The Acura NSX is the result of many years of research, racing experience, and technology. The supercar resulted with outstanding performance, luxury, and amazing control. There are two powertrains mounted mid-ship. The first powertrain is made totally of aluminum and is lightweight. The V6 engine has 24 valves, is 3.2liter, DOHC, and 90 degrees. The six speed manual transmission results in 290 horsepower and 224 lb-ft of torque. That means the Acura NSX is very powerful and can really get up and go. The second powertrain is a 3.0 liter DOBC that also has 24 valves in its V6 engine. The automatic transmission is a Sequential Sport Shift four speed and the engine can power out 252 horsepower and 210 lb-ft of torque.
Both of the engines have the VTEC, Variable Valve Timing, and Lift Electronic Control, which is patented by Acura. They also have direct ignition, a Variable Volume Induction System, as well as Programmed Fuel Injection that is controlled by a computer. Titanium connecting rods are used in the NSX engine because they are lighter and stronger than the steel ones.
