Seller Description

This 1997 Acura NSX-T has remained registered in Oregon through the current owner’s acquisition in 2001 and is powered by a Comptech-supercharged 3.2-liter DOHC V6 paired with a six-speed manual transaxle. Finished in Formula Red over Camel leather upholstery, the car is equipped with Comptech exhaust components, rear shock tower bracing, staggered-diameter 16” and 17” aluminum wheels, a limited-slip differential, aftermarket suspension components, a removable body-color roof panel, pop-up headlights, power-adjustable seats, automatic climate control, cruise control, a CD/cassette stereo, and a Bose sound system. Work since September 2023 consisted of fluid changes in addition to performing a timing belt service, adjusting the valves, and replacing the front lip, trunk and rear hatch struts, spark plugs, windshield washer and oil cooler lines, fuel pump, EPS control unit, and tires. This NSX-T shows 20k miles and is now offered on dealer consignment with a window sticker, a dyno sheet, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Oregon title.

The NSX featured aluminum bodywork, and this example is finished in Formula Red with a body-color removable roof panel. Features include pop-up headlights, an integrated rear wing, side air intakes, power-adjustable side mirrors, and dual exhaust outlets. The front lip, trunk lid and rear hatch struts, and a windshield washer line were replaced in preparation for the sale.

Staggered-diameter 16” and 17” seven-spoke aluminum wheels are mounted with 215/45 front and 245/40 rear Bridgestone Potenza tires showing 2022 date codes. The car features a four-wheel double-wishbone suspension with aftermarket sway bars and lowering springs as well as Comptech rear shock tower bracing. Braking is handled by NSX-branded calipers over vented rotors at each corner. Curb damage is located on the right-rear wheel. The brake and clutch fluids were flushed in September 2023.

The power-adjustable sport seats are upholstered in Camel leather and are joined by color-coordinated lower door panels and carpets. NSX-branded floor mats line the footwells, and interior amenities include automatic climate control, cruise control, a Bose sound system, and a cassette stereo linked to a six-disc CD changer. The stainless-steel door sill plates are stamped with the car’s serial number.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a tachometer with an 8,000-rpm redline, a 188-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 20k miles, approximately 8k of which were added under current ownership.

The Comptech-supercharged 3.2-liter C32B V6 features dual overhead camshafts, VTEC variable valve timing, and Comptech exhaust headers. Work since September 2023 consisted of changing the oil, flushing the coolant, performing a timing belt service, adjusting the valves, and replacing the spark plugs, water pump, drive belts, oil cooler lines, fuel pump, and EPS control unit. A dyno sheet and results of a compression test are presented in the gallery.

Power is routed to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. A Comptech exhaust system has been fitted, and additional photos of the underside are presented in the gallery. The transaxle fluid was replaced in September 2023.

The window sticker lists factory equipment, colors, and a total vehicle price of $88,725.

The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in Oregon. Multiple gaps between entries are present in the report.
