Finally got these bad boys installed yesterday.

Any spacers used to clear the brakes? I may be getting these when my RZ come in.

 

[synth19]

I have spacers for better fitment, but the RS has a RIDICULOUS amount of clearance. Spacers are not needed. You definitely won't have issues with the RS, but not sure if the RZ is the same amount as the RS.

Very nice and good choice of BBK :wink:

 

[Brooklynzson]

looks good, any full length side shots?

 

[angus]

The Rz had almost the same clearance , you will not need spacers with 17x8 37 offset fronts , in rear you will have HUGE clearance.

Not yet, but I will probably do a full shoot with all the new winter/spring mods in the next several weeks or so. Also, for those wondering, I had the brakes custom painted by a bodyshop imola orange pearl. They applied about 5-6 layers of clear on top as well. The good guys at stoptech sent me replacement decals.

Nice!

What's your opinion of the General Exclaims?

Nice!

What's your opinion of the General Exclaims?

They are "ok" but probably wouldn't be my first choice. The wheels/tires were used.

They are substandard even for a civic.

I'm very glad you did not choose the tires - I was wondering what the heck you were thinking - congrats on another set of wheels , you are just as bad as me.

Wow, the whole NSX look good:biggrin:

 

[TURBO2GO]

Don't you think the paint will peel once the calipers get hot? or are you just planning on never driving the car hard? Looks great but don't you have to use high heat paint and not body paint?

 

[socalx]

I think the brakes / wheels / cars look awesome. Best nsx !!!!

great job

Not sure what they used, but the body shop does calipers on exotics, etc. and assured me I should be OK. I've seen some of their paint match work on lambos and was impressed....We'll see how it goes, worse case I'll have them powder coated in the future, but obviously wont be able to match as good as this.

Another great upgrade!!! I love your car

Stop posting these pics. Too tempting :biggrin:.

 

[Texas91Brent]

Looks awesome............

 

[JCC]

Gorgeous set up!!!! By far one of my favorite NSX's ever.

 

[omega2]

Very nice indeed. I have the same brake system too and I notice people stare at my calipers when I'm driving. Which pads did you go with?

Your NSX looks amazing... Lets see pics of the entire car.

I bought the kit used, but I believe the previous owner changed the pads to hawks. Thanks all for the feedback, I have more goodies to install in the next several weeks before a proper shoot.

 

[Brylek]

Does that mean that you will actually take your car to the track this year ?

 

[MRJdmNSX]

absolutely beautiful, one of my favorite nsx's right now!!
