Last pic of the season, put the car away for good until spring last weekend. More changes in store next year, of course will update then. Hibernation time for both myself and the car..



Everyone's ****'s lookin tight as always. +1 on more pics of the infamous "rc" NSX haha.. looks so good. I think its the huge tile slabs and the angle that make it look weird.

whoa, the nsx is for sure a car and not an rc. we just never had the time to take some nice pictures.





His specs are 18x8.5 +22 (2.5" lip) 19x10 +17 (3.5" lip). Those were the specs he was told that would make the nsx flush. Once he got the wheels and tried them on, he wasnt satisfied. He came over my house and we test fitted my front DPE's (19x10 +4) on his rear and that was perfect!.



So we put a 15mm spacer in the rear and a 10mm in the front. After all that final specs became 18x8.5 +12 19x10 +2. Trial and error. He is now selling these wheels with tires and is gonna be picking up a much more aggressive set.

maybe i'm dumb, but i think that nsx looks silly with those wheels. some split-spoke 18's all round would look much better imo.

He places stickers in the same spots you do, its crazy. He has the "Proper shop" decal where you had zero clearance. He seriously does everything you do, must be so annoying.

Do you know this kid? He's apparently in Texas too.
Yup that is him

Look at the new wheels he has now,, do they remind you of any of my old wheels

Haha, they are just like the drift spares. Theres one thing to have similar taste, its another to wait and see what you do, and do the exact same thing.

Hey guys, I need to buy a set of coilovers in order to fit my wheels and slam the car.... I know many of you are running stance GR+. However, the 5k rear spring rate just isn't good enough for me. I'm used to 14k/14k on my FD and I'd like something super stiff on the Z too while still being able to go low. I also want true coilovers. So what are my options ?

I hope you guys have some suggestions

PM Royal_T about the Zero Clearance Coilovers by AST Suspension. I wish I had enough money to buy them.

What did you FD look like? Aggressive fitment at all?
