build a terrific V8-V10 motor and shoehorn it into it's Halo car. The NSX could've been so much more if they ditched the anemic V6 during it's 15-16 year run.

If you have a C6 with a Z51 package you should handle the same as a C6 Z06. Any pics? lol

the NSX was pretty much untouched during its 15year run except for an increased displacement. so the 2005 is still using 1990's technology. and one major reason the car is powered the way it is because Japan had a 280ps limit for production cars till only a few years ago. I wonder where Chevy and all other car manufacturers got the idea to use titanium rods, all aluminum suspension, and aluminum body and chassis from? the NSX is a major icon so changes were minor to keep it true to its nature, which spawns from f1 not nascar.

if they ever use a v8 or v10, rest assured that it will be in a completely different car. you just don't go throwing in a larger heavier and more powerful engine into a car and call it a day. that train of thought seems to work over here, but thats just not how they work over there. putting in a bigger heavier engine will throw the car's suspension, weight distribution, handling, braking, and gearing off... it will pretty much change the entire car. Ayrton Sena has passed away so who will re-tune the suspension?

have you seen the NSX production plant and the credentials of their employees? compare that to the Corvette plant and the kind of employees they have building the car. not being a Jap ***** or anything but Japanese quality and attention to detail(especially Honda) is miles ahead of our domestic manufacturers... how many 1991 Vette's do you still see driving around? if you do see one, what condition is it in and what has been replaced/rebuilt on its drivetrain? i don't think most people know the history, r&d, and technological breakthroughs of the NSX to appreciate it.

VelocityC6

Not possible. The C6 Z06 is lighter, has stiffer springs/shocks/sways and much larger tires (325 vs 285 on the rear). It's a harsher ride but the handling is better then a C6 w/Z51
