Nice work. Those headlights look great! What exactly did you do to them? Do you have any more detailed photos of them?

Cheers!

I have blacked out the head lights. There is a thread on prime about painting the inside of the headlights. search for black headlights. Mine was done at HELLA, a well known German head lights company. A guy at Hellas R&D tuned up my lights and changed out the amber turn signals into smoked ones too.

That's awesome that you actually got them modified by HELLA. Thanks!

Great car! 2700lbs! thats great you got it that low. Im too much of a wimp to remove the A/C on mine. Great work, everything looks very nice.

Beautiful nsx, tastefully modded

The "austrian type-R" NSX

Really well done, a fine example of a Type-R!

sehr schön gemachter NSX. Mit Sicherheit einer der top 5 in europa. Jetzt noch die 50 kg Wohnzimmersessel austauschen, damit die Diät richtig Sinn macht.

Gruß Chris

Looks sweet! Great job man! Love the headlights too!!

Very nice!

I like the set up and your headlights blacked out. If I had an extra pair I would do the same…

Very well done... hopefully mine will look as nice.

Love your build and choice of upgrades. The paint is immaculate. Looking forward to more updates!

Where can I get the smoked turn signal lenses for the headlights?

Hi! I can get the smoked turns for 85usd + shipping.

thanks

nice ride - Austrian -)

Looks great! The blaced out lights look great with red, don't think they'd look good on black, would look like a C6 on mine haha

HI! I got some news here. Pulled out my stock engine and droped in the engine from my retired race car. Since I could not sell it for an decent price I use it myself now - one of the reason is the Time Attack Germany I will join next year. [] It has dynoed already with 354bhp and 331nm. With my weight reduction I did, it will give me a power to weight ratioof just 3,33kg per horsepower. Thats about the same league than Porsche GT3 RS 2006 - 2009

deleted EGR system
Comptech camshafts and Comptech adj. cam gears
Supertech dual valve springs

target weight: 1180kg with full fluids and gasoline /// without driver.

Beautiful car.

Hey Austrian,

are you happy with the downforce seats? Thinking about buing them by my self too so would appreciate some comments on that.
Which seat raisl did you use?

Greetings from good old Germany

hi! I have informed me the same way like you. I have contacted 2 people, one in USA and a guy in Australia. They told me the seats are awesome and well worth the money and this product from downforce is far way better than the other parts they do (talking about the body parts when you have to do some work to the hood, side skirts, etc so they fit 100% nice). I use the SOS Rails. I do not have installed the seats yet, but the cat likes!

Perfect - we'll see. If installed, just le me know. Planning to order by next year - march or April.

cannot see the pictures unfortunately

Spooled down 150km test drive. Sounds like a freakin GT Racecar, nice blubbeling sound at closed throttle and quickly revs up like a motorcycle with the light auminium crankpulley and the super light Exedy dual carbon disc clutch, which is totaly okay for daily driving. Also the pedal feeling is like stock, maybe a bit harder, but nothing you can't get used to it after 10 times clutching.

Fuel concuption before fine mapping is 12 litre in normal driving and with some WOT runs, fast uphill driving and some cruising is 13,2 litre concuption....so about 1,5-2 litres more than on stock engine and I bet it gets better after fine-tuning.

It is a different car now, the sound, the throttle response, 330nm and 355hp, the extra punch out of the revs-bottom up to near 9000rpm. Also the "gap" from 1st into 2nd gear where it's usualy out of VTEC is gone completely...so no need of shortening the tranny or the 6speed....saved some money here

I like to go on the dyno again for final mapping in the next 3-4 weeks.



Last week I installed the Downforce NSX-R replica seats along with SOS rails. The installation was easy and the seatposition is about 2cm higher vs the oem leather seats. The cushions of the DF seats are kinda high, it would be no problem to shave off 3-4cm of the foam. I have to do a test drive and have to feal how it is....


The Shorei Li-Iron Batterie is also here now, this should be getting me to a total curb weight + all fluids to ~1185kg. I will go again to the truck scale when weather is fine.

I made something speacial for the belt lashes...some of you know the oem NSX belt lash is about 2-3cm shorter than the NSX-R lash. I got some ITR rear seats lashes, which are without those stiffening-plasic but about 2-3cm longer then oem NSX belt lashes. I used some stiffening-plastic from an parted out NSX and warmed them up with a heat-gun and pulled the plastik back over the ITR lashes. Now the modified ITR lashes are stiff, flushs smothly into the seat-holes and are not sliping back, which would be annoying every time when you want to get the seat belts on. I will show some pics later.

The German Time Attack Masters dates are finaly here! You can watch me in the class "CLUB" where I want to get into the Top 3 - theoretical it is possible to get out as the winner if all things are on my side []
