Pretty cool build.

[ICD]

Looks like some mad skills went into making it happen. When are u going to build something crazy like that

[theAngryMarmot]

when I get enough money haha. I have built some pretty cool stuff, just none of it was mine lol.

I will update my photo thread later with some cars I built.

[il0v3mys5]

sick build blog it needs moar pics though

[theAngryMarmot]

Started posting some of my projects in my photo thead in the photography section. just for you ICD ;)

[phxz6]

Is the chassis made of aluminum?

[michalo187]

Pretty bad ass. I wish I could fabricate some stuff like that and I wish I had a NSX

[SlowLS]

i dont think i'd rip apart a NSX if i had one just to drop in a LS7, if they wanted a LS&, why not drop it in a car not as rare to find? like a RX7, 240sx? just saying

[INTEGRA DC2]

wow such a nice build and such nice work being done

[theAngryMarmot]

There are not that many cheap mid engine cars on the market. Considering the price of a beatup NSX, that is the cheapest mid engine platform you can find that would accomodate this swap.

I have seen DeTomasa Panteras cut up to put Hemis into so this doesnt really bother me too much.

[redline8500]

thats what it needed from the factory

[bbonds]

I have been following this build for awhile on NSXPrime, I have worked on the NSX for over 11 years, It is a hand built car from Japan and he chopped it up to put a domestic Engine in it, kinda makes me sick. Ya he has mad welding skills and can fabricate like no body's buisness but in the end it will be nothing like an NSX anymore. I run into these types of guys all the time they buy the NSX and still have dreams of when they owned a Corvett or a Mustang back in the day, what they don't understand is the NSX is not built for just speed it handles better than most of the newer cars on the road today. I give the guy props but I don't really give a crap about an LS7 Engine, good luck with the oil leaks:(

[theAngryMarmot]

I am going to have to respectfully disagree here. the LS series engines are fantastic. I would venture to say that the LS7 is just as good of an engine as the NSX engine. The LS7 may have pushrods, and only one camshaft, but technically speaking it is a very advanced engine.

The NSX chassis is more than capable of handling the extra power and torque, and since the two engines have similiar characteristics I would say that this is a fantastic concept. The weight difference would also be very small, if any.

I don't forsee the owner harking back to the muscle car days, I would be willing to bet the owner was frustrated with the lack of power, parts, and potential per dollar that the original NSX motor provided.

Why not combine a world class chassis with a world class (yes the LS7 engines are world class, look at their technology/race history) engine? Best of both worlds IMO.

I have driven quite a few Z06s, and in anger. The 405hp and the 505hp Z06s are fantastic, and the behavior, power, and sound of the LS7 engines is amazing.

If a LS7 swapped car with basic suspension mods happened across a Stock engined NSX with basic suspension mods, on the race track, the LS7 would slaughter the v6 NSX. If the LS7 car happened across a modded (to similiar output) V6 NSX, my well educated money would still be with the LS7 due to it's superior "power under the curve."

After doing some reseach it turns out that a C32B weighs in at roughly 450 lbs. A LS7 weighs in at roughly 460lbs
So weight distribution should/would be the same.

I will revist the specs of the LS7 :

427 Cubic Inches
505 horsepower @ 6200 rpm
475 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4800 rpm
7000-rpm redline
Forged steel crankshaft with 101.6-mm (4-inch) stroke
Titanium connecting rods
Cast aluminum flat-top pistons
Racing-derived CNC-ported aluminum cylinder heads with titanium intake valves and sodium-filled exhaust valves
Dry-sump oiling system
11.0:1 compression ratio
Camshaft with 15-mm (.591-inch) lift

Pretty high tech engine.

Compare to the later gen NSX motor :
195 Cubic Inch
SAE Net Horsepower @ RPM: 290 @ 7100
SAE Net Torque @ RPM: 224 @ 5500
DOHC
Iron coated aluminum pistons
Forged Steel Crankshaft
Titanium Connecting Rods

Still , very advanced.


Granted the C32 has some neat features, But as far as technology and capability goes, I would have to give the nod to the LS7, for its wet-sump, sodium filled ex valves, and all the titanium parts (rods, in valves, pushrods, etc) I know not many people will agree with me here, since this is a honda forum, however I tend to look at things without biased because of what I do. That and in various race series the LS7 and its variants have proved victorious over much more "advanced" DOHC engines.

[tricken]

I would agree with paul the nsx is amzing platform but lack of affordable parts to make the motor more powerful is always been an issue this solves that and also allows the owner to get more if he or she feels that they need it with a blower type setup

[honduh_head]

omg what a SICK set up... best of both worlds is right paul.

[The Punisher]

Eh, thats what snails are for.

Very cool none-the-less.

