NSX-R Suspension

 

Honda JDM NA2 NSX-R Coil-Over Suspension

 
Utilized on the Japan-only NSX-R model, the factory tuned NSX-R suspension is the result of a tremendous factory effort to create the best performance oriented suspension possible.

Using revised valving and spring rates exclusive to the 2002 model year NSX-R, the suspension uses specialized Showa dampers with high fluid capacity (external fluid reservoirs utilized). Although stiffer springs are used, the fast action, high fluid capacity, high quality Showa dampers are able to maintain a relatively smooth ride on rough pavement or track surfaces.

The suspension ride height is decreased for lowered center of gravity for improved stability during cornering.

On track testing is Japan has resulted in fantastic reviews from professional drivers and the media. The NSX-R was recently rated by the UK-based magazine Evo as the "sports car of the year" largely due to the suspension's balance and performance.
 
 

 
Please note that the full suspension and brakes are photographed above. The NSX-R coil over suspension kit includes the complete assembled dampers, springs, and upper mounts.
