You may want to think about your brake refresh. I ran into pretty bad brake fade while engaging in some spirited back road driving.

Using the stock rotors, I upgraded my pads to Project Mu type NS pads. GREAT feel, no fade and about the same or less dusting as stock. Search prime for other comments.

I purchased mine at JDM

Here's the link. http://www.jdmhub.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=217121&path=2_643_970_16908_79555

While you're at it, flush the old brake fluid out. I refilled with Valvoline synthetic hi temp.

Thanks for the advice.I got someone that did it to both of his NSX and it looks new AND feels great :wink: I got and idea what I want to do to it already.

I noticed your stock cats. You need a set of Prospeeds. They weigh less than half the heavy stockers. Incredibly lightweight.
 
I have that exact same Pride V1 it sounds great for a weekend car.

a Daily Driver its sucks. the drone, is too loud. I like to be stealth where ever I go.

after about 30 minutes of bumper to bumper traffic you get over the exhaust sound. and promptly remove it. takes like 15 minutes to remove and re-install the OEM

my Pride V1 is sitting on the side of my house there are probably animals living in it.

Drone is a little loud but you know how it goes,something got to give and i can live with that.Sound and look nicer than the OEM :smile:

Why buy a New console/aftermarket console while you can do it yourself for only 20 bucks and it only took me 20 mins :biggrin:

now we are all about using parts from other cars but. thats.....
whats that from an Acura RL or TL?

again its your car but adding to much you risk being called a ricer

should at least cut it to fit the spoiler and not lip over to the fender.

my 2 cents