[theAngryMarmot]

Yes a twin turbo LS7 would be even better ;)

it would be fast/fun to drive but i couldnt get over the sound of rednecks fucking each other right behind my head. Eewww gross.
i personally love high-strung, high class motors that sing soulfully to 10k+ otherwise i would drive a camaro and have sex with women addicted to methamphetamines.
LSx motors are nothing more than a big hammer and not my style for the NSX

[gunsup0331]

that being said, 290hp is a babyfart compared to what that chassis deserves.

lol wow.

you realize lsx motors are prolly the most widely used motors in the world right? considering they're in cars, trucks, sand rails, boats, replica cars, yadda yadda yadda. much more useful than the v6 POS that came in the NSX. that chassis was much more deserving of something better.

Spoken like someone who generally has no Idea what they are talking about. No offense.

Have you ever head a LS7 at full song, 7k RPM? It sounds better than 90% of engines made. Have fun with the upkeep of your 10k rpm motor, I will take 7k rpm of factory, reliable, high hp. I have driven an LS7 Z06 @ the track. It was amazing. I have driven a C5 Z06 at the track, it sounded and went better than 90% percent of the cars there, and it was stock other than cage, exhaust, wheels and tires.

It make "Only" make 505 hp from 7 liters, but it can do it all day long, day in and day out, without even breaking a sweat. It does not need a million revs to do the job. Not to mention, get better heads, cam, headers, exhaust and watch that 505hp jump significantly without the perils of adding forced inducion, large compression increase, etc.

A engine that makes 505hp @ 6800 rpm is going to last longer, be more reliable, and easier to drive than one that makes 505hp @ 10k rpms. And besides, who owns a street car that goes to 10k anyways? The powerband of a smaller displacement motor at 10k rpm would be drastically worse than that of something like a LS7 making the same power. That is the trade-off most of the time. Imagine the piston speed, rod stress, and valvetrain requirements of a 10k rpm motor. Not something I want to run in a street car, or any car really.

The LS7 is a "High Class" motor. It is a world class motor. Maybe your perceptions need to be raised. The motor they use in the C6-R race cars are remarkably similiar (makes less power even!) to the street engine. The LS7 has won multiple 24hour races, 12 hour races, sports car races, etc. It is a true Champion. There is a reason why most "Production" race cars don't run high strung, picky, persnickity engines.

LS7s are a big hammer, and they have hammered down just about every competition they have come across in the racing world.

But to each their own, I suppose :)

[The Punisher]

Have you guys seen the LS series engines with a Honda based head on them? its fantastic. Trying to find the writeup

[gunsup0331]

ls7 just doesnt impress me thats all

i dont really like the sounds they make either; granted i havent heard many/any that have been fully built.

they are a great motor just not my type. bTW making something out of titanium doesnt make it well engineered or impressive, it just makes it stronger and more expensive. The lsx series of motors and the small block chevy saga ingeneral is a testament to the mantra "if it aint broke...."
little emprovements over time from 1956 to the present have brought the Lsx what it is.
Its like a portable honda generator: it works really well but it doesnt make me wet ya know?
i know less about the NSX v6 than about chevy v8s so i wont even compare the two.
I just know when i build my NSX it will be pushed by something a little more creative than a Chevy.

[theAngryMarmot]

Comparing the original sbc to a ls series motors is apples and oranges. There were quite a few significant design changes. The only thing that is the same is the general layout, OHV, V8. The LS series of engines were a "Clean Sheet" design, IE they did not carry over anything from the "standard sbc" Granted the LS moniker goes back to the days of the muscle car ( IE LS6 chevelle) but they bear nothing in common with the newer generation small blocks.

Making things out of titanium does make it well engineered. Titanium is a completely different metal to work with, you cannot use the same tooling, procedures, etc. Its a learning curve. The reason GM chose to use Titanium in the LS7 is to increase reliability, durability, and light weight. The fact that they were willing to do this in a production car is impressive. There are no other cars with this kind of engineering in its price range. I am not a big GM fan (other than Z06s) but my hat is off to them for making a world class, world beating engine.

Every LS7 is also hand built. If GM put the level of engineering and quality that it does into the LS7 / LS9 then it would be a completely different car company. I have visited the Corvette Museum three times years ago, and I will say they build with pride there, unlike the other GM assembly plants.

I would garantee if you had the chance to drive a Z06, your mind would change instantly. I never payed attention to corvettes till I drove a Z06, then everything changed.

"The LS7.R engine is a variation of the LS7 used in the highly successful C6.R (http://www.azht.net/wiki/Chevrolet_Corvette_C6.R) American Le Mans Series (http://www.azht.net/wiki/American_Le_Mans_Series) racecar. It was crowned as Global Motorsport Engine of the Year by a jury of 50 race engine engineers on the Professional Motorsport World Expo (http://www.azht.net/w/index.php?title=Professional_Motorsport_World_Expo&action=edit&redlink=1) 2006 in Cologne (http://www.azht.net/wiki/Cologne), Germany (http://www.azht.net/wiki/Germany)"

You must be really hard to impress ;)

Man I hope no one starts a thread about Alfa twincams or chevy 409s, I am tired of typing lol.

