< NSX successor >
We are now focused on the development of a new model to succeed the NSX for a new era. We would like to debut a new super sports car equipped with a V10 engine in 3 to 4 years. Please look forward to seeing the NSX successor.

is this a new trend?
i heard that the new/next supra will also be V10

[lightweight]

A v8 is too common market-wise, a V12 too up-market, so more and more slot in a v10. The F1 thing helps also a lot

i heard it will be a hybrid V8 (supra)still a Japanese V10! thats practically unheard of!

[Dino Scuderia]

The next 3 to 4 years! What are they waiting on?

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

The next 3 to 4 years! What are they waiting on?
the skyline maybe? next generation evo and STi (both have to be all new)
EDIT:maybe mazdas RX-7 if they go through witht it

[Niko_Fx]

They're giving Niko a chance to have the payment ready :D

Sounds like they're into something really big, can't wait to see it... Where's my DeLorean when I need it? :)

[F1_Master]

:p @ Niko.

This is good news. Finally, maybe this car will actually be worth that hefty price.

that was what was mentioned about the supra aswell.

a hybrid supra would def be cool!

If you wanna be in the current exotic car wars, a V6 just doesn't cut it any more :)

I can just hear Niko talking to his fiancé: "Honey, you know that house we were gonna buy? Slight change of plans."

Ohhh! You betcha!! hehehe :D

[KnifeEdge_2K1]

number of cylinders dont mean jack shit people

all it affects is balance and packaging, a 6 litre v12 will produce no more power then a 6 litre v6, but the v6 wont be as balanced or smooth

really no offense or anything but arent you forgetting, umm, what was it? oh yeah, THE WHOLE PORSCHE 911 RANGE?

[KnifeEdge_2K1]

i dont know how they're gonna get a v10 to be mounted transversely tho as they do the v6 in the current nsx

either they mount longitudaly (which would make the whole car alot longer) or its a transverse engine longitudal tranny like in the f355

the current nsx's setup i think is perfect, maybe supercharge or get a bigger displacement v6 (60 degrees for optimum ballance)

[KnifeEdge_2K1]

lol, thats funny man :D

but porsche runs flat 6s not v6s, tiny technicality

Current F1 blocks are TINY.
You could fit one in the space taken up by many I4s :)

[Dino Scuderia]

Their old F1 cars had tiny V12's transverse mounted. The new NSX will prolly be 3.0 litres and will rev to 15,000rpms. Honda's too conservative to make a large displacement 200mph car, it just isn't like them.

i can dig an Road leagal F1 engine with a max 15000 redline anyway :D

Don't understand what you said, can you better explain? :)

[Dino Scuderia]

my bad man! i was fixing my post when you said that^ :o i will delete this soon

Oh, gotcha.

[KnifeEdge_2K1]

but those are 3 L v10s, when have you seen a 3 L v10 on the road ??

yeah the v10 would be about the same length as a 1.5 L 5 cylinder inline, but again, when have you seen a 1.5L inline 5??

[KnifeEdge_2K1]

they cant use the F1 engine on a road car, not even a detuned one for more torque

the thing has such a low stroke itll take off slower then an old man on roller skates

their current config is good, maybe a v8 or just up the displacement and a supercharger for more power, their current manufacturing techniques with aluminum is also ancient, an ASF would be good, extruded aluminum instead of stamped aluminum for more strength and save weight at some areas

the most important thing for them to do is break outta the current misconceptions bout the nsx, and 280 horses (though enough to rival cars with 50% more power and cost twice as much) is just not reassuring enough to buyers, in the days where you get 250 hp in minivans and runround sedans you'll need atleast 400 before people take you seriously

[Spastik_Roach]

I wonder if it will have V-Tec....V-tec in a v10 should be rather interesting.

[P4g4nite]

The new NSX is currently known as the HSC concept, it is currently configured with a 235Kw 3.L V6, but it looks horn.
The new Supra is not called a supra, it will have a high output V8 of about 4.5-5L with more than 300Kw ...curently.
Who knows what they will turn out like by the production date.

[whiteballz]

HSC was canceled months ago.

now if only MY HSC would be canceled next year..

that was japanese industry wise agreement, which has now been removed, so its a fair bet it'll be more than that, as it will need to be when nissan FINALLY makes a new GTR

[Acura/subarufan]

An NSX Sucessor with a V10 huh? Sounds good. Should smoke the competition considering the current nsx already does with a v6.

[P4g4nite]

DAMMIT!

I liked that car!

[deffenbaugh03]

Volvo's have 2.5L inline-5's so it wouldnt be a problem would it?

[SoSmoofCPT]

the skyline maybe? next generation evo and STi (both have to be all new)
EDIT:maybe mazdas RX-7 if they go through witht it

will that GTR Concept be coming out as planned in 2007??

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

as far as I know yes, also the year i get my learner's permit :D

[KnifeEdge_2K1]

Volvo's have 2.5L inline-5's so it wouldnt be a problem would it?

but 3L v10s

have you seen a 1.5L inline 5 ??

[P4g4nite]

No, but what would the problem be?

If you can build Inline5's you can make a it whatever size you want.

I wouldn't want one, I need torque, not an unusable 15K rev limit in a car.

[Matra et Alpine]

The Quattro E2's were pushing 450 foot pounds out of a 2.1 liter inline 5 engine in GroupB rallies :)
What was it you wanted ?
:D

Turbo.


Do you think a factory Honda is going to come turbocharged?

[ZeTurbo]

I remember hearing honde talking of th next gen. NSX when i was in grade 11 (sec 5). that was over 2 years ago.
WTF takes so long for a company such has honda tu build a freaking Supercar?????

[Blue Supra]

The honda HSC concept...

Pity.

thats what i thought when i first saw it....it looks MUCH better than the NSX

[faster345]

They've been talking about the next-gen NSX since I sold mine back in 1996! It was supposed to have a V8, along with the next-gen Legend. Nothing happened and we're still waiting for something more than a V6 from Honda. Cheers.

[P4g4nite]

Apparantly the HSC is a go again.

Honda got jealous over the hype surrounding the 2007 Skyline and that Toyota/Lexus thing....

[2ndclasscitizen]

Cool, that thing looks awesome

[Cadillac Imaj]

its ought to be a great car!!!

[fa22_raptor]

Wheels are too shineeeeeyyyyyyyy. They're hurting my eyeeeees!

[P4g4nite]

Bollocks, a concept car can NEVER be too shiny.

Excuse me just for a moment...need to change my pants.

[kennyknoxville]

i heard something about the HSC being a hybrid also. if they ever decide to release it i hope it doesnt come with those chrome wheels

[Zytek_Fan]

It is rumored that the HSC is the replacement for the NSX

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

It is rumored that the HSC is the replacement for the NSX
are you like that all the time or did this hit you only after the
hsc was relesed more than a year ago?

[Esperante]

Wheels are too shineeeeeyyyyyyyy. They're hurting my eyeeeees!
What do you mean? They're just highly polished alloys, they're not even chrome!

[kigango123]

i guess the viper has lost its edge

thanks for bringing a dead thread back to the top i put my finger up to you ..I..

When you're ready to start posting properly just let me know. 3/4 of your posts have nothing to do with anything.

[PerfAdv]

or is this FR V10 destined to be the next NSX? Can only guess at this point but with the cars that Toyota and Nissan have planned, a super-powerful FR from Honda is likely.

Looks like a Tsx made by Aston Martin

[Kitdy]

The NSX successor has just been confirmed by Honda to be on the market in 2010.

Dear Honda Japan,


We almost worship you.

P.S. You are better than Raptor Jesus.
