Without either being charged its dropping 475 little horses between the 3.2 in the trunk and the 1.7 up front for a total VC of 4.9(a liter point one more) but its NA. charged nominally without having to undergo serious engine revamps she could drop 712.5(at 8-9 PSI). Comparably the NSX curb weight is just under 3kips while the GTR is 3.8kips. Engine addition would add 6-7 hundred pounds. They would have the same weight but the NSX P-W would be 374 compared to 252 for the GTR.
Cd is .32 for the NSX

See, my problem with that is how...ghetto that is. Sure it's a fun little project to do for yourself but if I want to spend 80k on a car, it's going to be on a GT-R. I love how it looks and I love how it has so much technology in it. I would dispute your numbers but...I really don't know where you got them? The NSX's power to weight ratio is at least 5 lbs/hp with your turbo twin engines. The GT-R's is something like 7 lbs/hp. That doesn't really matter though because your Hondastein would not have all of the differentials and software necessary to accurately deliver the power to the right wheels and the handling would therefore be compromised.
