Logical upgrade from my S2000?
#482
Your NSX is silver?!?! I thought it was red this whole time....
Congrats on that AP1.
Going to need:
-banjo bolts (baffle the oil pan while it's out)
-AP2 (or Ti) valve springs, retainers & keepers
-Seem weld front control arm area
-Larger radiator (AP1s run slightly hotter than AP2 due to the extra 1K RPMs)
Eventually, look at a front brake upgrade if you want your pads & rotors to last longer than 3-4 track days.
At a purchase price of $12k, all of that is still under $20k total.
Other than that, you're good to go. Happy driving. I had two consecutive years of 12-15 track days each year after i broke up with my GF (also got in 20+ days snowboarding both of those years)... Fun times

Ballade Sports upgraded the head with Supertech valves, valve guides/springs. I was told this addressed the AP1 valve retainer issue.
Banjo bolts and baffled oil pan are on the to-do list, but not before the first track day. BBK also.
Can you elaborate on the seam welding?
I don't think you'll ever not own at least one lol.

Photos of the new radiator setup would be nice.

Plenty of info and pictures in this thread. No need to buy expensive reinforcement plates, just seam weld where the factory used spot welding. only affects AP1s, honda addressed it with the AP2
