nice pickup! the targas do look cool but I think they are supposed to be heavier than the normal hardtops due to extra bracing, and in the end aren't as stiff.

I might be late on this, do you have a BM part out thread? I PM'd about your BBK but think I am still going the NSX caliper route. More interested in your TL lip if not spoken for already.

Good luck with the NSX-T =)

 

Always wanted to do a custom targa top on a car it did not belong on.

 

the targa version weighs about 100lbs more. i havent started a bm thread yet. i just told people is was easier to pm me.


do it to your CL lol. jk!

 

Wrong type of door frame.
If it had windows to the top It would've been a option before.
Now no.
After drivetrain is working right I will get back to making it look nice some how.

 

their picking up the car tomorrow. this wait is killing me.

 

So your bringing the new car to Orlando right?

 

Of course I'll be hitting Orlando up. We got to get another Acura meet soon down there.

 

Diddy I really like what you did to your cl. I'm currently 19 years old and going to UTI.I was reading your specs and I dont know too much about stances so heres my question, how would I go about to get a similiar stance with 18rims and a nice offset? If u can break it down for dummies. Thank you for your time hope to hear back from you

 

Best to go coil overs instead of lowering springs , rolled sometimes pulled fenders .
Wide wheels 9-10.5inches with low offsets +30 +20 etc.
Most of the time slighty or extreme stretched tires , depending on the person

 

would a camber kit allow you to get a lower offset?

 

ill pm you.

 

congrats on the purchase man. looks like its in great shape

 

18-20lbs. my vs-xx were in that range.

thanks. yea the previous owner took excellent care of the car.

 

Was it delivered yet???

 

not yet. they picked the car up on saturday. it should be delivered somewhere between sat and monday. im already getting parts for it. i found a set of headers and exhaust in the black market over on the nsx forum that im on. im crossing my fingers the guy still has the exhaust i sent him a pm this morning.

 

Where is it coming from? Is it covered transport?

 

Pasadena, CA and yes.

 

I had a car shipped to me from Kansas City, it got here overnight But it wasnt covered transport.

 

thats not bad at all.

 

how much is shipping costing you if you don't mind me asking.

 

it was $700 uncovered $1000 covered.

 

Didn't they do a special paint process on the NSX's because of the aluminum body?

 

i have no idea.

 

back to stock it goes. swapping out parts.

Wow... Lol. Any pics of the NSX yet?

 

Noooooooo

 

Wait why are you going back to stock? Your car is clean!!! Are you going to have a part out thread?

 

grats on the nsx

 

Smh..

 

i should be getting it today so ill post pics today.

lol.

going back to stock to fund the nsx build. unlike the CL it has big aftermarket support. everything is expensive for this car. the CL is going to be my daily so it wont be seeing shows and i wont be riding out with my friends with it anymore. trust me its hard seeing it like this. it was my first build so this car is kind of special to me. ive sold off a bunch of stuff. whatever you see in my sig is all i have left on the car. i have a long list of stuff planned for the NSX it will surpass my CL build.

thanks.

thats the reaction everyone i know had when they found out its going back to stock.

 

 

I felt like that yesterday.

 

Anything on th gauge pod?

 

I have to check with this other person first. If not then its yours. Future reference keep all part talk to pm.

 

I agree with you 100%. Congratulations on the new car purchase. I'm sure it will be a nice new build. I'll keep a eye out for it.

 

thanks. im excited about this new build.

Omg I've never been in love with a car like this. It's too dark so I'll post pics tomorrow. It ended up being uncovered transport. They fucked up my order. But what I owed the driver reflected that. So I'm good. Funny thing though the truck driver said from Cali to FL about 20 people asked him along the way if the car was for sale.

 

Your new car is gonna catch peoples eyes stock, after you are done imagine what it will be doing

PS, I may be interested in some of your CL parts .

 

your right about that. i was on the highway this morning and of nowhere a v12 benz pulls up next to me wanting to run. got my ass handed to me which i knew was going to happen but it was fun. gave each other the thumbs up after and both went on our way.

 

So with their fuckup, how much did shipping end up costing you?

 

in for pics :P

no pics no nsx no care
