Just took at Hyline's website and noticed Amo's NSX as a sold car. Interestingly it was in the Tokyo Auto Salon 2006. I have an old link to pics from that show, was wondering if this was once Amo's...the only other NSX there is pictured below.

Apparently it has 409 HP @ 7700 rpm and 347 lb-ft @ 5600 rpm from a 3.5L.

They seem to have realised that white suits the NSX better than High Vis' Orange :P

I don't get it. They buy a load of bits off the shelf, and bolt them on. So what have they done themselves?

I've probably made more bits or designed and had custom made, than they do. What makes them a 'tuning' company?

Load of pants.

But how many "tuning" companies make their own parts.

Someone has to put them together?

Know what you're saying... but then we don't know the full details. They may of tried 10 suspension kits, different ITB conversions which would cost the punter ££££s. The car features may be the result of hundreds of hours of testing, and is the 'perfect package.' Some people are willing to pay for something that is out of the box.

So the new black is white! They only specialisd in white cars only!? I quite like the NA02+ with the front spoiler & wider front wings, but not with those Lambos doors! What on god's petrol earth are those rads on the rear, where the diffuser or lower valance goes, they look damn ugly. Bad enough on front of Evo's cars, but on a rear of a supercar! :no:
