Yeah that is the one. His driving was brilliant, his dress sense - notsomuch.

it was the early 90's... I'm sure most of us wouldn't post up what we looked like back then so I think we can give him a pass on the wardrobe

I'd wear a farkin tutu if I could drive like him

he is a great drive but not sure I'm down with the no helemet and thongs!

best bit of a vid is how he parts the gaggle of japanese reporters standing in front of it like moses parting the red sea!

how did we go from an underpowered road car with sublime handling setup by one of the most famous F1 drivers ever... to an overpowered yank boat engine with $5 of scrap metal bolted around it and no brakes!?

actually f*ck that, what I really want to know is why can't I get my hands on either one at a reasonable price in Australia!

Easy, NSX = estrogen.gif

V-Tec is one of the greatest abominations ever inflected on the motoring public. All that noise and revs to go nowhere pretty quickly :( Especially when a single spinning NSX leaves the pits and some Brazilian cant even slot gears in it :( Best give them a flappy gearbox so hacks who cant shift can still pretend to be able to drive.

Hell, at 1.00min mark he is so late getting back on the throttle because he has ham fisted it up on corner entry, mid corner that he cant get back on the loud pedal until the exit. Imagine if he lived to 2010, he would be perfect for an R35 GTR :)

I actually really like the 3.2L 6spd NSXs but its Friday arvo and want to rant a little

    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
    • hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
    • A universal ball joint removal c press kit is better money spent and will work for the Hicas ball joints.  Here's a 45$ CAD Example. ATPEAM Heavy Duty Ball Joint Press Kit with 4WD Adapters | Professional 4 in 1 Ball Joint Press Removal and Installation Tool for Cars and Trucks | Universal Ball Joint Tool with Storage Case, Ball Joint & Tie Rod Tools - Amazon Canada
