- [Honda NSX Type S 2021] made as a 1/43 scale handmade model car of [EIDOLON].
-It will be a model that faithfully reproduces the final limited edition Honda NSX [Honda NSX Type S] released in 2016.
[Vehicle commentary]
- The second-generation NSX, which has been revived for the first time in 11 years since its predecessor ended production in 2016.
-The car name was inherited, but there is no commonality in the mechanism, and the relationship is similar to the last Skyline GT-R, BNR34, and the R35, which changed the name to Nissan GT-R. Isn't there?
- The 2nd generation NSX has a continuity with the 1st generation in that the V6 engine is mounted on the rear mid, but the mounting method has been changed from the horizontal mounting of the 1st generation to the vertical mounting, and not only the engine but also the The power plant has been changed to a hybrid system that combines three motors.
- In addition, the drive system was a full-time 4WD that did not care about the rider or road surface conditions, and new technologies were incorporated, such as one motor each for the left and right front wheels to perform torque vectoring control.
-Although its reputation as a vehicle was by no means low, sales were sluggish, and its history ended just six years after its birth.
-Also, in 2018, a minor change was made with the aim of boosting it, but it did not attract much attention, and in 2021 it was announced that sales would end the following year.
- But the NSX didn't stop there.
- In August 2021, we will announce a limited edition model called Type S as a model that decorates the beauty of the end.
- Although only 350 units will be sold worldwide, the engine power has been increased (507 hp to 529 hp), the output of the hybrid system as a whole (581 hp to 610 hp), 4WD system control and suspension settings. There are a wide range of changes, such as the change of the front and rear bumpers, and the aggressive design of the front and rear bumpers that makes you feel like they should have been like this from the beginning.
[Model commentary]
- Since the actual vehicle appeared in 2016, we have commercialized the initial model and the NC1 type, which was minor changed in 2018, in 1/43 scale.
-This time, the motif is the Type S, which was announced at about the same time as the announcement of the end of sales of the second generation NSX.
-In addition to the mechanical evolution of the Type S, such as the increased power of the engine, the exterior also greatly changes the impression from the conventional model.
-In modeling, we performed a 3D scan of the actual car, based on which the front and rear bumpers were newly designed, and docked to the body of the conventional model on the data.
- Like the actual car, the basic frame of the car body is the same as the previous model.
-By overpainting only the details unique to Type S, the model car is more consistent with the conventional model.
-In addition to simply following the modeling on the surface, we have also reviewed the cooling system parts that are more transparent through the grille due to the changed shape of the bumper intake to improve reality and depth.
- Wheels are fitted with sharp white metal casting parts replacing brass cutting prototypes.
- Carbon pattern decals are pasted on the diffuser and lip spoiler and clear coating is applied.
-Although it is a limited edition, the Type S has the greatest presence in the history of the 2nd generation NSX. Please enjoy the difference side by side.
