That is a Nice Black NSX in the very back.
Looks Familiar... Wonder when my royalty check is going to come in the mail.

bought it last night... very good reading :wink:

They also mentioned the cost for the GJ turbo conversion.

I believe it was $8700~$9000 range out the door (labor, parts, tunning all included). That is not bad at all.

Hmm.. they must have forgot the $9200 for the engine built to be able to handle the turbo. Then you need a stronger clutch on top of that and better brakes to be able to stop!

They obviously were referring to the turbo, and not the engine.

I need to read this!!

 

[97widebody]

very nice :smile:

 

[len3.8]

Yeah.... No Sheitz!!! A Hella Rebate.
I want $$$$'s for the money shot on the cover of the mag as well. :biggrin:
8-9K, that must be in Euro's and then some. :wink:
Guess I'll run to Walgreens and pick one up.

Gerry send me a mag for free you bum!!!! :biggrin:

Here is the most important page. There are 7 pages total. I am too lazy to sit here and scan remaining pages. Maybe someone else can scan the remaining pages.

The magazine mentioned both, the turbo conversion itself is $8900 out the door. Adding the built C30A will cost additional $9000.

Stock NSX internal is not able to handle at least 350~400rwhp for low boost set up?

Adding clutch is common sense for heavily modified cars. You are correct about brakes. I guess not too many cars come with powerful stock brakes that is able to handle 500~600rwhp like Supra TT.

Anyone know where I can get that beautiful carbon hatch scoop? I think the profile is low enough that it need not be dis-mounted to open the hatch. I would like to mount that on a Lexan Race Hatch and let some air in.

That dyno graph is killer. Look how flat that torque curve is! Awesome. Picked up the mag yesterday and also read the nsxprime.com mention in the editor's column.

Not too shabby.
