Really nice work. Pictures are great. Everything has been done well.

There is a guy who lives in the same complex as my g/f who has an NSX like yours. His mods look like total shit. It is an embarrassing car to look at.

Yours is fucking sweet.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Very nice and well built car. Your car was my inspiration to get the Advan RS's.

All time favorite NSX...Anytime someone around me mentions a NSX, I google your name and show them the nicest NSX I've seen online. Great build thread, now I have all the pics in one

Quick update and a few pics from the track. This was my first experience, but I learned a few things-

1. People seemed to like my car.
2. I'm a pretty shitty track driver.

I taught my friend how to use my camera and put the settings on a semi-auto mode. I did some post production/processing to get these pics to pop.

seeing his nsx makes me step my game up so much more. this nsx in my opinion is one of the benchmarks in the nsx community along with 2 or 3 that i know of.

Wow, just looked through that whole first page, you have made amazing progress!

Your car is truly beautiful, I love the orange too. All those wheels look great but I do love those TE's in that finish

Keep up the great work

Also may I ask what photo equipment you used when doing the magazine shoots since you did those yourself

Damn you
