My first NSX (a 2000) was pristine and stock when I sold it. I had my current '02 (again, stock) for a couple of years until I finally started modifying it. I remember the first mod I installed – a Cold Air Intake. It was like cutting myself… she was no longer a virgin.
Now that I have a list of mods, I thought I'd mention my favorite as of today, 12/05/2006. Why today? Well, because my car is at Autowave getting a CTSC & headers installed. But what made me realize what my favorite mod is was basically due to the drive down to Autowave.
My favorite mod is my MOMO Team 300mm steering ring.
It's hard to put into words... but because the steering wheel is so small, it takes much less movement to command the already sharp response of the NSX into action. As I was cruising down I405 towards Huntington Beach (in very light traffic), it felt so much more effortless to zig and zag around the slow curves, between lanes, and through traffic than it ever felt with the stock steering wheel. And on city streets, I can easily take corners without moving either hand position… just twist the wheel and you're off in a new direction. It kinda gives me the feeling of driving an open wheel F1 car.
The new CTSC may change my mind, but for now, it's the 300mm steering wheel. (I may be posting here again in a couple of weeks. :biggrin: )
What's yours?
