Mods? Looks lowered + wheels/tires, kit. Specs? Is that it?
Also, year, miles, etc. Just curious
Looks great! But for an "intro", you're lacking details

Thanks for the details!
I know you said you're planning on a rebuild... but how does it drive for 116k miles? Been looking at a few and wasn't sure if I needed to be worried about the higher mileage ones...

it drives great. maintenance wise the only thing ive done so far was put new spark plugs, coilpacks and replaced all 4 o2 sensors. i was worried about the high mileage thing too at first but but the nsxprime members assured me pending the person kept up on the regular maintenance your fine. their very reliable cars. i bought it from a prime member. theres a few members with a lot more miles than me and they have no complaints.

Car looks great, diddy!
Got a question for you and others that have experience with coilovers..I just installed single adjustable coilovers for my Elise, and in adjusting the height after installing, counted all the threads to make sure the fronts were the same, and the rears were the same, before putting the wheels back on. I measure the ride height and each corner is different, and I'm not talking about 1/8", i'm talking about a variation of almost an inch difference. I know that the floor isn't totally even and is part of the culprit, but the difference is pretty drastic, so much that you can see the height difference in how much it's off. Any tips on adjusting ride height without having to put the wheels on and off a million times until you find the right height? Sorry for the

Wow, the NSX looks amazing diddy, always loved the T-top. Your mods really made a night and day difference. It sits just perfect. I've always preferred the facelifted front end but I think I'm really split on it now. The pop-up headlights are just as nice.
