any stock nsx's ever run track? 91-95 nsx 1/4 mile and 0-60?

Gokwi · 22 January 2003

Hi, I would like to know what is the official 1/4 mile run for the stock 91-95 NSX's

and if you have one, what did you run?

also I have heard different numbers for 0-60 mph. I have heard 5.3, 5.4, and the worst 5.7

I would just like verification. thanks

Look in the FAQ, here.

The 5.7 number is for the auto. It gets endlessly, and erroneously, applied to the NSX in general because most people are lazy readers, lazy thinkers and generally ignorant.

Hate to sound harsh, but it's really ridiculous how widely available and universally corroborated statistics get twisted completely around on the web. It's not just a car thing, it happens with everything.

12.9? Wow, car and driver managed to click off quite the 1/4 mile in a stock nsx...much lower than everyone else!

Looks like Car and Driver tested the 98 NSX and everyone else are 91 or 92.

You've noticed too eh?

I took an ad hoc trip to the Great Lakes Dragaway last fall after some shopping. I only had time for two runs, and had never practiced launching the NSX. Here are the results

The car is a bone stock manual '91. I improved on the second run due to a more aggresive launch. I was happy with the ET, but thought the trap speed was low. Is 2.006 a good, bad or poor 60' time for a stock '91?

they got that time two years in a row on C&D TV. For comparison, dshwtarz ran 12.58 at E-Town in a 3.2L w/only I/H/E.

ak · 23 January 2003

ran 14.0@102 stock
ran 13.6@107 H/E on my '94

i think average, stock 91-96 runs around 13.8...

any stock nsx's ever run track? 91-95 nsx 1/4 mile and 0-60?
