The Honda NSX 1990-2000 (10 year retrospective)

You can go through the Best Motoring web site to order them directly:

http://www.bestmotoringvideo.com/

Best Buy, Amazon, Borders, and Barnes & Noble has them as well.

Thanks guys, but those videos are from Best Motoring International, which is the english-language publisher. They are compilation DVD's containing clips of various BM episodes. The videos I am looking for are the original Japanese versions, that have the full content. For example, Vol.25 is an entire hour dedicated to the NA1 NSX-R, with a Suzuka time attack and Nurburgring time attack, along with a comprehensive overview of the car. These videos are not available through BMI. I wish someone could subtitle them, but I'll even take them without.

Ohhh...gotcha. Maybe try Yahoo Japan Auctions w/ Rinkya as your deputy service.

Quick lookup provided these results:

First read this: http://www.gtrblog.com/2008/05/15/gtrblog-how-to-order-books-dvds-magazine/

Then go to Japan Amazon and order from here: http://www.amazon.co.jp/s/?url=sear...de=wql&camp=759&creative=3887&_encoding=UTF-8

Just modify the year in the search field to find the specific volumes you want.

I along with Kenji were the first ones to distribute Best Motoring International in the U.S. so if you don't mind the international version PM me and I can see about scaring up some copies.

Hi

I have a lot BM stuff on my home server. I checked now and it is about 6.7gb. I also have a BM dvd which may be the 10 year retrospective.

Let me know if you are interested.

There are two folders there too. In the Nurburgring folder there is a file of the NSX-R. May be from 2003.

In the drag folder there is NSX vs 355, Porsche, Type S and 911 vs Type S.

Let me know if anything is of interest for you and we find a solution.

Regards

I stumbled upon these two videos and really enjoyed the bit comparing a few modified NSX's to the 02+ NSX-R.

I'm the type for whom a stock NSX checks every box so I'm often intrigued and wonder (as an engineer too) about what mods really improve NSX performance objectively and which mostly subjectively make the owner more happy than really improve performance significantly beyond OEM (nothing at all wrong with that too). And I'm sure some achieve both. So I really enjoyed watching some experts chime in on what it was like to drive a few different modded NSX's and feedback thought about suspension mods, drivetrain mods, etc.

Starts at around 9:59 in video 1

Then continues in video 2



One thing I found interesting was their mentioning that power steering helped thru the corners...I always thought PS only activated at parking lot speeds.
