Bought a 135,000km nsx automatic with intention of sending to JAS for restomod before they showed interior build
everything looks ok except
>no more vtec
that’s ok, vtec is always “on” although i would have preferred the og style. the whole reason i fell in love with honda sports cars was a 4cyl vtec in the prelude and how it feels like an econobox at low rpms and super fun to drive in the powerband, but i was willing to give it a shot with a higher performance engine

>digital flat screen tablet instead of analog instrument cluster
this is the deal killer. no way am i paying $1.04 million usd for some tabletshit cluster

all they had to do was give something like pic related

>in b4 larp
i sold hundreds of thousands of chainlink at $52.00 after buying the ico with eth i got when eth was like $8.00

im gonna just put a manual in my nsx and rebuild the engine

p.s. i am brown

Unless they have cam phasing that's gonna suck, I don't think they developed a whole new head for it but maybe they did for a mil. If it's really a stock head with vtek always on it's probably paired with a super close ratio trans with like 10 gears. T. Poorfagg

I wish I was this rich. I missed out on the biggest gold rush in decades. Poverty sucks.

you should have gotten a nissan Z it’s the only based and non color spectrum pilled car
>>
Nah you dont have $1 million for a restomod no matter how lucky you got with shartcoin. Your doner vehicle wouldn't be the cheapest clapped out automatic nsx you could find if that was true.
>>
>>29118650
Fake and gay
>>
>>29118663
it’s a 6 spd and the engine is built by some reputable company, i think judd
>>29118706
illogical insinuation
first off 135k doesnt mean clapped out
i remember when i thought high mileage automatically meant bad, it is cute you still do
secondly mine is a really good example and it would have been better to send jas a “clapped out” one because it doesnt matter as long as the frame is good and also it preserves nicer nsx examples that can stay original

>>29118666
just find something fun to do and youll earn good money doing it probably

>>29118674
ok in a few months when i go back out to where the car is . i left it in the area i bought it because it is closer to an export port. it made no sense to bring it back where i live if i was gonna ship it

honda’s heritage program has many parts for the nsx now so i think i can do the manual swap pretty easily
idk how i will source an instrument cluster without the P R D L markers though
i might actualy custom make one desu

>Jas Tensei
Hideous looking thing, but it's hard to improve on perfection.

>>29118650
Do you have a cool car collection or just NSX?

>he thinks a company willing to take ONE MILLION DORRAH for a restoring Honda wouldn't be willing to entertain unique requests for certain details
>in his mind it's like ordering a Civic
sad larp imho, nigga has never been anywhere near something nice
>>
>>29118650
If you can afford to drop a million on a car, you can just ask them to keep analog clusters and vtec.

>>29118650
>nsx automatic
what nigga?

>>29118946
i only really buy overlooked cars because i put miles on them
i have a 2005 quattroporte maserati
and a 2005 vanquis s aston martin
i also have a 2nd gen tacoma i am putting a dct on and designing my own carbon fibre body panels etc
currently looking for a building to buy to setup a shop

>>29119055
dude im not a sucker burning cash for no reason
if they cant implement a proper instrument cluster on their spec im not interested in paying +$30,000 add-on for a proper set
>>29119064
im just not doing it
it should come right from them without further requests
once i noticed this i realized the value proposition in it doesnt exist
id rather just work on it myself now
>>
>>29119489
Post your progress (and NSX!) here once you start doing it. And show us your Aston Martin too! I likr your taste and envy you.
>>
>>29119489
also thinking of grabbing a 155k+ miles alfa giulia qv and manual swapping it
the other project i have in mind is a jag xj restomod (round light generations) because i think the exterior on those cars are really nice especially the Ford years but the interiors are absolutely awful
i might buy a purosangue at the right price too
>>
>>29119492
Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation
>>
>>29119104
they're really easy to put a manual in except sourcing the proper instrument cluster

btw ferrari designer absolutely nailed it on the Luce interior

>>29118650

None of this shit makes any sense and I dont even care if it's a larp but consider the dumb gates you established in your own mind, then wrote them out for us to read.
You were planning to commission a restomod costing 8-10x what you have in some shitbox NSX but you dont like the default instrument cluster; but you also dont want to talk to them and tell them to change it on your $1million custom build. Oh and also in your sperglet brain this "kills the deal".
Amazing stuff!
>>
>>29120205
you're embarassing yourself as you clearly have no idea what the tensei project is . you seem to think it is a one-off. please stop posting before further revealing your own dunning kruger
>>
>>29120205
p.s. if i walk into a newly built home and notice an overtly bad design choice i will turn around and walk out
i have no copes or tolerance for incompetence to such a high degree
imagine walking in a $13 million penthouse and the sink on the kitchen island is on the opposite side of where it should be and the chairs are placed in front of the oven and fridge so they cant be opened without moving whoever is sitting there
do you continue the tour of the house or do you turn around and walk out? Im turning around and walking out because anyone stupid enough to put a tablet cluster on an nsx restomod costing 1.08 million usd isnt worth continuing to deal with
