Is the 2005 NSX almost at our door already?
I dunno about the back though. Spaceship? :ugh:

I also heard rumor of a possible v-8 version for the NSX. Not sure how I feel about that considering Honda's have always been based on smaller motors (kinda feels sorta domestic to me having a v-8 in a import)...

That said though does anybody know what the engine output will be on the newly modified v6 for the hsc. I personally hope honda is able to boost its horse power and torque at least to stock level that is higher then the vspec skyline or supra tt. A 350 plus stock NSX I think personally, would leave alot gasping for air. But I doubt Japan road regulations allow for such a thing, but one can dream.

Even if the new NSX will make "only" 300hp, i still think honda well make a great drivable car. Imagine, how much more horsepower and torque that will be avaible at lower rpms. Plus, having a V6 instead of a V8 is a handling plus. Honda will mostlikely under-rate the output of the engine.

yeah but how much of a handling plus? If they were to use a v8, it wouldn't be some big a$$ block that some might think of when they think of a v-8, knowing Honda's tendencies, it'd probably be close to 4.0, and not much bigger. Considering that it would be a mid-mount engine, I don't see the handling suffering that much, especially considering all the research that went into the NSX (most of it which is probably being reused, or refined for the HSC)
