I already have a rear camber kit for my upper control arm. I just picked up a rear camber kit for my lower control arm to get the rears perfectly flush.

the last piece of my interior is complete finally. its 100% mint now.

Damm son! Wish you could make it to NSXPO in Arizona!

Yea that definitely would have been nice. I’m going to make it to NSXPO one of these years.

after 2 years I was ready to get rid of the gold finish on my work vs-xx. ive always liked the brushed look on the bbs lm's. so I got the gold striped and the brushed look machined on my faces clear coated over. don't mind my front lip I hit a tire on highway recently. I haven't dropped it off to get fixed yet.

I liked the gold

Both look great, but I've long been a fan of BBS (and similar styles)
The brushed look suits it well.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

thanks.

I did too but after that exact setup on my last car (my CL type-s) and having it for 2 years on this car I was ready for a change.


yea ive always been a fan of the bbs brushed look. im really glad at the outcome after doing it. the classic red on silver always looks good.

it was hot then, it was hot now

The new finish looks great. I love a good brushed wheel finish.

That said I loved the gold on red. It is always a classic look. I understand getting tired of a wheel color though.

made some changes to the rear of my car. I had the 02 rear valance and swapped to the downforce rear gt diffuser. since my rear exhaust is exposed now I had my fabricator modify it to center exit. I think it looks more aggressive now


before with the stock 02 valance

after with gt diffuser and exposed exhaust



after with exhaust modified to center exit. in person you can really see the exhaust details under the car a lot. I love it.

Can't say I love it in the pictures. Might have a different feel in person. I would have left them in the old location. I do love everything else you've done to this though. Looks great!

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

you can see more of the details in person. I definitely don't like how it used to be with it so open and exposed now.

I went and got a retune. I was originally tuned at 344whp but I changed to a bigger fuel pump and got rid the high flow cats for resonated test pipes. with the new tune im at 411whp now.

I've been quiet for a while but this NSX build seems like it always pulls me back in when I think im done. I got a paint job a few years ago when I got my wide body and I've hated the paint job ever since I got it. it was one of those situations were you get a very good deal and it ends up being what you paid for. So I went out all and got the car stripped to bare metal to get every last bit of that crappy job off my car. I'm hoping my paint is done in time next month for NSXPO being held in Atlanta next. im keeping my fingers crossed. while I've been waiting all these months an itch for a new daily was eating at me and on a whim last weekend I picked up a 2021 TLX A-Spec. I love this car so far. i just ordered wheels for it and working on getting the OEM brembo's off the type-s model. here's a link for it in there TLX section on my build, stance acquired v3.0:

Damn man. Sorry you have to redo you paint job like that. I bet it will look fantastic though after it is done.

Wish I was able to get to Expo this year with it being so close but have other engagements to attend that weekend. Should be a good time down there though.

It’s money wasted but you live and you learn and now I’ll have a really top notch paint job now. I’m crossing my fingers to get to NSXPO. I’m from Atlanta so I really want to go and be never been to one. I’m sure it’ll be really next year when they pick a different city.

CCColtsicehockey

Hope you get to go. That would be cool to go home and also get to go to NSXPO at the same time.

Next year will be back in the center of the country. I know they have narrowed it down but nothing chosen just yet. I doubt it will be somewhere I will be willing to road trip to though.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

Don’t mind my typos in my last reply lol. I was multitasking at the time lol. But yea I just got stationed in DC so I’m sure I won’t be willing to travel to the location next year.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

I think I may actually make NSXPO this year. my new legit paint job is almost done.

CCColtsicehockey

Going to need lots of painters tape for that drive with fresh paint only a few weeks prior.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

It’s getting shipped from Cali to Atlanta so I’ll be good in that aspect. But I’m stationed in D.C. now so it’ll have a lot of painters tape on it to drive it home.

CCColtsicehockey

Oh dang didn't realize the car was still in Cali. Was it already there or did you ship it out there for the paint job?

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

I was stationed in San Diego so I used my paint shop there, then I got stationed in D.C. a few weeks ago so I had to leave my car until it was done.

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

That's working out perfectly.
Paint shop is a one man shop that takes his time, huh?
Impressive as hell.
Never realzied how modular the NSX was, reminds me of my Corvette.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

Nah it’s not a one man shop. What really took so long was that he took the entire car down to bare metal and wanted to fix things from the last paint job that was bad. Better fitment with the panels lining up etc. So I tried not to rush so that it was done perfectly unlike the last shop.

Yea most people don’t realize you can disassemble an NSX down to the chassis like that. That made it so much easier when I went widebody. So cutting involved.

1StGenCL

Whoa, that shop is really getting after it, can't wait to see it done.

Also, the first couple pics on the pavers make it look like it's in the UK or something.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

they're great!. its in the Temecula area of California.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

after a very long wait I finally got my car back just in time for NSXPO. im absolutely loving this paint job. pics don't do it justice.

asianspec

iTrader: (1)

which shop is it? Temecula isn't far from me.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

its actually in Menifee, ca, it used to be in Temecula. im so used to saying Temecula. Menifee is like 15 mins away from Temecula. its called exclusive autobody and customs.

Looks great in just those pics, can't wait until you properly serenade her.

CCColtsicehockey

Car looks sick man. Glad you were able to get it back in time and head to NSXPO? How was it?

neuronbob

I can’t believe I finally got to see this godly NSX in person at NSXPO a few weeks ago, and to meet the man, the myth, the legend, in person. What an awesome car.

asianspec

iTrader: (1)

oh nice. just down the 215. ill check it out when im in the area. Wish you were here with the car. we couldve done a nice photoshoot with it.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

Thanks a lot. It just barely made it in time. It got delivered a day before it started. Here’s a YouTube vid recap of the event. 108 NSX’s showed up. It was a fun 4 days.


It was great meeting you after all these years talking online.

I retire from the navy in 3 years. I might come back to Cali who knows lol.
