I'd like to take a closer look at your car. I'm moving to japan in about 8 months and I can't decide between an R34 and an NSX. I'm trying to keep in mind they have type-r and type-s over there. Ooooo and v-spec too

My car has the type R suspension and a light weight diet, perhaps alittle more powerful then a stock NA1 NSX-R because of comptech headers and ark DTS exhaust. You'll see it..then you can decide for yourself. The Skyline and NSX are just completely different cars, they feel completely different, and its going to be more of a personal choice. I've driven the R32, modded to about 350 hp. Very fast, interior was somewhat sentra like, didn't win my heart when it came to overall driving experience...it was just a fast car.

yeah that's what I don't like about the old Skylines.. the interior is built like an econo box but the price isn't. I like the idea of that explosive off the line torque which as a rule most Hondas don't have. plus they have the 'it's a Skyline' factor. The NSX has been my dream car since 9 years old though.. so it's tough for real.

lol. i've test drive a 1996 NSX before. but that was 8-9 years ago so the memory is not so fresh. I do remember however that it seems to have even less room than an S2000 somehow. I'm 6'3" and I had to scoot the seat forward and lean it back in order to hold my head up straight. maybe there are lowered seat tracks available by now for an NSX. I know the GTR has good headroom just by looking at the design.
