Best looking NSX I've seen. Just beautiful.

Is it annoying working on the engine with it being in the middle? Seems like there isn't much room to get to it.

knowing you daily your project car makes this thread about 100x cooler.

when can we expect to see some ripper vids and hear that supercharger screaming? is it still untuned? your running the same method to trick your ecu i did on my civic. id recomend a tune asap i wish i had took my car for a tune instead of driving it like that for as long as i did.

what state do you live in? i drove past a red nsx the other day couldn't really get a good look at it was behind another car in traffic. maybe it was yours.

It's super cramped and frustrating sometimes, even something as simple as changing the spark plugs can take over an hour... Headers took almost 15 hours total since parts of the subframe have to come out as well as an engine mount and AC compressor.

I currently live in Kansas, the ecu is handling everything nicely so far, AFR and boost gauges are going in today just so I can stay on the safe side and monitor everything. EMS will come in the future for sure. I've been slacking on vids, I don't own a go pro and holding my phone while steering and shifting is difficult (and dangerous lol). Ill try to figure something out for you guys ;).
What gen civic? If its sc'd I'm guessing 8th gen?

nope was a 1996 ek hatch 6th gen midori green. with a m45 jrsc. not a fast car by any means. but was definitely fun and a great sleeper. i had a stock exhaust so just looked and sounded stock people never expected the ss was great. currently im seriously considering d-series swapping my integra with a fresh motor and putting my jrsc on and bring it straight to the tuner.

my integra has a b18 nonvtec with i/h/e. build plan if i keep it would be stage 2 cam so i dont need to build the head. and a intake mani. would be aiming for getting around 170whp but honestly whp just a number to me i dont get to hung up on it.

the other option is i still have my header jrsc thats ported and many more goodies if i d-series swap.
also still have the shell from my other car so ive got all the axels and other parts required to do the swap so would be easy. and only cost me about 800$ for a fresh rebuilt motor.
if i do this swap would be shooting for 180whp atleast. but id really like to break 200 idk that ill ever achieve that though.

E: im really like that you painted the cf hood. keeps your car looking alot cleaner imo.
