Mike, hopefully will get some horsepower soon, from an HP turbokit. So look in the for sale section for my ARC exhaust shortly.

Charles, my car started as a 91 black/black so the roof was originally black then I had it painted spa-yellow, and then back to black. Hopefully I don't switch back.

so you have a black engine bay just like a real R? noice!

Pinta, great pics. I want that chin spoiler Route K's (zaz edition). Still debaiting on the side spats that attach to the 2002 side skirts. Thanks, Frank

Charles, yes my engine bay is black like the real type-r. My car started as a 91 black/black so I lucked out. Frank

 

[dan the man]

Frank i just PMd you before this thread.

So please ignore it

Your car with the white wheels is ace, id love mine to look very similar.

Can someone please photoshop my car in the Honda pearl white color, keeping the roof, mirrors, and rear spolier black. Thanks, Frank

 

[Frank Spano]

Refering to post #102, what do you guys think about the Route K's side spats from the side view of the white nsx? Frank

 

[Senninha]

Frank,

If it were my NSX I would not go with these whilst retaining the clean lines of your NSX-R replica.

IMO, your idea to go Pearl with black top etc is spot on with the exception of white wheels - I would go gunmetal.

Regards, Paul

One month till painting. First, car is getting media blasted, to get yellow off, the fresh coat of platinum white pear:smile: l. Frank

Frank, From prior experience with the aluminum on these cars I've read that it is better to baking soda blast these pieces rather than media blast unless it's super fine, because the aluminum is so thin. Make sure whoever does it is top notch with aluminum.

Chris, the guy is using sodium bicarbonate to strip the car. Frank

 

[Frank Spano]

Would you guys use the factory sideskirts for the new project or use, gt-one, or a set of stacys/DF? Still doing the nsx-r look, but thought I might dress it up a bit while still keeping the car classy. Definately using the nsx DF rear diffuser, that came on the prototype nsx-r. Frank

 

[Senninha]

Hi Frank,

Personally I would stay with the OEM look for the sills. However, if DF reproduce these, together with the door pieces, rear valance and the lower front bumper in CF, this would give your new project a very unique look. The Cf would then tie in well with the spoiler and diffusor and mirrors. IMO, changing to the non OEM style would cheapen the overall look. I would then finish the project by retaining the black top and refinishing the R rims in grey.

Regards, Paul

 

[Frank Spano]

Paul, thanks for the quick reply. I am going to keep the side skirts factory, your correct aftermarket ones will make the car look cheap. I am think about installing the championship nsx-r light to match the championship white wheels, now that the car will be the Honda pearl white. Frank

 

[nsxot1c]

Frank, if you're going to go with the Pearl white I would do the wheels/lights and everything the same. IMO the pearl white next to the champ white will look night and day. I experience that on my car, when parked next to or near any Normal White colors. The Champ white is super super off-white colored.
