Spoon fed NSX-R GT
Spoons NSX-R GT starts with a NSX or NSX-R. Spoon then works its magic by stripping the entire car and rebuilding the car from the ground up with chasis reinforcements, carbon fiber bumpers, unique side air scoops, famous snorkel, and loaded with type R and special GT parts. All of these parts have been sourced directly from Honda. When they put the car back together its ends up weighing in at 2795 lbs. Thats 305 lbs less than a standard US NSX. They also boost the 280hp 3.2 liter C32B motor with an HKS 3037 turbo to a very respectable 420 hp. Spoon also went to work on the brakes, drivetrain, and the suspension. They added their own set of track coilovers and upgraded the brakes with Spoon monoblock brake calipers, slotted rotors, and braided steel brake lines. To add more bite and tolerance for abuse to the clutch they added a Spoon Sports metal clutch and pressure plate
Spoon offers the car for sale in very limited production numbers for $135,000. They can do US spec and JDM spec. These guys are so good they can build you an automatic NSX-R GT ( although I cant imagine that they will even sell one automatic). In my opinion for $135,000 this car is a solid buy. Its a ground up restored NSX or NSX-R that has the motor boosted, suspension and brakes tweaked, and full aero enhancement and weight reduction.
Just wanted to share the car with you guys and hope you like the pics as well.
The car in the first picture is not the Spoon car. Its the actual NSX-R GT. I just wanted to give you guys a reference point to what they were trying to replicate in the build. The original 5 were sold for $500,000 each.( Thats just nuts)
