Push it straight forward. Any side motion, you get 5th. That's why so many have crunched 5th gear synchros. Push it straight forward.....let the gate pull you to 3rd. Open palm shift, 2-3 works best. Hard to train but that's how you keep out of trouble. Been my experience. Well, also I put a short shifter on it, and increased the gate bias. And bent the new shifter towards me.... Still have to palm it forward.... I agree though.
@@fd797 True but the 5th gen synchro was definitely flawed though. Used to have a modded 93 R1 myself from '98-'13 until i just got tired of dealing with working on cars. Loved my FD though.
@@CL-rm6sb I can't agree. I thought I read somewhere the 94 and later had synchro improvements. Unsure if true. My 93 5th went out. I had buzzed it a few times with a 2-5 shift - who knows how many it had besides me (80k on it when I bought it...).

@@breaker6501 I don't think I'd really agree with that. The NSX was a full aluminum body. That was a pretty pricey and novel way to save weight at the time in a production car.

The FD did end up slightly lighter overall, and is my preferred car of the two (I've got two of them) but the NSX was made with a pretty similar philosophy. Gordon Murray used it to benchmark the McLaren F1, and no one care more about weight savings than he does.

We specialize in Honda J-Series engines, with our 06' Accord making 560whp 6spd mt on a Custom 6968 Turbo setup. The NSX engine is very similar but not the same by any means (SOHC vs DOHC, titanium rods in NSX etc)...some other small changes, the NSX engine is superior but the Jseries at least with our parts can do wonders and lots of people are swapping their NSX with the J due to availability and the aftermarket growing 🤙

There was always an Acura NSX displayed on the hill by an Acura dealership by my house growing up. They'd rotate them as they sold and newer models came in. I've always dreamed of owning one. IDK why but childhood me thought the side vents were SO COOL. Then teenage me wanted a Supra lol.
I just recently saw a bone stock MK4 Supra straight off the boat from Japan. It was white with black accents and looked so fucking magnificent. Not a single aftermarket part. So dope.

This should've been titled "Keisuke Takahashi vs. Go Hojo"
Was always a fan of Hojos set up.
It's so rare to see a NSX on it's factory wheels..that says a lot to how Vin takes care of it, just looks superb as it sits right now.
the want for a stock RX7 is so high. Damn it.
Ok now this is great stuff, can you line up all the stock JDM cars of the 90s to see who's fastest, you'll need a leader board like top gear
