This 1995 Acura NSX isn’t just another clean build—it's the kind of project that happens when personal history, automotive obsession, and borderline unhealthy levels of detail all collide in one garage.
RJ Enriquez didn’t buy his NSX off hype or impulse. He got it through a twist of fate: a call from an old friend he hadn’t spoken to in over seven years, who had a second kid on the way—and a very upset wife. You know the rest of that story.
RJ didn’t build this car for followers or trophies. The NSX became RJ’s canvas—an ever-changing and evolving proof of his love for Honda, Spoon Sports, and the ultra-rare NSX-R GT, Honda’s homologation car built for JTCC—one of the coolest racing series ever. He didn’t just chase Spoon parts—he hoarded them, crossing off nearly every NSX-specific piece the company had ever made.
The car got dry carbon from ATR Racing in Austria, titanium from Gooichi Motors, and re-barreled one-of-one Mugen MF10s built in California. Even the barrel stickers were custom-made in the Philippines. This wasn’t just sourcing parts at this point—it was a worldwide game of tracking down everything he wanted.
Paint-wise, it’s coated in a color called Nouvelle Blue Pearl, a subtle nod to the NC1 NSX. RJ debated between this blue and a dark gunmetal, but his kids helped seal the decision after playing around with it on Gran Turismo. From there, it went to Miami for a full respray, which ended up so meticulous that the shop made him replace a targa seal no one would ever notice—delaying the job by a month. That should be an indication of how detailed this entire build is underneath it all.
The interior is decorated with Mugen, Alcantara surfaces, and carbon fiber, with little details like a Tommy Kaira knob and titanium hardware everywhere. Spoon coilovers handle the ride quality, and the car is still regularly driven, despite being detailed to the point of absurdity.
This car isn’t made to be trendy. It’s not trying to be anything other than exactly what RJ wanted: a rolling scrapbook of memories, craftsmanship, and obsession. The final result is worth the effort, as no detail goes unnoticed.
