Encounter with a friend:
The meeting came suddenly. Fellow who kept sleeping in the indoor special
keeping warehouse for a long time. The mileage was only 4,400km. I am sure
to have wanted surely to run under the blue sky. Thus, she was untied,
and became my lover on December 3, 2005. |
|
Impression:
The body was made to slide into to driver's sheet like the cockpit, and
there was not worth of the age when the steering wheel of this car was
gripped for the first time and either my heart throbbed. It is the same
as feelings exciting of putting to the car for the first time at infancy. When
the engine starter is turned, the engine sound in a profound bass region
is transmitted from the engine room of the back. It is a moment when
the oneness with a peculiar machine to the midship is felt. If the throttle
is completely opened, the driver is invited to the different dimension
space with an engine sound that is peculiar to VTEC and shrill once. Exactly,
it is one that can personally experience purity sports that HONDA advocates.

| NSX from which sales in the country had been begun in September, 1990 ended
in December, 2005 all production, and finished the mission of 15 years
that had kept reigning as a flagship of HONDA sports. However, there are
still a lot of fans that withers in the desire of HONDA Pure Sports. |
|
Major modification:
About nine months have passed beginning to get on NSX. The car equipped
with the manual transmission seems to be better to enjoy the sport driving
at circuits. It was not possible to separate from the lover easily so,
it put on the manual transmission of TYPE-R 5MT, and it decided to change
it though it thought about the purchase substitution for the manual transmission
car. The ABS system was replaced with the latter term when reliability
is high type at the same time (Sep/2006). Super lock LSD was mounted
and final gear was changed from 4.235 to 4.4 (Dec/2006). |
|
Examples of poor driving:
There is no chance to take a picture of the running image of the car quite. It
bears shame and the appearance in the circuit is opened to the public from
among very few libraries. |

Watch out for:
When this car is driven, the most attentive is high speed operation at
rain. The spin might be easily happened at the speed at 100 km/h or more
according to the situation. It has delicate one side of extremely
causing the hydroplaning easily by the fact that the midship layout and
the front wheel load are few. |
