Cool vids. That nsx looks soo nice in white.

Does anyone know how much horsepower the nsx-r has and how much it weights?

All fast Japanese cars produce 280hp according to specs. There is an agreement between manufacturers and the government to limit hp to 280 so if a car has more than 280 it is still listed as 280.

Thats correct.. but like all pure bread race cars... i.e. Skyline GTR... NSX R...Silvia S15
Simply change the exhaust and get an extra 30 HP
