wow hard to believe that car is 21 years old. Freakout!
Weird that Dan mentions the braking as a weakness, I drove a supercharged version several times in the early 2000’s and I very much recall the brakes being astounding.
Maybe they were upgrades…
It must have been upgraded since there never was a supercharged version from the factory. Comptech made/makes a SC kit for the NSX.
^He was referring to the brakes as possibly being upgraded, not the supercharger.
I just saw some Pulp Fiction on HBO yesterday. That was Mr. Wolf’s car.
Didn’t the NSX have a problem with excessive tire wear?
With it’s nice Potenza’s? Doubtful.
Or, buy new tires.
No. It was a to aggressive alignment that wore the tires fast. Specifically to much toe in.

There are also several non-government websites that offer the same service free
of charge. Jean Scheid, a Ford dealer explains it all with some great tips for
consumers. This does happen — the threat of not being able to use the car does make the car payment a higher priority for the purchaser.
