NSX-R

Usual

Recently sourced from Japan, The Cultivated Collector's 1993 Honda NSX-R is a prime example of the breed. Finished in the rare shade of Formula Red, chassis 0153 presents in an exceptionally well preserved state today, showing just over 65k KM from new and retains protective plastic covering the door sills. Accompanying the sale of 0153 will be Japanese service records, manual, books and two keys. With recent servicing, 0153 is at the top of its game - eagerly awaiting to devour open stretches of highway or winding country back roads.

In the mid-eighties Honda engineers were experimenting with various engine and chassis layouts in an effort to explore viability for future products. One such experiment saw the Honda engineers take a Honda City, cut it in half, and install the engine behind the driver's seat. Much to the delight of the engineers, after an extensive number of thrilling laps around the parking lot, this unsuspecting test mule led to inspiring the Honda board to decide that they would create a pure sports car, and thus the beginning of the NSX was born. 

Honda would consort with automotive design legends Pininfarina to create a concept car called the Honda Pininfarina Experimental, referred to as HP-X, showcasing Honda’s foray into the mid-engine sports car world. Management at Honda provided lofty goals for the engineering team, simply requesting that this new sports car would need to be as fast as anything from their German and Italian competitors, while offering Honda reliability and a highly competitive price. With this direction, work began on evolving the HP-X concept car into a working prototype that would be referred to as NS-X, standing for “New Sportscar Experimental”, with an intention to showcase numerous automotive technologies that Honda derived from its wealth of knowledge in the Formula 1 world. 

The backbone of success for the NSX would lie in its all-aluminum semi-monocoque, a first for a production car, incorporating a revolutionary extruded aluminum alloy frame and suspension components saving a significant 441lbs over traditional steel construction. Nestled in the middle of the car, just behind the driver and passenger seats, would be the heart of the NSX - Honda’s brand new C30A engine, a 3.0 liter V6 debuting their brand-new proprietary VTEC variable valve timing system. The chassis and powertrain isn’t where the motorsport connection stopped. 

Honda further leaned on their robust motorsports division to aid in developing the NSX into a truly capable track weapon, leveraging the successful hands of 3x Formula 1 World Drivers Champion Ayrton Senna and highly respected Formula 1 driver Satoru Nakajima, with both working tirelessly to fine tune chassis stiffness and suspension characteristics through seemingly endless test sessions at the Suzuka Circuit and the Nurburgring. The end product of this painstakingly thorough test and tuning regime was a chassis stiffness increase of over 50%, while retaining a near minimal impact to overall weight and the cars handling capabilities. 

Released to the public in 1991, the NSX was an immediate sensation with enthusiasts and journalists alike. Car & Driver, after extensive testing, noted “the low, forward, cockpit is exhilarating… like riding in the head of an arrow” and of the car’s responsiveness stated, “it's so precise in its responses, as if it were hard-wired into my cerebellum." Despite the NSX being well received, Honda engineers had to make compromises to meet a healthy balance between daily driveability and raw performance. It was decided that for those customers seeking a truly no-bars-hold racing experience, Honda unleashed to the world in late 1992 the revered NSX Type-R.

Honda engineers began the NSX Type-R development by putting the already svelte NSX on an extremely aggressive diet to aid in weight savings. Sound deadening, the audio system, spare tire, air conditioning system and traction control, along with some of the electrical equipment, were completely removed, while the heavy leather electric seats were replaced with fixed back carbon-kevlar racing seats from Recaro designed specifically for Honda. To reduce unsprung weight, Honda chose to replace the standard forged alloy wheels with lightweight forged aluminum wheels from Enkei. This extreme approach to weight savings saw the NSX Type-R weighing in at an astonishing 265lbs lighter than its standard NSX sibling, for a total weight of 2,710lbs.

Changes didn’t merely stop with weight, however. Honda’s suspension engineers focused on fine tuning the suspension setup to prevent sudden oversteer during high speed cornering, which was extremely rare during normal driving conditions but was more prevalent on track. To remedy this, engineers added one aluminum bracket under the front battery tray, and added one bracket in front of the front radiator to increase chassis rigidity. The entire suspension system was discarded and replaced with a more track oriented unit, featuring a stiffer front sway bar, suspension bushings, coil springs and dampers. Additional changes to the car would see the final drive ratio revised to aid in quicker gear changes, and installation of a higher locking limited slip differential. Meanwhile, the C30A engine would receive additional motorsport love with a blueprinted and balanced crankshaft assembly, utilizing techniques carried over from Honda’s racing car engine build process. 

The reengineering of the NSX into the NSX Type-R resulted in a highly capable track oriented weapon that would be able to keep up with the best of the best from traditional super car marques of the day - all while being financially accessible, and carrying Honda’s legendary reliability characteristics, making for an incredibly alluring package. From 1992 through 1995, Honda would only produce 483 NSX Type-R variants, all of which were sold exclusively to the Japanese domestic market, making the NSX Type-R one of the most sought after and desirable Honda’s to date.

“Positioned as the top flagship of CBR series, the CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP was developed with the concept, ‘Total Control for the Track’, pursuing high performance on the track and in races. Its engine was designed with technologies from the RC213V MotoGP machine which continues to win world titles, resulting in the most powerful engine for a CBR yet. The frame has enhanced stability under acceleration and braking, and with the help of an advanced electronic control system supporting sport riding, its potential has been further enhanced. The basic philosophy of the Superbike World Championship has always been simple: start with production-based motorcycles and modify them for maximum performance on track”.

