    Wheel Tire Shock setup for comfortable ride

    I went from a 17/18 CE28 set up to the factory 15/16 set up while I was sourcing new wheels and the difference was very apparent. The fat fives are so light so it was a nice change in drive. For your speedometer, as long as the tire diameters are maintained, there isn't any impact to the...

    What do NSX drivers carry for a spare tire?

    Not sure if this applies to AAA but I've been denied by CAA a few times for having a modified car that is lower than stock. At my height the factory scissor jack can't fit unless I'm up on a 2x4. I usually have a cigarette lighter powered tire inflater, flat repair kit and commonly used tools in...

    No longer the one that got away...

    Welcome and great story that you eventually took ownership of! Spa Yellow is definitely up there in NSX colors for me. It seems pretty common to have NSX owners either coming from an S2000 or owning an S2000 alongside (being an owner of both myself). It's interesting to hear thoughts on how the...

    How much would I regret getting an Auto (and old ABS, NA1) instead of a 6MT

    Both my NSX and S2000 are insured through agreed value policies but the only conditions I had were that I had to be over 25 years old and own a primary vehicle that has a typical insurance policy. I asked about daily driving in the summer time and they didn't have any problems with that or fine...

    Tein top hats with oem springs / shocks?

    You're likely on Tein coilovers and the top hats will not be compatible with the OEM suspension as typically coilovers have a lot narrower springs. I would order new OEM tops hats if you do go with the stock suspension swap but if you're running coilovers you could raise the ride height to help...

    Proud New Owner-1992 NSX

    Just from my personal experience of having my snap ring range transmission fail at 138k, I would at least check the condition of the snap ring. If I remember correctly, this can be done through an inspection port to see if it's intact (not a sure fire way to tell that you don't have an issue but...

    I finally got one!

    I would be cautious of most aftermarket hoods. It seems fitment issues are quite common unless you go for a high option. I'd probably stick to OEM if I were you. Hopefully the damage can be repaired!

    Literally any NSX under 35k

    It was just a facebook ad for their auction listing. Looks like it ended up selling for just under 50k USD. https://formulaauctions.com/auction-details/0c640a63-858e-4e9a-bf05-ca84624677b6

    Like Honcho mentioned, only for harness and caged vehicles. They do list on their website that this is only for offroad use only.

    Bumper repaint or blend?

    It's pretty amazing what a solid PDR tech can undo. From the looks of it, I'm sure they can get the fender back. For the bumper it really depends on how close to original that would want to go. If it were me, I'd probably do a DIY fix unless the rest of your bumper is rough (which it doesn't...

    Question about Mugen Wheel size

    Wheels will fit without any inner clearance issues. You'll probably have to do some fender work depending on what tires and how low you set your ride height but these specs are pretty common stock body fitment.

    The introduction

    Sorry for your loss but hopefully you'll serve your dad proud as the next caretaker of his beloved NSX. A pre-face light NA2 is an amazing car to begin with as a starting point. I've only been in NSX ownership for a couple of years but have really enjoyed this forum. It's a lot more active than...
