The Honda NSX Type R (shortened as NSX-R) was a track-oriented variant of the Honda NSX sports car series of the 1990s. It was sold exclusively in limited quantities for the Japanese domestic market. A key focus during development was maximum track performance with little consideration for driving comfort, which prompted the removal of luxury features found on regular models, bringing to a total weight of only 1230 kg. As the standard NSX was known to be somewhat tail-happy, the entire suspension was overhauled to give the car a stiffer ride.
