The S-Zero is pretty stripped out and lightweight like the NSX-R, but it is NA2 so incorporates those improvements. The suspension uses NSX-R springs and dampers, but the rear sway bar is the larger one from the Type-S so it is more tail happy. This makes it harder to put down power on corner exits, as they comment in the video.
@Lyndaporvida basic differences are - 1st gen NSX type R uses a 3.0L engine with 5speed gear box whereas S-zero using a 3.2L with 6 speed box - if memory serves right type R is also lighter as well
S zero is really great... but this is a comparison between the NA1 3.0 NSX-R and the 3.2 NA2 S Zero... if the R was the 3.2 NA2 the S Zero couldn't stand a chance... Despite the NA2 R being faster , I still prefer the S Zero, just for the styling and that awesomeee steering wheel! Really gorgeous!
@Aztech355 because pre-2008...there was a gentlemen's agreement between all Japanese auto makes, states that for all domestic model that they make, they should stick within the 280hp/180km/h max speed limit...and i believe in the late 90s, the USDM 3.2L NSX were pulling some 290hp... after 2008, where the R35 GTR made its debut, w/ it's 480+hp it clearly shows they no longer care/bonded with that 280hp/180km/h limit... cheerios
I would go with the s zero , would love to see a video with alex zenardi nsx vs s zero.. s zero pulled 12.47 1320 that's impressive for 250whp or so would love to see some modern 1/4 mile pulls as well
@Aztech355 if Senna's still around it might not discontinue this early...but let's face it, at that price range(approx 120000usd), there are quite a lot of supercar selection w/ more power and some cost less - ie, porsche 911, corvette, etc and even with the facelift done @ 2001/02, the changes weren't that significant and impressive...so even honda did put a lot of innovations n technology thru all these years, but w/ less power, that made the NSX losting its appeal against rivals
I want one :D.. 6 MT Type Zero// pop up headlamps.. lightweight 18inch rims.. Graphite Silver with black roof and black rear spoiler. Grey Connolly leather with red piping/red carpet. Yummmie :D
Aztech355 it was allegedly a gentlemen’s agreement for the Japanese automotive companies to keep the power under 300 horses so that it doesn’t become the power greedy competition like it is today .
depends on what year u buy the NSX. 1991 NSX cost about $25,000 so just build up from there. If the GTR now is 6 speed manual ill prolly buy that instead... but they put this new shifter which really sucks ass
zanardi edition is a type s minus the 1 piece ricaro seats so it will be heavier. the type s zero goes even further with the weight reduction. no radio, a/c etc.
I named my company S.Zero Group not after this car. I heard of this car in 2012 but I forgot about it. In 2013 I established the S.Zero Group. The S is Super. The name Zero originated from a tuning shop in Wangan Midnight. I came up with Super from Super GT. So I say this car signifies the S.Zero Group. S.Zero is now mainly a joint Detail and Car Service Repair Shop but originated as a Go-Kart and Motorsports Racing Club. These departments signify why it is called S.Zero Group. As this car is turned 20 Years old, I like to honour this car and say this car is the Spirit and soul of the S.Zero Group.
The Japanese know how to make a car comparison video. They are the best. I just wish there were subtitles.

@EJ255BL9
Thanks for the info I'm disappointed that the NSX was discontinued. If Aryton Senna was still around it would have been even better.
Such a beautiful distinct sounding car.
I didn't realise that the NSX had such a massive tachometer ;-)

cheerios
It's not the angle of the corner, it is the radius of the corner.
The value in 200R, 130R etc is the radius of the corner in metres I think.
I would go with the s zero , would love to see a video with alex zenardi nsx vs s zero.. s zero pulled 12.47 1320 that's impressive for 250whp or so would love to see some modern 1/4 mile pulls as well

@nitrousboy0311 Actually I thought the guy in front in the orange took a strange line through the S corners.
I want one :D.. 6 MT Type Zero// pop up headlamps.. lightweight 18inch rims.. Graphite Silver with black roof and black rear spoiler.
Grey Connolly leather with red piping/red carpet.
Yummmie :D
there was nothing in that the whole way, but watching that it seemed like the NSX-R was just a little more settled through corners.
yep, NA2 type R does not have retractable headlights. NA1 Type R is a rear machine but S Zero is better overal car imho
2 nsx in suzuka what else you want !
@EJ255BL9
Thank you for the comment.
s zeroのホイールが好き
How is it that the type R is slower in the straights despite the fact that it's lighter? Is it because of gearing?
素晴らしい走り！！
Those are the biggest tachometers I’ve ever seen!!!
So whats the difference between S Zero and Type-R? They both look identical and look like they handle the same....
@EJ255BL9
My question is why did Honda choose to have under 300HP for the NSX?
Aztech355 it was allegedly a gentlemen’s agreement for the Japanese automotive companies to keep the power under 300 horses so that it doesn’t become the power greedy competition like it is today .
Is it not the radius of the corner?
how much is it for one of those cars?
Nowadays it'll run you about 50-80 depending on model/condition
@@wileyeyefloaty665 They're crazy expensive in Australia now, starting at approx 115k USD 😭
A type R or Type S are significantly more expensive too
One Type R sold over $1mil
Shiiiiit.
the r is faster in turns but the s is faster in straight and since the finish line is on a straight path the s won....simple
It was an Na2? That all makes sense then....
@EJ255BL9
I agree.
thrilling video
What is different about the Type-S Zero?
3:24 is very cool.
oh. if it has the same amount of power as other cars, it wins cuz it handles so good.
depends on what year u buy the NSX. 1991 NSX cost about $25,000 so just build up from there. If the GTR now is 6 speed manual ill prolly buy that instead... but they put this new shifter which really sucks ass
Those 3 people breeded two more.. 5 people now....
nsx-s-zero, or -.5 seconds and air conditioning? i can't choose! :P
🏁🇯🇵
@supertrex2
lol very cheap,but they are nice
ok. the R is slower on the straightaway..
Mod? totalled $95,000 not including labor,
NSX S-Zero = USDM NSX Zanardi edition?
+frostydc4 They are similair, but the S-Zero has recaro bucket seats, Momo steering wheel, Type-R suspension and is a lot lighter.
zanardi edition is a type s minus the 1 piece ricaro seats so it will be heavier. the type s zero goes even further with the weight reduction. no radio, a/c etc.
susoension, weight ,etc. not engine
やっぱRはコーナーが早い!
the s zero is the fastest nsx stock.
also engine
タイムはrのほうが速いんだ

*Spoiler NSX win*
S-Zero > Type-R
