Up for sale is my 1997 Acura Integra project. I bought this car from a person I knew at work. The car had 376K on it when I bought it. Four months after I owned it, the transmission started grinding while idling and stopped. It sounds like a bad bearing, possibly the main input shaft. Then about a month later, the engine started to overheat. I stopped and poured more coolant in it to try and limp it home, but it kept pouring out the more I put in. I got it off the main highway before it gave up the ghost. The engine does not run. The engine and transmission are still in the car, but both of them need rebuilt/replaced, and are not operational. The body has very little rust, especially for being a northeast car, so I decided to keep it, strip it down, and build a road course track car out of it. After a long layoff over winter, a wife, kids and a mortgage, I decided to sell my project since I won't have the resources to build the car the way I want to for quite some time. I had a goal to get the completed car down to a curb weight of 2000 lbs., hence the reason for all the removal of various components. Included in the sale are four working halo headlights and a Seibon carbon fiber EVO hood. It has a crack in the rear corner on the passenger side, and one underneath in the middle near the back. I was told these could be epoxied. It also has a faded/scratched finish. My plans were to fix the cracks and then spray it whatever color I painted the rest of the car. The paint that is on the car now is a respray from around 2008, and it has a lot of scratches and flaws. I have removed the ABS system and front brake calipers and lines, the axles and both airbags, sunroof, obviously the entire interior, and too many other parts to list. I chipped all of the sound deadening off the floors by hand, and cut out any unnecessary metal brackets that were used to mount the airbags, spare tire and back seats. The back seats, spare tire and airbag system cannot be used in this car. There is some minor surface rust in the spare tire well, a small spot in the front driver side corner of the sunroof opening, a small spot on the rear wheel opening on the passenger side, and a little rust on the upper frame rails inside the front fenders. Please see the pictures. The undercarriage is very clean, floors are excellent. The hatch and doors are also in great shape, no rust. I have many parts in storage for the car, but what you see pictured is what you get. If you decide to buy the car, I will sell other pieces and parts for it very cheap, but this auction is for what you see pictured only! This is basically a rolling shell with a good body. Again, this is a NON-RUNNING, NON-DRIVING PROJECT/PARTS CAR WITH MANY MISSING PARTS. WHAT YOU SEE PICTURED IS WHAT YOU GET IN THE SALE. PICK UP ONLY. I have a clear title for the car in hand. The winning bidder will need to make a $100 deposit through PayPal at auctions end, the rest due in cash in person. Thanks for looking.

2022 Acura NSX Type S is revealed as the most powerful NSX ever

Fri, Aug 13 2021

The 2022 Acura NSX Type S is here, and it's the most impressive NSX the company has created. It now makes 600 horsepower and 492 pound-feet of torque, increases of 27 ponies and 16 pound-feet. But that's only the tip of the many little changes Acura has done to make this the ultimate NSX. Gaining that extra power involved quite a few little changes. The engine now gets larger turbochargers borrowed from the GT3 race car. The various intakes have been changed for improved cooling and airflow. The main front grille has been enlarged to allow more air into the radiators, and the outboard grilles now feature ducting for air curtains that help direct air to the side intakes. Those intakes feed more efficient intercoolers. The batteries even feature greater capacity. Power isn't the only area to receive upgrades. The Type S gets a carbon fiber roof for slightly less weight and a lower center of gravity. The aerodynamics have been tweaked with a new carbon fiber splitter, side skirts, rear spoiler and a GT3 race car-inspired rear diffuser, all of which help with downforce. The adjustable suspension, all-wheel-drive system and transmission have all been retuned for sportier driving. The latter shifts faster now and has a Rapid Downshift mode that allows you to shift to the lowest possible gear with one half-second paddle pull. Even the tires are stickier Pirelli P-Zeroes designed specifically for the NSX Type S. All of these improvements mean that the Type S is a full two seconds faster around Suzuka than a regular NSX. And if you need just that little bit more in the performance department, there is a Lightweight Package. It costs an extra $13,000 and adds carbon ceramic brakes, a carbon fiber engine cover and carbon fiber interior parts. Total weight savings is 58 pounds. Acura did pay some attention to styling, too. On top of the more aggressive aerodynamic bits, the grille has a new shape that has hints of the corporate pentagonal grille. The grille mesh is even steel instead of plastic now. The lights get dark lenses, and all the badging, mirrors and door handles are finished in black. Type S decals adorn the rear fenders. Inside, there's an Alcantara headliner and NSX and Type S logos embroidered in the seats and dashboard. One of the cars in the gallery at top is painted in an exclusive Gotham Gray matte metallic color, which will only be applied to 70 cars.

Hidden Integra Type R spends years behind secret barn wall

Thu, Apr 4 2019

There's no telling what lengths that person might go to to protect the valuable commodity. In the case of collector cars, some might take out extra insurance, some might store it away in climate-controlled facilities, and others, such as the man in this story, build a secret storage room behind a false wall in a barn. The stowed 2001 Acura Integra Type R even had posters to look at. Featured by BarnFinds.com, this Type R is for sale in Canada via eBay for C $39,999.99, or about $30,000. It's not one of the baby-fresh untouched examples that have worked their way onto auction stages recently, but it has an extremely unique past. As seen in the photos, this Type R was stored in its own room behind a particle board wall in a barn. The room had its own lighting, posters on the wall, and the owner also used an additional fabric cover over Championship White exterior. It has 82,000 miles on it, and a few scratches and dings on the car prove it's spent some time in the wild. The seller says it's "all original paint except maybe for the front bumper." But it's an original car with a clean title and red seats (the seller claims Acura sold only 250 examples with red seats in Canada). According to Fox News, interested buyers have offered up to $7,500 just for the seats, but the owner refused to part it out. Bid on the entire car at eBay.

Snapshots from Acura NSX prototype run at Mid-Ohio

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

Acura's achingly slow showing of the new, hybrid NSX saw yet another step yesterday, as we reported late last week. A powder-blue prototype ran ahead of the open-wheelers at the Honda Indy 200 at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. Why show the NSX Prototype at Mid-Ohio? Honda's Ohio research and development center, which has taken the lead on NSX development, is just 60 miles from the track. And as race sponsor, Honda must have figured it would give the spectators a glimpse of the new supercar it's been teasing for the better part of a decade.
With a planned launch in 2015 (special emphasis on the "planned" part, considering the NSX's history), the NSX Prototype shown here sports graphics that "speak to Acura's intention to go racing with the new NSX." That's great news for fans of endurance racing, although it remains to be seen when a motorsports program for the new NSX will get off the ground.
Take a look at the fresh gallery of images, and be sure to head over to our original Mid-Ohio post for the video footage of the NSX Prototype on track.
