IMO, building an NSX as a drag chassis is grounds for castration. :p

Therefore I say S, they're cheaper and proven anyway.

If you have the money, do the NSX. It'd be different. Everyone has been doing an S2000. lol

Everyone? Name more than a handful of 9-10 second s2000s...

Nsx as a drag car seems pretty dumb, but if you got the funds you probably wouldnt be asking the question to begin.

Working on NSX's is too difficult. Plus, parts are more expensive. For a drag car you want a car that you can take apart, and put together a lot of times.

I built an S2K this year. For many reasons

1. RWD
2. RWD in a honda platform
3. I make more money then I used to when I built my civic
4. The prices of S2K's Dropped from 3-4 years ago
5. Did I mention RWD?

I was considering going over to EVO land. but from what is seems so far S2000's seem to be a better platform. They are kinda tuff to work on (compared to a civic)

I will be at import revolution with it if anyone notices a red S2000 in true street stop and say whats up!

first part of your statement i don't agree with. I don't know your experience but they are not that bad to work on.

maybe you can get away with building an s2000 drag car for $50k, but I can tell you $50k will put a small dent if you want to build it the right way..

Everyone was an exaggerated statement. My point was there are way more S2000's than there are NSX's.

It's going to be a full chassis car. It's probably not gonna be hard to work on, and I'm assuming he is going to put the motor in the front and run a solid rear axle.
