OEM Honda NA1 NSX-R 5 Speed Short Gear Set

Description

Enhance Your NSX Performance with Japanese Gear Ratios

Optimize your NSX’s acceleration with Japanese gear ratios, a shift that drastically enhances performance compared to the North American model. The Japanese NSX-R gear ratios are finely tuned to position your engine within its powerband more effectively than the standard US gearing. This upgrade is particularly advantageous for spirited driving and track use, delivering substantial improvements to your NSX’s capabilities.

For North American or European NSXs (1991-1993), our dropdown menu offers all essential components needed to transition your Acura USDM gears to the performance-boosting Japanese NSX-R gears. By selecting the available options, you’ll access everything required for this conversion.

Shorter gear ratios offer a multitude of benefits:

1. Improved Acceleration: Experience quicker acceleration as shorter gear ratios deliver increased torque to the wheels, enabling higher engine revs.
2. Enhanced Responsiveness: Enjoy a more agile and nimble driving experience with quicker responses to accelerator inputs.
3. Superior High-Speed Performance: Benefit from maintaining higher speeds in upper gears, ideal for high-performance driving and track usage.
4. Enhanced Fuel Efficiency: Shorter gear ratios help maintain lower RPMs during highway driving, potentially improving fuel efficiency.

However, it’s crucial to acknowledge that while these benefits are substantial, they do come at a cost, including heightened engine wear and increased fuel consumption at lower speeds.

For Asian or European Spec NSXs (1994 – 1996), the conversion requires only the Countershaft, Main shaft, Oil Pump Gear, and the Final Drive.
