So I just picked up a 1994 SC'd Acura NSX. - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

vegasspeed · 12-03-2009, 04:06 PM

I flew out to Kentucky to buy it. It is getting shipped out here right now. Here is the original for sale thread but I will take more pictures when it isn't raining in Kentucky.

I am pretty excited to add that to my collection of cars. It will be here this weekend.

Looks like a FANTASTIC example of an NSX, especially for the miles! Wow!

MisterSkiMask · 12-03-2009, 04:13 PM

nice

SteveMD · 12-03-2009, 04:58 PM

How much power and torque with the SC?

JoosyJoos · 12-03-2009, 05:01 PM

That thing looks amazing! Congrats on the purchase.

Should be around 350-400whp and 3XXtrq. Car wasn't designed to be blistering fast, but had the best handling in the world when I was designed. Awesome CAR!!

JoshuaWong1989 · 12-03-2009, 07:11 PM

damn i want a nsx too ! wana trade?

ACZakka325i · 12-04-2009, 12:53 AM

CLEAN! Enjoy in good health!

san~man · 12-04-2009, 03:49 AM

BTW OP, that's a sick car. Congrats.

Epik · 12-04-2009, 07:52 AM

Wow, yeah that's a beautiful car. I can't believe they killed the NSX.

vegasspeed · 12-04-2009, 01:09 PM

Honda is killing off all their nice cars. The S2000 is done I believe too. This car handles amazing compared to my 335i. It has 350whp right now. It is on the low boost pulley. It can get another 50 with a pulley swap and new fuel injectors.

But would you want to with those kinda miles. I would want to preserve this motor if I were you.

What miles are to be expected on these cars? and with what prices? I'm interested, but know little about them.

dillon733 · 12-04-2009, 03:50 PM

Good luck with the car, looks great!

Ender514 · 12-04-2009, 04:09 PM

awesome man! congrats! i love the NSX.

vegasspeed · 12-05-2009, 03:42 AM

actually, The NSX engine is known to run forever as high as 250k miles on a stock engine. The magic number seems to be 400 whp where you need to start adding things to help out. Science of Speed has a mile engine build for their supercharger that runs about $6,000. The engine isn't that solid for forced induction beyond 500whp. I know someone with a wicked turbo setup pushing 550 at the wheel and he has built up his engine since he blew a rod.

I will probably drive it as is for awhile and then consider beefing it up in a year or so. It feels pretty solid right now. I can't wait to track it. They live to be driven on the track since that is where you notice how well balanced the car is.

yamazaho · 12-07-2009, 02:59 AM

Whoa that's one clean ride, take some more pics when you get it!!!

j0hn · 12-07-2009, 03:20 AM

i literally went 'oh my god' when i saw the pictures. congrats, man!

Robert · 12-07-2009, 05:04 AM

Looking good. Big thumbs up on having the balls to buy a sportscar with that much miles, number of owners, accident and modified. I guess for the price you can just dump it or part it for parts. Guess it takes some research to pick out a gem in used car market. Congrats.

wakeboarder109 · 12-09-2009, 09:00 AM

Congrats! My buddy has a turbo NSX that's putting down about 500 at the wheels. Definitely one of my favorite cars of all time.

vegasspeed · 12-09-2009, 12:57 PM

The accident didn't have any frame damage. It was pretty minor it appears. That did bother me at first. I had a prepurchase inspection that helped things out. The car is really good shape. There are quite a few NSX's with 100k+ miles out now. For those that don't know much about the Acura NSX and are used to German cars mileage isn't as much a concern. Believe me, if my 335i had 116,000 miles I would be worried something major would break. Actually, I am thinking I need to have some noise checked out on the BMW anyway.

TSM330i · 12-09-2009, 12:59 PM

NSX perfected! Congrats on a beautiful car.

anthony @ eas · 12-09-2009, 01:55 PM

Wow I'm jealous. I've always wanted a first gen NSX. Post more pics, and congrats!
