From what I can gather only very early NSXs and possibly R versions had no power steering.
Most of those built had early electric powering steering, and like the S2000, were regarded as *crap* from a steering feel and feedback perspective.
Not quite true. Certainly from 1997, the JDM purchaser could opt to have PAS or not on manual cars - My 1999 Type S does not have PAS, which makes parking a bit of an effort sometimes, but the trade off is excellent feedback and feel at all other speeds.Most of those built had early electric powering steering, and like the S2000, were regarded as *crap* from a steering feel and feedback perspective.
Loved the non-PAS steering - a lot more feel in the corners
Didn't like the big gap between 1st and 2nd - 6 speed box better
My induction noise seemed a lot louder - maybe because I removed the engine cover?
1992 was softer riding - assume smaller wheels, softer springing and smaller ARBs make the difference.

Did these come standard with one pot sliding calipers?
No 4pot fronts at the very least...
Twin pot sliding, with differential piston sizes to control pressure distribution and prevent grab. Smaller and lighter than a 4-pot fitment, to the benefit of unsprung weight, with negligible performance difference in road use.No 4pot fronts at the very least...
