Who's car is this at Nopi 2001? The wing and the trunk is very attractive. What kind of wheels is that? Looks like it might have been the wheel I'm looking for. It looks like it has sufficient space for my big brake kit.

Nope I don't. UPRD(Under Pressure Research & Developement) in Huntington Beach used to be the Yokohama/Advan Distributors, but I don't know if they still are/or if they are still in business.
 
When I saw that car come in I thought the wing looked odd (from a side view). The rear quarter view in the picture looks better.

Just an observation & I'm sure it's possible that Romeo might be constantly tinkering w/ mods on his NSX, but this car has Florida plates and the last time I chatted w/ him, he had a ton of JDM aftermarket mods on his car including the tiny little carbon fiber JGTC racing side view mirrors like the Taitec ones from SOS. This NSX has oem mirrors.
 
Well if you look at the other pics, you'll notice that there'a brake air duct opening on it. I think the RM one only has small opening...and it's on the left I think.
 
The RM has a "scoop" on each side with two holes in each scoop. You can leave it as is or attach ducting to direct the air to your brakes on each side.

Yokohama Advan wheels in Japan are the cheapest of cheap. They are rather common. Just a set of rims in 18/19 should cost no more than $2000 shipped. My TE-37s, in 17/17 size, which I purchased from Japan costs $1600 shipped ($350 shipping).

If you can get Kruezer V in 19x8 for $2000 us Dealers would love to buy from you.
 
I know that Vick at Discuont Tire in El Monte, CA can get these Yoko rims. He was trying to sell me these same rims in July. here's his number 1-888-568-2746. Tell him that I'm a friend of yours if your interested in rims from Japan. Same disclaimer applies (I have no financial interests yada yada...
