I know this is a really old thread, but just stumbled across it when I was looking for something else. Bit of info that might be helpful......... Even if you did try to use 3, you wouldn't want to as you could get to the two on the rear easy enough, but it would be dangerous to get to the...

So I hope everyone had a very merry Xmas and are sitting relaxing ready for 2020 to be over. Then again, I'm not sure 2021 is going to be much better, but at least we all know how to deal with COVID now I guess....... Glass half full, lets assume 2021 is going to be way better ! Hopefully...

Just looking at a whole load of options at the moment so we'll see what falls out of the bottom of all the research........ I really just wanted to gauge interest from others to understand if it's just me that's looking for something else, but it seems like there's plenty of interest for some...

Hey all. Not here to take deposits, or sell anything yet, but am considering doing something for myself and wondered if there's others out there in the NSX community that might want to take advantage as well, or if I approach this differently and assume it's a total one off for us and no one...

OK so it's been a while but the car is finally back together and has been on the dyno.......... I'll get to that later, but just wanted to go through the stuff that we needed to do before the car was ready. This whole upgrade process was meant to be quite straight forward, but as time went on...

Well it took a good little while again, but eventually got some more updates to the car / engine. Unfortunately there was a bit of a mixup with the engine builds (we're actually building 2 engines) and the pictures from the last post were engine #1 , but whilst we were about ready to put this...

I hope everyone is doing well out there with this COVID headache trying it's best to hang around...... We finally came out of lockdown that allows me to travel to collect my finished engine so wanted to share. Now before any eagle eyed people mentioned it........I've put the turbo's on back to...

Thanks Steve. We're hopefully going to come out of our official level 4 lockdown next wednesday, so if that happens I should be able to get down to the workshop to get back onto this.......it's been hard not being able to get my new engine back from the builders and back in the car, but it all...

Hey guys, thanks heaps for the comments. It indeed should be a weapon once it's all back together. Target weight ready to race (without driver) is 2310lb or 1050KG. We are pretty close to that now and we haven't done the doors yet, and we think there's a good 80lb to lose from the doors...

Well it's a very funny time around the world right now so I wanted to start off by saying that I hope everyone is safe and trying to help the world get back to normal as soon as possible. I'm not sure what the story is in your part of the world, but here in New Zealand we're on a full lockdown...

Although it only seems like a little bit of progress it's actually been a major to get this stage done. I've been distracted with other things and this stuff required some major input from Zac as always when it comes to the composite stuff !! I had been doing some hours here and there over...

Yep 100% agree. Did you get my private message ? I know you're no doubt busy, but interested in your comments / info. Cheers Fraser

Thanks Billy...……… always useful as always :) I'm going to drop you a PM about another subject, but thanks again for the advice. I totally hear you on CFD...…. even wind tunnels you hear about teams talking about how their wind tunnel work doesn't seem to relate to what they're seeing on...

Hmmmm yes I see your point Billy...……… thanks very much for that...…… something more to think about...……….. Our thinking at the moment is that the new diffuser is a massive improvement on the current one, so even if the efficiency isn't great, it should still be an improvement over the...

Hey Billy...…… if that was the case then would the argument be the same for a hot blown diffuser where the hot exhaust is routed through the diffuser into the flow of air ? This diffuser area is over twice the area of the old diffuser and the coolers won't be taking up the whole diffuser area...
