Just curious how many NSX are 100% stock and of those modded how far have you gone.

Yes
No

I had to vote 'no' but Y1 is pretty damned close.
Alterations from 'bone stock' are:
OEM type R engine cover.
Silver/grey side indicator covers
Dali water reservoir tank.
And that is it.
So pretty close really (and all reversible).
2001 3.2 Circuit Blue Coupe with pop-ups!

It's the Honda NSX."

Stock apart from steering wheel, gear knob, badges and lights!
stock apart from -nothing - its stock
I think the majority of owners will have fiddled with something on this car. I would consider my car almost stock but have done the following
changed to Type R steering
replaced exhaust back box
Removed stereo (original was removed anyway before me)
added mesh engine vents
wheels have been resprayed black ( done before me)
removed aerial, and fog lights
so all in all not too far away from stock, but still i had to vote NO

fiddling wouldn't be so much of an issue if the aftermarket hop-up items weren't so much cheaper than the oem stuff!!!
saying that, i've got...
stainless headers.......................... performance cars should NOT have cast iron manifolds, especially 'all aluminium' ones
17/18 inch 3 piece split-rim wheels.. 15/16 are teeny tiny!
home brew exhaust....................... because i can
aftermarket head unit.................... i haven't got any C90 cassettes
flushed aerial............................... looks so much better
coloured centre console/switch surrounds... oem covering bubbled
smoked side marker indicators......... it's a dark car, orange was just too garish
aluminium race rad........................ straight economics
add......................... braided hoses... forgot those! a set owned by at least 2 other NSX owners, but never fitted!!!!
another add.............. HIDs

'92 charlotte green auto.... as a daily
'37 Ford Y street rod......... something for the weekend!
...... if a photobucket pic is foggy, click it, and it'll take you to the clear version, yes, it's a clicking faff....
Slightly not:-
- Replica Type-R spoiler
- CF & Lexan engine-bay cover
- Braided brake hoses
Am toying with some different exhaust manifolds if I get some spare cash, otherwise not a lot I'd change (maybe the upgraded ABS system?).
"No man with a good car needs to be justified"
Blue '08 FD2 CTR - big, ITR-sized shoes to fill...
Yellow '96 NSX 3.0 - oh was it worth the wait!
Black '99 ITR - well, I had to have another one, the first was so much fun. Miss this one even more than #1...
Blue '03 S2000 - SOLD, flawed but fun
Blue '04 Focus TDCi Sport - SOLD, very good fun for a diesel!
Black '00 ITR - SOLD, still missed
Red '98 Civic VTi - SOLD, probably still bombproof
