Ahh... you're also one of those who base a car's performance on this silly
Japanese show eh? I guess you also believe that an AE86 Trueno can handily
beat a race-tuned Skyline GT-R too eh? And drifting is the fastest way
around a corner? Big Smile Have you ever notice there's no objective testings?
It's nothing but a made up show to entertain kids like you. Do yourself a
favour and stop watching this. Or atleast take it with a grain of salt.
The NSX is all about finesse. Drive it properly and you get rewarded. It
takes skills to get the best out of it much like most rwd sports cars. In
start contrast, AWD cars like the EVO and the WRX are very easy to drive
fast. Taking an NSX or even a 911 around a corner with perfect execution
is 10X better feeling than an AWD car going thru it 2X faster.

hey..boxerfour
have u ever test-driven or owned a NSX??
if not, what makes u so sure to say that the NSX is the best amongst the
jap sports car??

one more thing, what makes u fit enough to say those jap motoring show
which is filmed by Top Japan GT300 and GT500 drivers is for kids show??

perhaps u dont know much about cars dude...
ur wrx is simply the suckest among the 4WD...understeer severly in corner..
do u know what is ATTESA-ETS which used in skyline GTR?
let me tell u...it's an electronic differential that enable torque split
of 50:50 or even 0:100
what about HICAS four wheel steeering..do u know it?
i guess u dont know right coz u r simply bullshitting only here in this
AW..

for the NSX which the price is triple of an evo...but still cannot
outperform an evo in japan Tsukuba and Sugo circuit..
i dare to say it's not the best amongst the jap supersports~!

err.... check the New and Used car Forum to see my review of the NSX. Your
postings still reviews to me you that you get your knowledge from watching
these shows and I bet you learn car dynamics by playing PS2 right? I never
said once my WRX was the best. Neither did I say the NSX was best either.
IIRC it was you who blatantly posted that the NSX suck based on a show
designed that has no factual objective testing but rather go around
racetracks. Something that Japanese autoshows love to display. Wink

LOL. re-reading this q16de person's post reveals even more loopholes for
me to poke at.
As usual and typical of a Japanese ignorant car fanatic is to pull out the
venerable Skyline in all arguments. While I do not have a chance to sample
an R34 GTR I will not dare to sing the virtues or lack thereof with this
car. But uhmm.... Attessa AWD system. whoop-dee-doo. Currently all top AWD
japanese cars have 50:50 tq split and most not start off with 40:60 split
to give a better rwd bias. Subaru calls their's DCCD-A, Mitsu just call it
centre differential (regular name). I've seen an four wheel steering come
and go. it's another gimmick. The 4th generation Prelude had it. I think
even the nissan silvia had it. Now some big lumbering trucks are equipped
with it. Have to wonder why sports cars like a 911 turbo or the 360 modena
stradale never came with it.
Anyways all I am saying Best Motoring is best to watch with a grain of
salt. Otherwise you'd also start to believe that drifting is the fastest
way around a corner too huh? Big Smile

Heh, Boxer4's rite! serious racers actually take them off. Mitsi calls
theirs ACD (Active Center Diff) and Super ACD on the latest e8. The racers
all go for the RS versions, w/out these stuff. AYC, ACDs n stuff, they're
good for ornery rd users (like me Smile ), but those who do track days
prefer their cars w/out.
