    Hey Simon, Don't worry about the ABS, S-Zero's had that just like all other NSX variants.

    I don't know about the EPS (PAS) but I wouldn't mind betting they just disconnected the system like they did for US Zanardi edition, which was based on the Type-S/Zero, so no weight to be saved there!

    Removing the stereo, amps & speakers would be dead simple and save many pounds.

    The airbag steering wheel is a little fiddly to swap out but and saves lots of weight and using the NSX-R like Momo "Tuner" (or any 350mm wheel) makes a surprising differance to the steering feel

    A/C that's the big and difficult one but Kev's been there and knows how.

    Removing one of the panes from the bulkhead window divide should be relatively easy as well and of course fit the mesh grill (or have nothing) to expose the motor.

    You also need to take off the front fogs, and headlamp washers for the front visuals.

    Fit the NSX-R suspension and... Robert's you mother brother... S-Zero spec

    I did'nt realise its a limited Type S-Zero as seen the drag race with yellow F355 before on Youtube! Great race, it did really well against all the others, god knows why a F50 was there? Si as John McConroe used to say " you cannot be serious" !?!? are you

    You're all forgetting the most important part that really makes it a Type-S Zero.

    The badge.
    So leave everything else, and just stick the badge on. That way it is a Type-S Zero, but with 'optional' airbag, aircon, stereo etc etc.

    If your fear of staying alive, outweighs the thrill of making the corner, brake.
