So after building a J swapped prelude I figured the only way to be better was rwd. I have dreamed of owning a NSX since I was 16. I finally got to a place in my life where I could get one. I absolutely hate following in someone elses footsteps or doing something that has already been done.
Background on the car. I picked up a 2002 Silverstone NSX shell with matching interior a few months ago. I had a few other projects that needed to be completed before starting the nsx. They are done. And I started it last week. My daily driver was t boned by an intoxicated driver so i have the full swap.
If clearance permit I will be running a topmount turbo manifold and have a roof scoop for direct air.
I received the car with steelies and spares on it so i had an extra set of wheels laying around to throw on it.
had to take apart the TL and pull the motor.
On jackstands ready to go. The busa is in pieces right now too, time to triple the power on it.
Taking it apart getting it ready for the J.
I have a few motors and trannys laying around
dropping the motor in through the top. Custom cradle at the bottom hold the motor stationary while i build the mounts.
Motors sitting in place. plenty of room for all mounts to be made.
parts I had laying around to build the mounts
precesion 6765 ball bearing turbo, intercooler, and bov
Im hoping to have the mounts finsished this week. I still need to get a set of nsx axels to figure out which I need to go with. The shift linkage is going to be the difficult part.
more updates later.
