After having a close call in my NSX yesterday I realize that there must be some incredible stories among us primates. This happened yesterday: It was a beautiful spring day and I was on my way to pick up my wife (in the freshly washed X) from work for date night. As I approached a stop sign...

After 3 years and 17,000 miles it's time to replace my rear tires. They are BF Goodrich KDW G-Force tires and that tire has been discontinued. The replacement tire is the BFG Comp-2. I'm sure this tire would work well (although I do prefer the tread pattern on the KDW G-Force). My front...

I'm partial to the Portland C&C on Sequoia in Lake Oswego, but also enjoy the Cascade Station C&C. Maybe a drive afterwards? Sorry Ira, can't make the drive on Sunday but if looks like fun. Matt

After 6 years and 32K miles of ownership, I have finally seen the light. This was on a 500 mile trip in the Columbia River Gorge and right before the light came on I was feeling like Kramer on the test drive. The needle was well below the red mark when the light came on at 399.5 miles on the...

Sorry for the late notice (my Saturdays are like that). I was planning on attending tomorrow's C&C in Lake Oswego around 9:30 and would love to see some fellow NSX'ers. Hope to see you there, Matt

I normally drive my 1991 NSX with the AC off and the temp gauge (after warming up) is rock steady at 1 line below the halfway mark. Today while running the AC I noticed the temp was registering 2 lines below the halfway mark. I was cruising on the highway at 60mph in 5th gear and when I turned...

The Jack Reacher movie is coming out next week and I'm curious to know if any Reacher fans have an interest in seeing him played by Tom Cruise. I realize the Reacher series isn't the Lord of the Rings; but I think it would take Peter Jackson and all his CGI magic to make Tom Cruise into Jack...

This Friday I will continue the tradition of putting up Christmas lights. I'm no Clark Griswold; but, I was wondering how many of my fellow Primates decorate their homes for the holidays. And to what extent? This was taken in 2008 when we had an usual amount of snow. Most years the...

After fours years and 24,000 miles a mysterious blue light has appeared on the console. Does anyone have know what this is? Have I inadvertantly initiated the self-destruct sequence? The PO installed an aftermarket alarm system and it may be part of that system. Thanks in advance for the...

I am in the process of replacing the Goodyear Eagles (225/45-17 front and 265/40-18 rear) that were on the car when I bought it in 2008. These tires seem fine to me (I have no basis for comparision); however I do set off the TCS under quick acceleration. My intention is to replace them with...

I'm looking for the owner of #JH4NA1150MT002007 While doing a simple DIY project (ignition switch) I took a break to see if there was anything in the owner's manual that might be of help. (Page 40 showed where the key goes.) I noticed that the owner's ID info on the inside cover of the manual...

My beautiful bride-to-be and I are planning our honeymoon in April and have each had friends recommend this particular hotel. I have visited the web site and it looked great (like it's supposed to). I've never been to Mexico and am not sure what to expect. My idea of a great vacation would be a...

On the Sunday before last we took a trip to Cannon Beach, Oregon. She had no idea what was happening when I said, "Hold on a sec hon, I have something in my sock". I was on one knee and had the small box in hand when she figured it out. I asked, "Beth Smith, will you marry me?". She said yes and...

While on vacation I just happened to get a short ride in a 780whp twin turbo GT-R. It didn't mean anything, it was just a ride. Will my NSX have any way of knowing about this if I don't say anything? Just because I rode in a car with almost 3X the horsepower of mine and went from 0-60 in...

I'm considering an Acura Vigor as my 17 year old son's first car. I am looking at a 1993 and a 1994 with 176K and 178K respectively. I have always thought they were nice cars but do not really know much about them. Are there any inherent problems with the car or things I should pay...

Last month I started planning my family's trip from Portland, OR to Northern Virgina. On February 4th I checked prices and four round trip tickets would have been about $1450 flying Southwest. After coordinating and securing vacation times I went to book the flights yesterday and the price...

I have seen the posts on the 3M product versus Venture Shield and don't see a clear (no pun intended) winner. Have these products improved in the past few years? Is either product better on Berlina Black? Are there new products that you would trust? I drive my car about 6K a year (it's a...

Met up with a friend and his 1973 Pantera. Two timeless beauties. If Elvis were alive in 1991 (and could fit) do you think he would have owned an NSX?

After putting in the hours with the Dawn concentrate, clay bar and Zaino (and not thrilled with the results), I thought it best to check with my fellow Primers to see who they would trust the paint on their NSX to. Thanks in advance, Matt
