I was stopped at a red light and got hit from behind by a Pontiac Solstice on 6/6/17. Car was totaled. I bought it back from the insurance company for $6k and got the right rear quarter panel and control arms repaired. I re-registered it with a salvage title. Then it blew a head gasket. I got...

Is this your car? https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Honda_NSX_(1st_generation)_in_competition#/media/File:NSXmodified.jpg

Glamour shots!

New floor mats! Zanardi edition. Shout out to Science of Speed.

Went to replace the spool valve gaskets but got stuck when I couldn't disconnect the electrical connectors. This will give you some sense of how mechanically inclined I am (not very). Ran out of time to work on the car, but I'm gonna try it again soon to see if I can get them off. I found this...

Thanks everyone! I'll check out Valiants Racing. Is Ethan Xu on NSXPrime? I've only seen 3 other NSX's in the Savannah area. A black NSX owned by a military guy, a red NSX-T owned by one of the higher-ups at Gulfstream, and a yellow NSX doing laps around Roebling Road Raceway. If there are...

I'll check it out. Thanks!

Thanks everyone. I'm located in Savannah. I hadn't made any plans to attend Petit LeMans or tail of the dragon but I'll have to look into it. I started a build thread, here: http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/200165-LaffyTaffy-s-1991-NSX-Build

The SRS light stays on constantly when the car is on. The forums indicate that if the 10A fuse continues to blow, the most likely cause is a bad SRS module. I checked the 10A fuse and it was blown. I replaced it with one of the spares and after starting the car the SRS light still came on. I...

As cool as the center console phone is, if I 'm gonna daily drive this car I'm gonna need storage space and the NSX has very little to spare so the phone had to go. I didn't remove all of the electronic modules yet, just the handset itself. Just a few a screws and a plug and the handset comes...

The finish on the intake manifold cover was peeling off, so I decided to help it out a little bit. I just scraped off the bits that were easy to get off and left the rest alone. I'd like to get it re-finished at a local machine shop, which I suspect will be cheaper than buying an aftermarket one...

Here are a few pics of the condition the car was in when I bought it. It needs a little TLC and I hope to be able to refresh it a little, but it's not bad for a car that was DD'd for 27 years! The exterior is in great shape. Getting the steering wheel and the armrest re-upholstered and fixing...

Hey all! I just bought a 1991 NSX in Formula Red with 106kmi on it! I've been dreaming about owning this car since I was a kid, and I finally managed to get my hands on one! Now that I have it, I'd like to take care of several maintenance and repair items that it needs and then modify it for...

Thanks all! Pics below. Sorry for the crappy quality, I'll post better ones eventually. I would LOVE to go to Road Atlanta! That's at the top of my bucket list. All my track days have been at Roebling Road Raceway so far.

Build thread for my 1991 Formula Red NSX. She needs a little TLC, so that'll be the first order of business. More to follow.
