I recently went the Daryl Willman route. My drivers door speaker went bad as per the FAQ description. I pulled all three (doors + underfloor) speakers as they all apparently go bad around the same time, opened them up, detatched the PCB's within and couriered them to Mr Willman. Now I live in...

John, I am also in New Zealand, so why dont you email me direct and we can have a chat. I have some good contacts that may be able to help. [email protected] Bob from New Zealand.

The S2000 is a little beaut. I have one in the garage along side the NSX. Much as I love the S2000 the NSX is still the more magnificent vehicle. .... Way more magnificent. As far as the current NSX being devalued by the eventual arrival of the new NSX, I seriously doubt that will happen. Our...

Interesting to note that the only crashed NSX's (two of them) that I have heard of locally were caused by owners turning off the Traction Control and then losing control during aggressive cornering. Occasionally if I feel the need to smoke the tyres a little, I will turn TC off. Does this make...

re the structure: Your are absolutely right worldsport, and the strengthening of the structure would be imperative and the key to the whole conversion I agree. Which is why I wondered how those original conversions have held up. Presumably the coachbuilders at the time added significant...

The thread and picture of the convertible NSX has made wonder about the fate of the after-market soft-top conversions produced in the USA. Does anyone on the board own one of them, and does anyone have any experience of the conversions? I have this probably irrational fantasy about purchasing...

I have a 91 manual. The only rattles have been from the rearview mirror, and the lens on the emergency flasher activator lens(column mount). Bob

Hey G-man, Re the computer comment ... yeah in hindsight it was a little cheeky and it was nice you took it with a "grain of salt". Warm regards, Bob in New Zealand

Hi Joe, I had a rattle that eluded me for months. To cut a long story short, it turned out to be the red plastic lens on the emergency flasher switch mounted on the column stalk. It was just a little loose and only vibrated on certain road surfaces. The only other rattle that has ever come...

OK G-Man so you are really saying the glass hatch MAY have some MINOR implications for structural integrity, and not as you originally stated... "the glass (hatch) in the NSX is shaped and designed in such a way to offer the car increased structure rigidity that would be SEVERLY compromised if...

G-Man, You may know some Honda engineers, but do you really think that the removal of the glass cover would SEVERLY affect strength of the Coupe? Come on ... it has one little catch, and is seated in rubber .... I think not, but I am prepared to be proven wrong some by really convincing...

Thank you for your input gentlemen. I'll search on the big list. Bob

I have had my beautiful 91 NSX for 6 years now, and am feeling like making some upgrades. I would appreciate some feedback from those of you with Superchargers. It seems the advantage of the Comptech is the retaining of stock engine cover, whilst the Gruppe M looks to be a simpler conversion...

I don't have the optional phone installed, but I believe the centre speaker is for the phone system.

Currently I own a 92NSX manual. I have come across a 91 Auto with low miles. I'm thinking of adding to the Garage. Have any of you experience of the Autos, and additionally, have any of you upgraded the performance of these models. I would value any thoughts and comments. Bob from New Zealand
