Ngeminyaka yoo-90, kwafika imoto yezemidlalo evela eJapan ukuze ifane neyona nto yenziwayo eYurophu – ndingatsho nokuba ngcono! Nangona inamandla amancinci, i-NSX ihlaze iimodeli ezininzi ngamahashe amancinci kuphawu…
Kukho iintsuku xa kufanelekile umzamo wengqondo ukukhumbula i-90 esele ikude, xa uHonda wagqiba ekubeni anike abavelisi baseNtshona ukubetha okukhulu. Sasiphila kwixesha laxa imiba efana nemithetho echasene nongcoliseko, iinkxalabo malunga nosetyenziso, okanye ingxaki enkulu yamatyala yayiziinto zabantu abangenako ukucinga ngazo. Ubukhulu becala eJapan, inkokeli yohlumo lwezoqoqosho, kwakukho umkhuhlane “wemidlalo yemidlalo” yokwenyani.
“Imoto ekuthiwa ine chassis ephantse ibe yi-telepathic. Ukucinga nje malunga nalapho sifuna ukuya khona kwaye umkhondo wenzeke phantse ngomlingo "
Ngelo xesha, ukuqaliswa kwemifuziselo yezemidlalo eJapan kwakuthelekiswa kuphela nesantya sokuzala kweempuku. Kungelo xesha ke apho iimodeli ezifana neMazda RX-7, Mistsubishi 3000GT, Nissan 300ZX, Skyline GT-R – singalibali iToyota Supra, phakathi kwezinye ezininzi, zabona ukukhanya kwelanga. Kwaye uluhlu lungaqhubeka...
Kodwa phakathi kolu lwandle lwamandla amakhulu kunye nokusebenza, kukho enye eyaphuma phambili ekusebenzeni kwayo, ukuchaneka kunye nokubukhali kwayo: iHonda NSX. Omnye wabadlali bezemidlalo baseJapan abazelwe kakhulu kwaye babalaseleyo kwi-90's.
Xa kuthelekiswa nabakhuphisana nabo baseJapan nabaseYurophu ngelo xesha, i-NSX isenokungabi yeyona nto inamandla - hayi kuba enyanisweni yayingenjalo. Kodwa inyaniso kukuba le nto ayizange imthintele ekunikezeni "ukubetha isitayela esidala sesiPutukezi" kubo bonke abachasi bakhe.
I-Honda igxininise lonke ulwazi lwayo malunga nobunjineli (kunye nokunambitheka okulungileyo ...) kwimodeli eya kuthi, emva kokuqokelela iimpumelelo ezininzi, ifumane igama lesiteketiso elithi "Ferrari yaseJapan". Ngomahluko omkhulu wokuba, ngokungafaniyo neeFerrari zelo xesha, abanini beeHonda kwakunganyanzelekanga ukuba baqhube behamba nomkhandi etrankini kunye nenombolo yenkonzo kwisipaji sabo – hleze umtyholi ubaluke… Ngokungathi oku akwanelanga, i-NSX ethembekileyo ixabisa iqhezu lexabiso leFerrari enqabileyo.
I-NSX ke ngoko ibingumxube onzima ukuhambelana. Igcine ukuthembeka kwayo nayiphi na iHonda eqhelekileyo kodwa yaziphatha, nokuba isendleleni okanye kwisekethe, njengabanye abambalwa. Kwaye kwaba kanye kule ntsimi ukuba imoto yezemidlalo yaseJapan ephezulu yenza wonke umahluko kukhuphiswano.
Enkosi kwindawo esembindini yokubekwa kwenjini yayo – iyunithi yeV6 eyakhiwe ngesandla! - kunye nesakhiwo sayo se-aluminium "i-monocoque" (into entsha ngokupheleleyo kwiimoto zokuvelisa), i-NSX egobileyo egobileyo kwaye yenza "izicathulo" kwiindlela zeentaba. Yenze ne chassis into ebingenayo enjinini. Akunjalo ukuba yayiyi-amorphous, kodwa ngenxa yamanani amandla abo bakhuphisana nayo yayikwimeko embi.
Imoto kuthiwa ine chassis phantse telepathic. Ukucinga nje malunga nalapho sifuna ukuya khona kwaye i-trajectory yenzeke phantse ngomlingo. Le nyaniso ayihambelani noncedo lomnye u-Ayrton Senna, owathi, ngeentambo ezingenakubalwa awazenzayo kwisekethe ye-Suzuka, wanikela uncedo oluxabisekileyo kwiinjineli zaseJapan ekusekweni kokugqibela kwemoto.
FUNDA KWAKHO: Imbali yenkcubeko ye-JDM kunye nenkolo ye-Honda Civic
Isiphumo? Uninzi lweemoto zemidlalo zelo xesha xa zithelekiswa ngqo ne-NSX, zazifana neenqwelo zeedonki ezigobayo. Iimoto zaseYurophu zibandakanyiwe…! Ukusa kwinqanaba lokuba ukongama kobugcisa kweHonda ekuyileni iNSX kuye kwahlazisa iinjineli ezininzi phaya kumhlaba obizwa ngokuba yiMaranello, eItali. Ngaba wakha weva ngayo?Yayizizo zonke ezi ziqinisekiso (iindleko eziphantsi, ukuthembeka, kunye nokusebenza) ezigcine imodeli isebenza ukusuka kwi-1991 ukuya kwi-2005, ngaphandle kotshintsho. Kuyabonakala ukuba iHonda iyahendeka ukuba iphinde le nto...
