Hi folks

Wanted to get a few decent photos of my new motor done, before posting in order to do it justice. Some of you have already seen the car or read about it elsewhere, but here goes! :grinning:

For those interested it is an NA1, 3.0l V6 JDM spec manual coupe. The car is pretty much standard apart from exhaust back box being changed, uprated stereo system installed, steering boss and wheel (Type R) fitted and a few other wee bits. Will not be tinkering too much with the car, will do what I can, but modifications to this car is EXTREMELY expensive. :broken_heart:

Thanks to my mate Darren Borland for taking the time out one saturday morning and take a few photos for me. Very pleased with his work, and believe he has done the car proud. (y)

Really enjoying my time with the car, they are an AMAZING machine. Well ahead of its time, and in my humble opinion is a TIMELESS classic and the BEST car Honda has built.

The car has yet to receive a proper detail/paint work correction, which will be done in due course, but with a 16 year old car there are other things to sort out. :eek:

i was parked down street of you mate a few weeks ago in bangor while @ the atm... i returned to the s2000 and i fear i may have squealed like a little girl at the excitement.


definitely a car on my list of must haves... especially in yellow

Nice looking motor, was behind me coming out of moira the other night. Doesn't seem shy of the go faster pedal. The exhaust note is very much love or hate, its not what i expected a nsx to sound like tbh.

See i was shy of the pedal, i was behind you surely! ;)

you heard it whilst on the kwak?

its not that loud surely ... btw what should an NSX sound like in your opinion?

me personally i have no idea, but i do like the current note. Trust me you heard nothing with the standard box so anything else is a bonus! a lot of people have said not what they expected, but what do they expect? I had no perception of sound, just wanted a bloody NSX LOL! :grinning:

Many thanks for all the kind comments, but they are a GREAT car.

Glad to hear most like the colour; know its not to everyone's tastes but I definitely like yellow on an NSX. NOT a colour I would choose on other cars mind you! I will get a few more pics put up at some point.
