    Attempted theft of NSX in San Jose

    Someone got into my locked cherry '93, two floors down in my complex's "secure" garage, without damaging the door locks or breaking a window. They jimmied the ignition with a screwdriver and removed a panel underneath and forward of the steering column. For some reason, they didn't succeed in...

    Door-ding protection

    I'm considering a new apartment where my assigned spot would be between two others. My cherry '93 has never had a door ding because I've always parked it away from other cars or in an end spot, staggered to the side. The apartment's great but I'm worried that my car will become peppered with...

    Repair shop replaced clutch rubber boot; now feel vibration in clutch and gas pedals

    A shop put in a new stock clutch in my '93. The new clutch worked BEAUTIFULLY. They did notice that the rubber boot (I think it covers where the clutch arm goes through the clutch housing) was missing and ordered me another one. So 3-4 weeks after the clutch replacement, the boot came in and...

    Painting vs. wrapping

    I have a '93 with red body and black roof. All the red paint is still shiny and brilliant, but my roof pillars--and now, my roof--in recent years have developed splotchy worn-through clearcoat and oxidation. Places want a fortune to repaint all the black components--$3000 to $4500--but a...

    Is it advisable to spray clear coat over chipped paint?

    Someone did a hit & run on my NSX, denting the left front fender just above the wheel. That is the only panel that is damaged. I’ve had three body shops check it out, and they all say that since they’ll need to overspray onto the hood to blend the paint, they’ll have to re-clear-coat the...

    Teaching my niece to drive a stick in my NSX

    My sixteen-year-old niece had been driving for only a few months, and had never driven a manual-transmission car. My brother jokingly said that I should teach her how to drive a stick in my NSX. Then I thought, "Why not?...why not learn to drive in the world's coolest driver-training car???"...

    How to clean engine cover?

    My '93 has what I think is the same engine cover that all NSXs have: it has a textured black surface. It had gotten dusty over the years so I took a carpet brush to it. Big mistake--the first couple swipes took off the texture, which appears to be sprayed or glued on. I stopped immediately...
