Yes. 13.1

 

Thought so because 12.1 is very fast for most any stock car.

 

Those are pre 97 exhausts which mean 3.0 liter 5 speed with really tall gearing. Only made 270hp I think, newer ones were much faster

 

[QUOTE=ChefJ,May 6 2007, 09:24 AM] The NSX never really was a straight line car.

 

you really know nothing about NSXs do you?

NA1's with the J30 motor are 270bhp about 235-240whp and run about the same as a AP1 s2k in the 1320 maybe a hair faster.

the NA2 NSXs are a whole different animal and also very underrated. the 3.2 liter motor was rated at "290hp" but many NA2s make 260-270whp stock. these cars run anywhere from 13.1-12.7 depending on the driver.

it should also be noted that the NA1 3.0 responds to mods VERY well. I/H/E on a NA1 will make up to 40whp.

 

Hey Version, which NSX is it in my video? NA1-NA2? I thought it was the newer NSX at the time of the encounter.

 

its a 92' NA1. looks bone stock too, such a sexy car, even 16yrs later.

 

I got a chance to drive a 98 na2 NSX before my uncle sold it, very fun car, sounded great because of where the engine was. It was completely stock too, cant imagine a modded one. I think the reason they seem "underrated" was because of the drive shaft was very efficient because of where the engine was so it loses less than average rwd cars.

 

that has a small part of why the NA2 NSXs where underrated. it had more to do with there trap speeds. a 290hp car making 280whp? i dont think so. even a FWD/Midship layout loses more than that through the transmission.

i.e

RSX....205bhp........170whp on average.

thats a 35hp loss.

EP Si........160bhp.........130whp on average.

NA2 NSX..........290bhp.........280-275whp.......i dont think so.

i'd rate the NA2's around 310bhp or so more realistically. after all the CAN run 12.7-8@113.

 

saw a laguna NA2 today