[gunsup0331]

damn i was under the impression the LS series was sbc based

thx for learnin me some shit

[gunsup0331]

Didnt GM make a ZR1 with DOHC in the late 90's? theres a cutaway of one at school, uber sickness but i would NOT want to maintain that monstrosity

[theAngryMarmot]

NP, glad to help! Ive been lucky with all the stuff I have been involved with, i dont mind shaaring the info!

You are correct, in the early 90s GM made, in conjunction with lotus, a DOHC V8 (349 CI) 32 valve engine. It is an AWESOME engine. I have driven quite a few ZR1s, as well as the only car GM every put the LS5 into that was not a vette, and that was a show car camaro (I have pics)

It is not as bad as you think to work on, its just a bit different. It also had 16 fuel injectors. They make roughly 400hp @ like 6800rpm or so, and sound awesome. The motors were co designed by lotus, and assembled by Mercury Marine persons haha. They are extremely reliable as well. I think GM set a endurance record (175mph for 24 hours non stop) with this motor. Lotus also helped out with a few other things in the car. I would love to own a ZR1, I think I would rather have a 90 model than a 2009 ZR1 haha. They only made about 7000 of them.

I drove a modded (Chip, exhaust, custom headers, gears, slick) vette that was in the 11s consistantly.

Very cool motor, just dont confuse the LT5 that this motor is, with the older 70s chevelle LS5.

I found the record :





Although the ZR-1 was extremely quick (0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds, and onto 180+ mph), the huge performance of the LT5 engine was matched by its robustness. As evidence of this, a stock ZR-1 set a number of international and world records at a test track in Fort Stockton, Texas (http://www.azht.net/wiki/Fort_Stockton,_Texas) on March 1, 1990, verified by the FIA (Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (http://www.azht.net/wiki/F%C3%A9d%C3%A9ration_Internationale_de_l%27Automob ile)), including seven new international records:

100 miles (160 km) at 175.600 mph (282.601 km/h)
500 miles (800 km) at 175.503 mph (282.445 km/h)
1,000 miles (1,600 km) at 174.428 mph (280.715 km/h)
5,000 km (3,100 mi) at 175.710 mph (282.778 km/h) (World Record)[citation needed (http://www.azht.net/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)]
5,000 miles (8,000 km) at 173.791 mph (279.690 km/h) (World Record)
12 Hours Endurance at 175.523 mph (282.477 km/h)
24 Hours Endurance at 175.885 mph (283.059 km/h) for 4,221.256 miles (6,793.453 km) (World Record)[

It's not really going to be a NSX anymore after this guy is finished, he completely chopped the shit out of the chasis, 2nd there are a ton of aftermarket eng. mods for the NSX eng. take a look at the all the turbo and supercharger setups that are available. Like I said before the NSX was not just built for alot of HP's it was built for the handling, if you have ever driven one on the race track you would understand that. I can appreciate your expertise in this subject but you have vary little experience with the Honda/Acura Engineering and understanding of what and why they build the cars that they do. I know this is black and white for most of us, some love the domestic's and others do not, My point was when this LS7 project is finished it will not be much if at all a NSX anymore the chasis is chopped up and well as the front and rear sub frames. By the way I have looked through the cars that you have built and all I can say is wow you are the man when it comes to the domestics, keep up the good work I mean no disrespect in this thread to you or anybody else.

Slow your roll kiddo lol.

First and foremost, I have more track experience than 90 percent of the people on here. I don't play "kid racer" or "canyon king" like alot of people. I can walk my talk, even though I rarely talk it. I have been competitively driving since I was 16. I have owned cars since I was 14. I have been winning autocrosses and time trails since I was 17. So I have a ton of track experience.I am a quiet guy, I dont care if people know what I have done. The photos I post in my thread are only the tip of the iceberg, and I have never posted them anywhere else. Most are not even on my personal website.

Second, I may post alot of muscle cars stuff, but that is just because I have not gotten to all the Italian, and Japanese stuff yet. I have hundreds of thousands of build pics. I have built Hondas, quite a few. I have built miatas (and owned 6,) I have ran/built Z06s, so I know all about handling. And I have built/prepped/and "dialed in" about every type of street car based track car you can shake a stick at. I understand Honda's engineering, and I understand the direction they took with the NSX. I know more about working suspension, setup, and handling than most people. I have studied, leaned, been taught, and applied my working knowledge to a variety of sucessful track cars, both vintage and newer. I am not bragging by any means, however assuming someone who "is the man at domestics" is not "the man" when it comes to import cars, is a flawed logic. The same engineering that applies to setting up something like a vintage trans-am car applies to a NSX, it applies to a civic, it applies to a miata. The theories, physics, etc are all the same, just the way it is implemented is different.

