I have a code indicating that my EGR valve is not functioning properly. Can it be serviced? New parts are unavailable so is there an aftermarket or other Honda/Acura part that will fit? Finally, can the car be operated without engine damage. I have a 1,200 mile trip planned but don't want to...

EstFest Marlene and I are coming. What time does the track event start? Kevin Cooper.

Please put me on your wait list. Kevin Cooper Ottawa, ON Canada

Here is a reality check. My field is vehicle aerodynamics and have worked in the field for 43 years. I managed all of the National Research Council of Canada's low speed wind tunnels, including the 30' x 30' full-scale tunnel that has a full-scale rolling road and is large enough to test a...

Not interested in Spa services, thanks.

You can count Marlene and I in. If anyone wanted a track day, it might be possible to go to Calabogie. It would be about a 3-1/2 hour trip. Have a look at their web site. The track is terrific! Kevin.

Can anyone tell me of a source for the rubber boot on the ball joint of the left front lower control arm? It seems that they are back ordered in Acura Canada until at least late August. Thanks, Kevin.

I have had my wheels refinished and the clear-coat blisters on the spokes of two of them. They have been redone several times, with many solvent cleanings, and the same occurs. I am looking for replacements. I need a front and a rear @ 16" and 17". If anyone knows what the cause is, and a...

Where is s good source for '96 NSX carpets. Tan in colour. Thanks. Kevin.

Looking for the Bank 1 cat for a '96. I have a pair of new, uninstalled Random Tech low loss cats. Want to stay original.

I am about to buy tires for my '96 with stock 16/17 wheels. Can anyone comment on preference to Dunlop Star Specs vs Michelin Exalto PE2s. Also, I had decided on 205/50/R16 for the front because they have the same diameter as the OEM 215/45/R16. I would use 225/50/16 but am concerned by the...

Kevin Cooper and Marlene Sauermann of Ottawa are coming in WOW NSX ('96 red on tan). See you there.

Can anyone recommend a reliable supplier of used NSX parts. Thanks, Kevin.

I am looking for a pair of compliance pivot lower brackets. for a '96. They are probably the same for all years. They are the pieces on the bottoms of the compliance pivots that are rotated to adjust caster.

OK, you win, I go for White Oaks. Kevin Cooper WOW NSX

I had some further thoughts on Est Fest. London area is a bit far for Ottawa and the Eastern US. Last year Marlene and I traveled to Picton in Prince Edward county. It is a lovely area with lots of accommodation, wineries etc. It is an hour closer to Toronto, although far from London. What...

Marlene and I and WOW NSX would be up for it. Around London would be OK. Niagara on the Lake would be wicked, if we can find a venue. Kevin Cooper

Thanks for your comments. I ordered a pair from a Canadian source, FastToys.net to save on shipping costs. They will not go on until the car comes out of winter storage in April. I will let you know how they work out.

I am thinking of buying two OBDII ctas for my '96. I have one bad cat and have decided to replace both. They are sold by Science of Speed. Has anyone any experience with them? Fit, performance, emission levels, quality of construction. Even comments on the 91-94 OBDI cats from the same...

My TCS light is on all the time. Pushing the on/off button has no effect. Initially it would come on after motor start. If I shut off after a few minutes and restarted it would stay out and the TCS would work. Now it is always off. I have a ECL on due to an O2 sensor failure that is about to...

I would like to replace the left and right compliance pivot lower brackets because mine have been roughly treated by a previous owner. Does anyone have a pair? Can they be bought as separate parts? So far, I have only been able to find the complete assembly. Is an aftermarket...

What is the status of the HID kit? I have a '96 and would like to replace my lights. Thanks, Kevin.

Can anyone recommend a source for a HID light kit for a '96 NSX? Thanks, Kevin
