Dylan06SS Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Are you talkin' old NSX or new NSX? I beleive the new one is actually slightly slower than the previous generation in the 1/4 mile because of added weight (interior luxury items) and slightly lower HP.... I could be wrong... haven't heard much about the newer ones other than most people were majorly disappointed. Against an SS? The NSX isn't exactly a straight line racer either. Car & Driver NSX info Doesn't list times, but almost $90k for only 290 hp and 224 ftlbs even if it is faster than an SS its a rip off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancar Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I located this information for factory stock NSX's. It is 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile times. I would conclude that our SS would be in deep trouble, even in moderately modified form. 1991 Acura NSX 5.8 14.4 1992 Acura NSX 5.6 13.9 1993 Acura NSX 5.6 13.9 1994 Acura NSX 5.3 13.6 1996 Acura NSX 5.2 13.8 1996 Acura NSX-T 5.8 14.3 1997 Acura NSX-T 4.8 13.3 2002 Acura NSX 4.8 13.4 2002 Acura RSX Type S 6.1 14.8 2003 Acura RSX Type S 6.7 15.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tienda Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 maybe if nsx would give the ss a headstart, we might have a chance. be i still would choose the ss over the nsx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sswolfpac Posted November 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 the old nsx can install facto x engineering.this means the motor can be changed to 500hp.there is a guy in modesto cali that has one with 500hp. only obd1 can do this. the new one cannot yet. it is still a great car. if i had the choice my dream car is a skyline r34 spec 11. that is a ballsy car.and you can get to 1000hp withblitz turbo kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sswolfpac Posted November 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 i have the look for a truck not an import. bald head beard growing, bot gq for an import. i dont llike rich cars mercedees, bmw. i like cadillacs, would luv an escalade with 23's on it. but truck fits me and i would not go back for anything , if i lose the ss i would get another truck as a project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevySSandChevy8.1 Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 NSX is just way too pricey, not a fan of those imports, you can buy a c5 for half the money that has better performance. I'm not biased towards imports (just traded in One SS on one) but I just find them very pricey for what you get and their service is so expensive. The escalade is definately one of my favorite vehicles. especially with rims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
