Stupid.

Why waste a perfectly good NSX and turn it into what everyone with a brain will instantly recognize as a conversion.

You can still see the NSX lines in the roof. It doesn't look like an F50 at all.

And unless they swapped the 6.5 liter V-12 in there, it's still an NSX at heart. Not nearly as fast as an F50.

And I love that the finished product still has "NSX" right next to the door handles. :rofl:

Just goes to show that money doesn't buy class.

[snowboard]

thats kinda cool.. but woulda have been so much cooler if it was a totally custom one off kit... of there own design..

[carter_prelude]

props to them for the work. But im not really a fan of it, or any other kit cars really.

Actually i DO like one kit car...thats the K1 Attack, thats about it.

somebody is on the pessimistic side. lol thats not stupid, its pretty cool if your not too caught up in the fact that "its not real so its dumb"
if they got the money, then why not. and they probably didnt have a goal to make it as fast as an F50, just to look like it. good job to them though, thats pimp.

[kevie88]

Repost.. This thing is an abomination.


Some people's kids...

[Kona9]

I will side with two people here.

95eagleAWD- NSX FTW allllllllllllll the way!!!!!

carter_prelude- K1 attack is the coolest kit car available IMO. I will build one. Hopefully soon!!!!! Thats a kit car I really dont care what peoples oppinions are. It fuckin ROCKS!!

[euro_racer]

haha thats pretty damn cool as far as i can see, takes alot of talent and time to do that. oh and those wheels :drool: ...can anybody please post some pics of the final product for me? all i can see is the damn red X

[SilverBoost]

Regardless of what you think of the conversion (personally not a fan) that shop is one hell of a fiberglass custom fabricator. That fab work is amazing.

Relax buddy....it just shows some skill. I agree with the wasting the NSX thing...but seriously...that involves some mad skills. Must of been a project, and the NSX is probably the closest thing to an F50. You honestly think that doesn't look good from what it started out to be? Sure it's the slower than the real thing....but do you have the skills to do that? Besides think about all the ppl doing custom conversions out there. Take this lude for an example

http://www.calgarystreetrides.ca/images/imports/purpleprelude/46_12_sb.jpg

Kay...Skyline tail lights....but it's still a prelude at heart! Sure it may not look like the greatest thing...but it's definitely different. I mean if you got the skill to do something like this....then why make it go to waste?

[n1zm0]

i think i like the little Honda cube van and its rims in the background better :D

lotsa fabrication hours put in tho!

They should have finished it and put an F50 roof on it. You can see "NSX" on the door handles.

I'm not knocking the fab. It's nicely done. I just said it's a waste of a perfectly good car.

[Billy]

That takes a lot of skills and time so props for that. but yea such a nice NSX though...darn...

[thesmackdown]

Haven't you guys ever seen the civic turned skyline? it was in some magazine a couple years back where this guy fitted an R34 skyline to his civic, people do many wierd things.

[topmade]

LOL... I like the comparision with the prelude with skyline lights...I know what you mean though.

Anyhow, that thing looks awesome. Hell of a lot better then those Fiero kits that's for sure.

[gp36912]

nice fab work. the tail end hangs a little too far out just like all kit cars, esp the fiero ones. and the front is just slightly long also.but otherwise its damn good fab work :D

[spyce]

I dont mind it. To each their own. I think it turned out pretty good! :thumbsup:

[Mikey_008]

I guess if you have the time and money...then you're capable to do anything with any car!

[Mitsu3000gt]

That is instantly recognizable as not a ferrari, but the bodywork is exceptional. Also, in the beginning pictures, the wing on the NSX looks atrocious in my opinion and completely out of place.

[ICEBERG]

Why..Why.. Poor NSX.:cry:


Good try though.:)

[dino_martini]

While I hate it when people try and fake a Ferrari. This is actually not a bad looking car. I kind of like it. Nismo.. word on the Honda Cube Van..that thing is pimp.

[shadowz]

super old that was like 4 years ago

I just don't get kit cars/kit conversions. It seems that we as a society have an irrational need to try to make ourselves look more succesful and rich than we truly are. From Folex watches to genuine imitation LV handbags, I just don't see the rationality. Rage2's "Chinese guys living strapped to make the payments on their entry level Benz in an attempt to look rich" nails it down to a "T". I will never understand.

/OT ramble

Props to the work though

[k98303]

wow both of them look gd

[acura_el]

wow, that takes skill. the front looks really nice, the back could use some work, it looks a little blocky...really diggin the deep dish :drool:

i love the previa tho in the background, makes me want a minivan :bigpimp:

[riced]

speaking about *insert car* converting to skylines.
in a previous magazine of modified mag i saw at wal mart, there was a dude that changed his nissan silvia into a skyline.
ordered the front headlights and bumper along with the tails and the rear bumper and side skirts.
looked nice but the all of the sudden they take a pic of his camber and it sucked ass. lol

...dont know why some of the pics arent working :banghead:

i have this issue and i thought it was a really well done conversion :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[BlueFrenzy]

you'd have to admit that's a lot of effort and workmanship is pretty good. What it started as (NSX) was pretty sweet, but the final product is meh.

[Dayclone]

Crazy asians.... lol!!!

That's a lot of work but comeon... waste of a perfectly fine NSX.

It has nothing to do with the skill. It's high quality work. It's stupid though. This is as low as a Fiero kit car. I bet someone's gonna say "Well an NSX is teh better than a Fiero!" because the NSX has joined the Skyline on the import internet forum bandwagon of cars you have to love. Neither a Fiero nor an NSX is a Ferrari.

I was also unaware a car with a 500hp V12 bolted into the carbon fiber monocoque chassis is 'very close' to a car with a 280hp V6 aluminum space frame.

That Prelude is horrendous.

[95EagleAWD]

The NSX has joined the bandwagon?

Since when?

Nobody likes them. They're slow, expensive and generally seen as the shit of exotic cars.

The NSX is better than Ferrari's of it's time. In the 90's, Ferrari's were temperamental, hard to maintain machines. Honda turned the exotic world on it's head with the NSX and arguably made Ferrari produce such machines as the F355, 360 and F430. Lamborghini still hasn't caught up.

Modern (I mean 360s and up) are reliable. Anything else.... not really. You can drive them, but it's expensive.

I'll take my NSX over a 348 any day. I like being able to drive mine without worry of service every 5000 miles.

hahaha you and your oddysey's kevin..


why couldnt they just have painted that nsx black... it would look alot nicer haha but the kit is done very well, i prefer nsx over a ferrari wannabe though

[Supa Dexta]

Speaking of which, where did turbominivan ever go? did he get banned?

[CarbonCopy]

That takes alot of skill, but it would have been cooler if they didn't waste one of hondas pride and joys in the process.

Woulda been sweet if they built it on something really shitty, like a 67 beetle or something.

[adidas]

props for originality but not something i would do to a already decent lookin car!

You don' t think it involves skill? Without skill, then you wouldn't have high quality work! Whatever material they used to "shape" the body...the paint job...good quality work which involves a bit of skill to master! Can you do that?

Sure it's not the real thing to a Ferrari...but like all conversions that ppl do to there car...just shows that anything is possible now a days!

[Mikey_008]

And that Lude is not the best example, but it was the only thing i could search up in a short period of time!