Hiroaki Tsukui designed the 2023 Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP motorcycle’s paint scheme, which is reminiscent of the original 1992 color scheme. Tsukui also designed the original 1992 color scheme. The CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP has a racing pedigree, including the 1959 Honda CB92 Benly Super Sport. The bike has a 1000cc, inline four-cylinder semi-cam gear engine with an 81mm bore and 48.5mm stroke. The engine was designed with input from the HRC MotoGP development program. The CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP also has cutting-edge technology and performance.

Dream

1966 Honda Dream Motorcycle  - California Bike - 305cc 2 Cylinder - Silver and Black - 27k Miles  Soichiro Honda started out building mopeds after the end of World War II. Wildly popular, Soichiro soon grew his business producing his first D-type motorcycle in the early 1950's. These D-type motorcycles were built with a rigid pressed-steel frame and telescopic forks heavily influenced by BMW motorcycles of the 1930's. In 1955 Honda toured various European Motorcycle manufacturers studying their production facilities and processes and the design of their bikes. Once home, Soichiro who was a remarkable engineer, used the information he gathered on his trip to transform his moped business into one of the world's leading motorcycle companies. Honda created a new generation of lightweight, yet sturdy framed bikes utilizing a free revving twin-cylinder OHC design motor that was both fast and responsive, featuring electric starters and did not leak oil. Honda's designs transformed the industry making the Honda name a worldwide brand. Featured here for sale is a 1966 Honda Dream 305.  This motorcycle has been lightly restored and is largely in original condition and a very clean vintage motorcycle, originally from California with 27,000 miles on it. It is powered by a 305cc air-cooled OHC parallel twin-cylinder engine that is factory rated at 23hp @ 7,500rpm. Weighing just 350lbs this bike accelerates quickly to a top speed of 90mph. The lightweight of this motorcycle is due to a frame made up of metal stampings welded together to create the frame, headstock and rear bumper which integrates the motor acting as a stressed member. The front forks are also made of stamp steeled and utilize a leading-link front fork suspension which provides a soft ride. This unique construction also gives this bike its unique look along with its squared off headlight.  Highly collectible, these motorcycles are also very reliable, easy to maintain with parts readily available, and most importantly these motorcycles are lots of fun to ride.  Please call if interested or e-mail with specific questions. Thank you for looking.

To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION at RM Sothebys' London event, 1 - 2 November 2024. rn?230,000 - ?290,000 GBP rnrnOne of 483 examples of the first-generation NSX-R built exclusively for the Japanese domestic market; imported by the first owner to the United Kingdom in 1998rnTrack-focused special featuring a mid-mounted, balanced 3-litre engine making 280 horsepower; up to 120 kilograms lighter than the standard NSXrnFinished in stunning Charlotte Pearl Green over a black Alcantara interior; features rare optional seven-spoke Custom Order wheels presented in Championship Whitern rnrn rnrnAs Honda sought to take on Ferrari and Porsche with its New Sportscar Experimental flagship, the design brief was to create a world-beater that really could be enjoyed every day. Naturally, this left engineers to make some concessions in the pursuit of usability. However, the NSX-R from 1992 was born to be a hardcore, no-compromise, track-focused special. rnrnWhen specified in leanest form, minus traction control and with much of the sound deadening removed, the R was up to 120 kilograms lighter than standard. That helped the 280 horsepower mid-mounted V-6, equipped with Honda's signature VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) system, launch the car to 60 mph from a standstill in a hair's width over 5 seconds. Meanwhile, stiffer suspension and new aluminium bracketry improved rigidity to help dial out a propensity for oversteer. Just 483 cars were produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market.rnrnThis example was originally purchased in March 1994 by Mr Anthony Galliers-Pratt, a regular among historic racing and rallying. Working as a banker in Tokyo, he spent 11.25 million Japanese Yen for a final specification that included the stunning Charlotte Pearl Green paint (the majority were finished in white) over a black Alcantara interior that features red accent stitching. Also optioned were the rare and expensive seven-spoke Custom Order Programme Step Three wheels in Championship White, while the roof is notably finished in body colour rather than the typical black. This car also gained Mugen tubular manifolds, limited-slip differential, and an ultra-low final drive from the factory.rnrnMr Galliers-Pratt returned to the United Kingdom in the summer of 1998, accompanied by his car. Well-known to the Honda NSX Owners Club, it was acquired by the consigning owner in August 2011. Featuring the NSX-R-specific Momo leather-wrapped steering wheel, sculpted titanium gear knob, carbon fibre instrument cluster with yellow needles, plus carbon-Kevlar Recaro bucket seats, the car's speedometer now reads in mph. It is accompanied by an NSX-R owner's manual, history file dating back to its early life in Japan, jack, tool kit, tyre inflator, plus spare wheel. rnrnA seldom-seen model in any case, the sale of this UK-imported NSX-R presents a remarkable opportunity to acquire what is arguably the most driver-focused variant of Honda's celebrated 1990s supercar crowning glory. rnTo view this car and others currently consigned to this auction, please visit the RM Sotheby's website.
