NSX Side sill cross section - FYI

[MvM]

As we all know, the NSX is a very, very stiff car.
This is mainly due to the very strong chassis bars running lengthwise from front to end. The side-sills of the NSX are made of extruded and folded aluminum.
If you have ever wondered what they look like inside, here is a picture of a NSX side sill cross section. In this case from a NSX-T. I have been told that it is diagonal part that was strengthened in the NSX-T, it is thinner in the coupe version.

Cool picture! This is the first time I've seen a real picture of this part.

In case you're interested, here's the diagram (from MAJOR STONER's gallery) that shows the changes made in the NSX-T:

It looks like several sections were made thicker and an additional section was added.

Thanks !! In my case, I had not seen that drawing before.
It seems Honda altered the side sills even more than I knew.
Never to old to learn I quess...
