In order to strengthen the stock five-speed drivetrain from the shock of 500 hp, Siu knew he couldn't leave stock equipment in place. A RPS clutch kit was installed, consisting of a stronger single clutch disc and lightweight flywheel. A JDM five-speed gearset was also installed, featuring shorter 2-4 gear ratios that the Japanese and European NSX's received stock. Then, as if those gears weren't short enough, Siu added in a OS Giken limited-slip differential and shorter OS Giken 4.44:1 final drive ratio gear. With both shorter gearing and more power on tap, this NSX flies through the gears, eating up the road like a ravenous animal.
The NSX has always been praised for its stellar handling prowess, but car control gets tricky when generating the kind of speed possible with 500 hp. So Siu added in Ground Control coilovers and Comptech sway bars to keep his handling tight, while NSX-R reinforcement bars and a Carbing rear brace keep the body as stiff as possible. To help tame the notoriously twitchy rear end of the first-gen NSX chassis, Science of Speed non-compliance rear beam bushings, pivot clamps and toe links were added.
Perhaps one of the most impressive things about Siu's Acura NSX is the fact that the car is an unbelievable thirteen years old. With the new Cantrell Studios bodywork slathered on and the massively obvious MAX Racing wing stuck on the rear, this NSX is no longer a stealthy machine, but rather an in-your-face tire churning missile. Siu's accomplished goals include: updating the look of his car; adding power; increasing driving fun; and, most importantly, being able to spank all of his Euro-loving neighbors. Now his Lambo-driving neighbors just might try to retaliate with upgrades, too. No matter, the almighty Lamborghini still got its ass handed to it by a turbocharged update to one of Acura's finest creations.
