Well, I've had a couple of Honda's and they both looked better than anything Honda has produced in the last ten years.


This is my 1986 NS400R that I raced in production class and my 1990 US model RC30.

Looks cool but still has those damn sidemarkers right where you need to access to remove the front bumper. Was hoping they would have realized that design flaw since constantly removing the sidemarkers makes the clips wear out frequently - at least for me.

How about making the 86 symbol on the side be the side marker?

Won't meet many regional safety requirements. Or at least it won't and still look anything like an 86 symbol. For example in Canada it must be an amber reflector and light of a minimum size. An 86 symbol that would meet the requirements would look horrid.

I suppose. I guess that's why people ask if my red 86 is a ferrari or a lambo. Sadly not, I say

I'm curious if they do use the 2.4, if the compression will still be high like the current FA20.

Exactly.
The Z4 has a turn signal in the fender logo, but there is still an ugly reflector in the same spot as the BRZ's.

Geez- an unprovoked attack on the Z4. I'll let it slide since even I will admit it is a terrible detail on the car

FYI on side markers:



US and Canada require a front marker light and reflector in amber, the rest of the world requires a side turn signal that can be in a number of different spots: the wheel well like our cars/Porsches/RX-8/etc, on the fender between the front wheel and door, on the mirror, etc.



Manufacturers will sometimes combine them, like the twins, so the US gets amber marker light, rest of the world gets clear lens turn signal. Other times, they keep them separate (mostly when the amber marker/reflector is integrated into the headlight) so we end up with both and many US cars get the side signal even though they aren't required.



The zenki RX-8 had side markers like ours (easy to swap with the JDM clears), but the kouki moved the marker/reflector into the headlight (harder to get rid of the amber if you don't like it) and added a side signal next to the door.



I think side signals are far more important especially if you are in an urban environment with multi-lane roads. I not only swapped my amber side marker housing for the JDM clears, but I rewired them to act as signals.
