how do u convert ps to hp?

They are nearly identical.

PS is German for HP, "pferdestarke"

1 ps = 0.98632 hp

oh come on. This could possibly be very true, but will Honda really go with the turbo? They can easily make a 350-400 HP V6. Now, torque may be where they want to improve, so the V8 would do well here. a high-revving 4.0L V8 can get up to 500 HP if done right. Look at what Honda did to a 3.0L V6 back in 1990, 276 HP. That was pretty damn good for the early 90's and a maker that didn't produce their own V6 until very late (was that their first?) If they want to Turbocharge, I guess its because they know better than us. But the beauty of a Honda engine is its High-Revving, tons of HP: Displacement factor. Just my opinion. Here are some thumbnails of the improved HSC (hopefully resemble something real, because these are damn hot)..



I hope to see these specs from the new NSX-R...

-480 HP/ 420 Lb./ft. Tq. 4.0L V8
- curb weight; 1,750 lbs.
- weight distribution of 49-51
- the best 6MT ever made!
- 0-60 in 4 seconds

I do hope the NSX can beat anything else on the straight-away, but they MUST (and of course, will) keep in mind what it can do on the track. This thing can beat V8 supercars and barely lose to v10s and v12s. I love the NSX-R, but it does need a change. As Top Gear said, they took an incredible car and made it into "an engineer's play thing."

hmm, red x's, huh? maybe this will work. otherwise, the new hsc pictures are on the club rsx site. imo they improved little things here and there that make the car look great .
