My BIG problem was the front tires

Nice Clip!, I thought the entire clip you we're gonna overtake him on a corner sin you got so close to him. You looked like a pro out there. Thanks for the contribution.

where is that camera? in the front bumper?! its so low! What are your mods? I am assuming your car is not stock... I can't believe the C4S could not out-accelerate you either?! Nice driving.

Hmmm.... your car should understeer like a pig. Are there any R compound tires for our 18" front?

 

[menfou]

My NSX engine is stock except a header+exhaust+aem ems.
I tuned myself the aem ems on the road.

I use a webcam(in fog light) for the movie.

I understeer, I need better tire in front.

The porsche 997 4S is 97 979Euros in France
3.8 liters,355hp,1475kg.

Great clip! Great driving!!

I'm curious, how much torque or hp did you gain from the aem tuning?

Henry.

She rolls well your nsx!!!!!! You please there! :smile:

 

[NSXDreamer2]

what's the reason of fitting a poor street tire in front and one of the best R compound tires in the rear??

I haven't seen the clip yet, but the same setup on my hand would probably result a crash

If you don't have R888 available, I would suspect that you can always pick RA1, it's not ideal, but at least they are a little better match.

Nice driving :smile:

Very nice idea to mount a webcam in the front foglight. The quality is better than I would have thought.
I wonder what the 911 4S really weighs with complement of fluids. Nice to know a NSX with I/H/E can keep up with it.

About three weeks ago I had some runs with a Merceds SL55 AMG which overtook me at a traffic light on a pretty desolate piece of road with quite a few turns in it. He had the top down and even though he tried hard (juding from the sound from his car) he could not loose me at all.
I was very surprised to find out later that the SL55 has 476 HP (and 4300 lbs as well). On paper he should have walked away from me easy but at least up to 120 I could keep up with him.

 

[Vendetta]

Very nice

What are the advantages of having an AEM EMS on a stock motor?

 

[menfou]

More Ignition+better A/F = more torque and power
The power curve is better
The vtec is 5000rpm

I bought a AEM because in few weeks, I will put a Turbo on my car
