Cost of Mods -- Is my list accurate???

[jond]

I'm making an excel spreadsheet so I can figure out how much each used NSX I look at is worth to me, and also how much it will cost to get it to where I want it(new clutch, suspension, wheels, etc).

Are these numbers round about right? I know specifics like what type of wheels, etc will change things but just to get a rough idea:

clutch 2200
header 1200
exhaust(with hi-flo cats) 2000
nice wheels 2000
Big front Brakes 2000
Intake 400
Short Gears 5000
Front spoiler 300
Rear R spoiler 1000
Suspension(coilovers + swaybars) 1800
Timining belt 1500

maybe i dont want an NSX anymore

Dont let that scare you away! Most of that nots much more then any other car.
And you dont NEED any of it.

I'm making sure I'm on base with my estimates.

I think your about right....
Id buy used, thats what I do. I just wait till something pops up and I snag it. Check the Parts For Section every morning and night, youll find it.

I think you are high on some, low on others. Short Gears $5000???

 

[llf51]

short gears and japanese type r 4.23 is around $1500. It costs another $1500 for installation though.

 

[ncdogdoc]

Short gears are out of line, and can be combined with clutch and timing belt to save some on labor.

You do not need hi flow cats, they are a waste of money, so your exhaust cost should drop unless you want a Tubi or ARC.

HTH.

you can get an Ark exhaust for like $600
and the intake for $100 (downforce)
rear R spoiler for $740 if its frp (downforce)

Thanks! So you're thinking when I change the clutch, for around $1500 more I could get short gears?

Looks good however you are low on the Wheels by about $500.00

 

[gheba_nsx]

Wheels can go up to 4-5000$ for nice ones. It depends what you are looking for...

why is a timing belt 1500?

 

[nsxtasy]

why is a timing belt 1500?

Mostly labor. The cost of parts (timing belt, water pump, coolant) is $400-500 or so, and the rest is labor.
