    Thanks for the heads up, on both counts
    Honda NSX NA2 1999
    The only absolute knowledge attainable by man is that life is meaningless without an NSX

    Also one of my all time fav's.

    My immediate neighbour has been building his Stratos kit car for almost 2 years now and is hoping this year it will be on the road.

    I'll ask him if he doesn't mind sharing his build link and if so I will post it up in this thread.

    I would sell the C32 and 6 speed and buy a better engine and box for a swap and have spare for the project car too! So many better options out there - BMW S65 V10, Nissan VQ37VHR, K20, F136, Audi V8 - All much cheaper than a C32 setup etc... NSX engine is lost if its not in its native home. Its heavy and a bit dated but suits the car well.

    But I know there is an S2000, DC2 and a del sol with an NSX engine in!


    Not another NSX project!

    By the way, the thread is in the wrong section.. An NA2 isn't a second generation..
    Member Goldtop was doing the Strada NSX engine build.

    How much is a Lotus Evora with a broken engine?

    I doubt a 90-degree V6 would fit, but it would have more character than the Toyota engine.

    Fake NSX...

    “I find myself irresistibly attracted to cars that nobody else buys. The NSX is a classic of the genre because nobody buys it and yet it’s a fantastic car. It’s got a wonderful compactness and simplicity and unpretentiousness to it. Honda rudely continues to make them whether we like it or not, even though there can be no commercial logic in doing so — I thoroughly admire that.” Rowan Atkinson

    This is probably why Barry hasn't finished his project yet:

    This is why my immediate neighbour spends all his spare time in his garage, he tells me the engine goes in before the end of this month and all being well the body goes on next month.

    It's going to be in green/white and looks stunning 👍👌👏👏