High Horsepower and Handling can co-exist. Especially when you combine a chassis that can handle power (like the NSX) with an engine that may be larger, but weights the same, or less. I know a guy who used to have a NSX race car, he ran it in about 6 events a year, and he won quite a few "Open Track Challenges" with the car. His biggest complaint?

The engine. He was constantly fighting with getting HP out of it that was reliable. So yes, they make turbos/superchargers. He ran a supercharger, and all the supporting mods. But unfortunately the money my friend spent to get his power, which was alot less than 505hp, BTW, he could have done this swap, and had no problems.

The problem with an NSX v6 making 500hp is that it requires forced induction. When you add forced induction, you add heat, and complexity, and the number of factors that can go wrong, especially on a race track, is increased. Manifolds can crack, intercoolers can get heat soaked, radiators cannot keep up, etc etc etc. Look at the Redline Time attack series. How many NSXs do you see in there? A couple. The reason why? Because building a track car out of a NSX is not cheap. Getting power out of the C32b, is not cheap. A engine swap is the perfect answer.

Swapping in a motor that makes 500hp reliably, and in stock form, is the ultimate answer. It is even better when the motor weighs the same, or less, than the stock motor. This way you do not upset the balance of the car, or the center of gravity if the engine does not sit higher.

If you look at the build pictures, you will notice a few things:

A. The engine does not appear to be higher than the stock one, so the center of gravity is the same. The LS7 also is of the same weight as the C32b, so the weight distro will be the same. If it is any different because of the transmission is mounted further back, due to the LS7 being mounted longitudinal, it will not be enough to disturb the balance, since the Porsche tranny is not that heavy.

B. Yes, he is modifying the suspension a bit. However I do not get where you come to the conclusion that he is destroying the car's handling. Judging by the looks of the suspension work he has done, as well as the chassis work, it is my expert opinion this guy knows how to make a car handle. Go to the suspension page and look at the fabbed parts, and the layout. It is well designed so far. OEM is not always the best my friend, even on a car like the NSX things are built to a budget, or a spec. When you can exceed the budget, and up the spec, then you need to do the same with the suspension, and this man is doing it. OEM engineering is not the law. All "stock" suspensions can be improved.

I undestand the sentiment about swapping a GM motor into an NSX, I used to cringe when I seen someone do the same with a RX-7, or a Porsche. But you have too look beyond that and look at the pure technical, and engineering side of the swap. IF this guy was just going nuts with a sawzall, then I would agree with you. But since this guy blatantly knows what he is doing, you are wrong.

This is not a "Billy bob" swap, obviously.This car is the NSX that Honda Should have made. a mid engine V8 NSX.

" I mean no disrespect in this thread to you or anybody else"

No worries dude.

[bbonds]

cool man, I will keep my comments to myself I am an Acura Master Tech in Denver I would say Im a die hard import fan after years of working on them so I understand the engineering behind the Engine, Suspension, and electronics. I can appreciate the good information you have provided in this topic, I don't know if I will ever change my mind though:wave1:

[theAngryMarmot]

Haha no worries. I am lucky enough to be on both sides, import/domestic/euro all the time, so I have no brand loyalties. Opinions are what makes the car world go round.

You should get on NSX prime, there are a hell of alot more NSX builds on there, if for anything it's cool to see what crazy ass ideas some of these guys come up with.

I will check it out. I nearly bought a NSX many years ago that was in a fenderbender. I regret not doing it, but who knows what it would have ended up with engine/powertrain wise with me as the owner lol.

I love me some challengers. The E body cars were constructed like crap (interior build was horrible) but with the Hemi or a 440 they were awesome. At least the powertrains were fantastic. At least you were usually going fast enough not to notice what fell off. I am also a huge fan of the T/A and AAR challenger/cudas I have restored/worked on 5 or 6. the 6pack/340 combo was a great one, and the side exhaust sounded great.

I like the b-bodies, stuffing a 440 into a little dart was madness

[theAngryMarmot]

the B bodies (charger, roadrunner GTX, etc) were great, I restored a 69 roadrunner hemi,and a few others. I have a ton of pics of an A12 package "Lift off" hood roadrunner that was awesome. I used to upkeep it. They made two 1970 hemi coronet convertibles, they were pretty awesome. I dont some work on of them, really ugly, but it grew on me.

the A body cars were neat, I know a guy who has a clean, papered, documented M-Code 440 dart now. And I have driven a real Mr. Norms 440 Dart that is owned by a collector friend, the car was featured on Muscle Car TV a few years ago (Colin is their fav source for muscle cars lol) A big block A-body was pretty crazy, and they didnt handle all that bad either.
