and vise versa :P

but like i said to the other dude..

the gtr when it raced against production cars, won every single time

and thus killed production car racing

the nsx didnt win a single race

Honda's philosophy since the early 80's was that they will never use turbo charging in their road cars, because back then turbo charged cars were unreliable. I wonder if this philosophy of theirs is going to come back and bite them.

I doubt it. Compared to its Japanese brethren, it differentiates them.

Most of the fast Euro supercars are NA (Enzo, Carrera GT, Zonda, etc) and they're still quick. The Nurburgring "production car" (and I use the term very loosely) record holder is a NA track day special.

It works for them. I'm more disappointed with the new NSX's front/mid engined AWDness than its lack of turbos.

They say that racing improves the breed but one thing i could never understand about Honda was that they spent so much time and money on Development on Turbos for F1 but didnt touch it with a 10 ft pole for the road cars......very odd

Not true. The R34 N1 will destroy the NSX in the quarter. It makes something like 420Hp stock from the factory. And i haven't even mentioned the Z-tune R34 yet (which is stock from the factory as well).

Yes the S2000 and the NSX is RWD, but they are not in production anymore. I am talking about current production Honda's.

you fail the n1 did not have 420hp from stock

the z-tune is a limited edition made by nismo, comparing two different cars there

again the video i posted was purely to make a point.

Wtf? Double fail on the S2000!

The S2000 is still in production.

The Ztune R34 is NOT STOCK. Its a heavily modified factory special. "Stock" is a car that was built to original factory specs on the original platform and like Michael said, stock for stock the NSX has the GTR covered.

GTR is not God, my friend.

Im not talking about when the cars are modified and that has never been my point.

Oh and your double post on not knowing about the S2000 calls for a hot steamy little serving of

Oh and the N1, forget it - Sif that's even relevant in this discussion...and the Z-tune even less so.

Courtesy of teh Wiki:

"Only 45 R34 N1 models were produced from the factory, 12 of which were used by Nismo for Super Taikyu racing. The rest were sold to various customers, mostly racing teams, and tuning garages."

Yes, yes Honda realised their beautiful NSX was a total commercial flop and to make the new one practical have freed up cabin space by front/mid-mounting the motor and giving it plenty of grip with AWD, to cater for wealthy buyers that curl into a ball and cry when the tyres chirp.

Honda tried to be exotic and stand out with the old NSX, but they've given up. Nissan have never hidden the GTR was an all-rounder. They only hid its performance figures :D

The new NSX smacks of dirty, dirty daily driver to me :D

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
