      Hehe, cheers guys

      A few little updates :-

      Fresh new set of Bridgestone RE002 getting fitted today. The rear tyres were stuffed and the front tyres were near new but the wrong size - he had 205/55 R15 fitted, whereas it needs 205/50 R15. The size difference affects the Traction Control, making it intervene too early as it thinks the rear wheel speed is too high compared to the front. Fortunately turning off the TCS is just a simple button press

      Unfortunately my Air-con regas was a failure - there is a broken/perished O-ring on one of the lines, which is a cheap fix but the line is difficult to get to. I'll have to get to that job later. It's great to know that the system works and blows cold air though!

      Ordered some SoS engine glass cover gas struts, as mine don't hold the glass up any more. The SoS ones also give better access to the engine bay as they allow the glass to open higher. Looking forward to getting these!

      Also ordered a set of braided brake lines as one of my lines has a slight weep. Will need front brake pads soon so I'll decided on a plan for the brakes.

          Request for photos of the NSX and the DC2R next to each other How much bigger is the NSX compared to the DC2R?
          You planning to upgrade the brakes since you are changing the brake lines and pads?

              After July sounds realistic for the Mega Cruise. Might need to bring both the DC2 and the NA1 somehow hehe...

              Yes, hopefully this weekend I can get some pics of the cars next to each other. The NSX is incredibly low, it seems like the roof only comes halfway up the glass on the DC2.

                      +1 to mega cruise!

                      So very very jealous, I can only hope to own such an amazing car one day.

                      I know it is down the track, but any ideas on what exhaust you will get? I already have my favourite NSX exhaust

                        Oh hot damn. That must've been a sweet deal you got going then. Can't wait to see it in real life

                            I really didn't think I could have one for at least another few years, I had to postpone some other projects to make it happen but I couldn't miss the opportunity since it is so hard to find manual NSXs. I mean we would all love a manual NA2 NSX but finding one for sale is next to impossible. I will keep my eye out... Or perhaps just build this one into my ideal car.

                            Not too sure actually! I don't want to make the car obnoxious but some exhaust note would be awesome. I'd really like to hear the Toda system. It looks sexual, lol
