Snap Ring failed -where 2 go???

**NA4Life** · 06-03-2012, 07:29

Hey guys- so my car is showing signs of a " failed snap ring"

I have a 92 NSX with about 81 k on it and a stock clutch ( that feels great STILL)

I have no clue where to go for a good shop/dealer to do the repairs

The only shop i have called was Inline Pro...and they are telling me They have to remove the engine to separate the trans,IDK if tho is true because i haven't seen any info on here about removing it or not

Please help- I need my baby on the road! THANKS

You don't need to buy a "kit"; those are factory parts that you can buy directly from any Acura dealer, and they come with Acura's parts warranty. That includes your local Acura dealer as well as dealers offering good discounts on web/mail parts sales like Acura of Peoria and Delray Acura.

Acura of Peoria has very good customer service and fast shipping process.

No, the engine doesn't need to be removed. I had PTuning remove my transmission and ship to SOS when my transmission needed to be rebuilt (blown 2nd gear), which was far cheaper than replacing the transmission.

Bring it to BEN!

**blue_myriddn** · 06-06-2012, 05:25

Personally, I would let Ben @ Daisy handle it.

**Roland44** · 06-09-2012, 06:01

I highly recommend Ben at Daisy if you want your baby in good hands.

**NA4Life** · 06-15-2012, 14:03

Y'all are very helpful! I am dropping my car off this weekend and Ben tells me if everything looks ok- meaning noting else if fucked- then it should be a quick turn around!!!!!!

thanks for all the help again!
