Speed In His Veins: Marby Enriquez's 1992 Acura NSX

Photography by Vlad Shurigin


Building cars seems to run in Marby Enriquez鈥檚 family. Whenever he came home from school to see his brothers working on their car or taking delivery of new parts, his affinity for wrenching became stronger. 鈥淚 guess you can say my family has speed in their blood,鈥 he laughs.

After working on some cars in high school and getting his hands dirty with his own 1989 240SX with an SR20DET swap, he gained enough expertise to move on to the next big project. Fast forward to today, and Enriquez has his very own 1992 Acura NSX. His love for the NSX is two-fold. For one, he loved that the Acura NSX was the legend of the Honda wheelhouse. Supercar performance at a reasonable price 鈥 what鈥檚 not to love? Secondly, it was influenced by time spent playing Gran Turismo with friends, racing in endurance races with the car.

A carefully selected bunch of modifications helps his Gloss White wrapped NSX stand out, even among the supercars. He attributes the relative ease and quality of the build to quality parts. 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 want to go cheap. I鈥檝e learned that from past mistakes,鈥 he says. 鈥淕o big or go home. You get what you pay for.鈥 We couldn鈥檛 agree more.

While his original intention was to build the car for racing, Enriquez has found himself attending lots of car shows, but rest assured this car still gets driven the way it鈥檚 supposed to. He extends a heartfelt thank-you to his family, friends, and his sponsors Wrap Specialists, JDMotoring, and MP Built.
