    Service options in WI, IA

    Will keep Zimbrick in mind. AoB is where I usually go, but as you indicated is sort of the wrong direction. Thanks for the responses. - MH

    Service options in WI, IA

    Hi NSX-ers, I live between Milwaukee and Madison, and I'm going to Des Moines soon and weather depending I am thinking about road tripping in my NSX. The car is well maintained and I don't expect any problems, but just in case can anyone recommend any competent service places around areas...

    Any shop Recommendations for Timing Belt/Water Pump Job in Chicago?

    I had my TB/WP done at AOB last fall, just a smidge less than $1600 out the door for everything. Thought that was pretty good.

    LFA at Lexus of Brookfield

    I was going by there a few weeks ago and thought I caught a glimpse of an LFA, but when I went by on my return it wasn't there. Anyway, on Saturday I was driving my NSX so I went by there and it was out front. I got there close to closing and was able to hear it when they moved it back into...

    There's a rat in my NSX, what am I gonna do?

    Two winters ago I had what I think was a mouse get inside the car and get comfy. Lots of junk under the passenger seat. I cleaned everything up and used the Bounce dryer sheets last year. Doesn't seem to have come back but there is still a faint lingering smell after 2 years and multiple...

    auto vs stick

    Funny, my wife is the same. She had one auto and couldn't wait to switch back. She wanted a manual, all wheel drive, four door with some "go". Not many choices and we were looking for quite a while and ended up with a 2006 Outback XT (Turbo) manual. She loves it, and for a family hauler...

    Brake Caliper Painting Kit (free) - POR15

    Hey ORD/MKE NSXers, Last year I bought a caliper painting kit (red) from POR15 and did my NSX calipers. I thought it was easy (they stay on) and it looks really good. I did all 4 and there is enough to probably do 8 more. None of my other cars show enough caliper to make it worth it...

    Oil light came on while accelerating hard

    Could you be confusing with TCS maybe? Accelerating hard may make that go off and on could it not?

    Growing up without a cell phone

    48 here and a rural midwest location growing up, here are a couple things that come to mind: High School did not have a computer, only a Teletype/terminal dial-up modem networked to a timeshare computer at an area college Early years an 8 party land phone line. 8 families shared the same line...

    Post up Dem Hot Ass Shots!!!

    Little did I know in the mid 90s when I had my '87 Lincoln Mark VII LSC with the leaking airbag suspension dropping it right on to the ground that I would have been so trendy today. I should have forgone the $180/wheel for the new bags and kept the car!:smile:

    NSXs in the workplace....strange thing happened today.

    Normally I just go for loop drives and start and end at home with no stops. Last week I had a day off and took the NSX on a couple errands. I was two for two on stops and inquiries. The first was at a motorsports dealership. When I pulled up there were immediately 3 people around the car - I...

    NSX window tint

    My hatch was tinted when I got the car. I'm not sure of the level but it is not too dark. Even that further inhibits the already limited visibility out the rear, but then again it's not a great tint job either. When I look out the back with the mirror I can't see if cars behind me have lights...

    Should I buy another NSX

    Pardon the slight tangent here, but I see where a lot of NSX folks point to a color or exterior/interior color combo as contributing to "rarity". Colors can be changed, and it is such a personal preference anyway. The NSX is a very rare car in general, and that definitely contributes to the...

    Guys more likely to cheat on high-earning women

    Clarification - marriage pre-children. Children happen, different dynamics entirely.

    Guys more likely to cheat on high-earning women

    BINGO! It is not complicated, and this sums it up perfectly. To take it a step further, women enter affairs for attention, men enter for sex, women give in to sex to not lose the attention. HMMM, kind of sounds like marriage too :smile:

    Encounters with celebs - tell your story

    I had quite a few, mostly athletes, when I worked for McDonald's Corp. They had an annual celeb golf tournament hosted by MJ to benefit the Children's Charities, and had employees work as volunteers. That was a while back, but here are some I remember. Michael Jordan - seemed OK but always...

    NSX is a Corvette??

    That's not really as much of a stretch as it would first seem. Look up side or rear view pictures of a late 90s Camaro Z28, especially a red one with a black top and compare it to an early 90s NSX. I'd say it doesn't really look less like the early NSX than the newer Corvette does compared to...

    Should I buy an older or newer NSX

    HA! - glad I'm not the only one. The only way I would ever get a fixed headlamp NSX is if I could flip it for a profit!:smile:

    Passenger Seat Won't Slide

    Yes, there is a knurled knob on each end. The screwdriver (the kind with the pop in ends) bit I was talking about is a square end one that is close to the same size as the internal cable. The seat just moves on two threaded rods, and if you turn the part where the cable connect on each side...

    Passenger Seat Won't Slide

    I had a seat motor go out in the far back position, and needed to remove the seat to clean up some debris left by a friendly rodent over the winter. Can't describe the joy when I discovered the invasion and then the seat not working within 10 seconds of each other! Anyway, there is a cable and...
