Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

Recently, I placed an order to KSP Engineering for their ABS upgrade loom.

Today, I received the message from them that they have shipped the looms out.

I think it will take a while due to the bad weather we had recently but I hope I’ll receive them at the beginning of January.

So, for those who ordered it, it’s on its way now from Japan…

Once again, it's time to say good bye to another NSX for the time being after spending some time at my place for lots of services.

This NSX was using Hankook evo V12 tyre with 15/16 combo and with original ABS.

Compared to the AD08, it was bit scary to drive under freezing cold condition on these tyres and also once again it confirmed the advanatage of having the latest ABS.
The latest one kicked in very quickly and also the response time was much quicker that it controlled the car very well compared ...

For the first time after recent snow, driven my NSX on the snow.

Once again, it confirmed the superiority of the latest ABS.

Before heading out, I tested the car in front of my house where the road is no-through one. There was so much snow that it was so easy to lock the wheels and also felt ...
