If you massively rebuild an automotive demigod like the NSX, there will always be at least two different opinions. It's the same as becoming install a Honda engine in a Ferrari. Some find that glorious, others see it as blasphemy. So one thing is a fact: This vehicle will cause discussions. It is the latest project by Kazuki Ohashi from madlane and it definitely looks cool. To understand what makes the old NSX from the late '90s so special, you have to know that it was fine-tuned by Formula 1 driver Ayrton Senna. When Senna tested its McLaren F1989 with a Honda engine in Suzuka in 1, Honda was testing the almost finished NSX prototype. Senna got in and took the NSX for a spin. His feedback from that day and the subsequent tests at the Nürburgring gave the Honda engineers valuable advice on the set-up. They improved the chassis stiffness of the NSX by 50% and made various adjustments to the suspension and handling based on Senna's recommendations.
Air ride in the Honda NSX
The NSX was always conceived as an everyday sports car. That meant he never had trouble getting into parking garages or negotiating bumps in the road. In the series condition, however, the NSX looks a bit long-legged, which is probably what the majority of tuners think coilover would fix. But the Madlane team went one step further. They installed one Airride air suspension. With just a push of a button, the NSX can be lowered towards the road. The all-aluminum chassis was modified in a few places to accommodate the air suspension. And according to Kazuki, the air suspension has been adjusted over endless hours so that the average user doesn't feel the difference. According to the tuner, the tendency of the body to roll when cornering has been reduced and the sagging of the rear when accelerating is said to have disappeared. We really like the result visually, because the NSX looks outstanding, especially in combination with the new wheel set in body color.
only a few visual changes
specifically installed high gloss compacted and with regard to the rim star painted in vehicle color multi-piece (unknown manufacturer), which come into their own in combination with the Prazis Air Suspension chassis including P4 management and fit perfectly into the wheel housing. The rest of the vehicle is rather clean held by color scheme in white and black. At the stern there was still black taillights, a sporty one diffuser and in front you apparently built xenon technology in the headlights. With a painted one Front spoiler the tuning is essentially rounded off. If we get more information about the changes, there is of course an update for this report.
