AutoX this weekend in Cincinnati! Unfortunately I had a mechanical issue of some sort after only two runs.

Here's my 1992 with 153K miles. Just had the wheels powder coated and spent a lot of time on the paint with clay bar and multi-step buff and wax. Really pleased with how it looks so far!

Thanks all for the feedback! Coolant and 23 (I think that is the right number) of hoses were all changed about 2 years ago so that has been checked off the list. The half shafts and boots look really good, surprisingly. They are original according to the PO. The PVC and TB/Intake cleaning is...

Hi All, I continue to go through my recently acquired '92 NSX. I bought the car from a good friend who owned the car for 27+ years. She has 153K miles on her now, and has some track miles, so I currently have her sitting on jack stands in the garage: My main projects were: 1. Swap out...

I haven't replaced it, but see in the shop manual where it is located. I'll check with the PO and see if he ever replaced it, or if I am living on borrowed time. :-)

I just dropped off my factory 16/17 wheels to get refinished and powder coated in the factory color. I am using Wheel Doctor. I think they are a chain. The one I'm using is in Cincinnati. About $700 to refinish all of them and mount/balance my new tires on the wheels once completed.

Thanks, I found a few older articles on the forum and those sounded exactly like my symptom. Part ordered! Thank you!

Hey all, my new-to-me 92 NSX has been running perfectly in my first month of ownership. Went to head out today and it fired right up but then stalled. Restarted fine, I pulled into the driveway and let it idle in neutral since it's only about 50 degrees. I climbed out and it stalled again...

Parts are showing up this week. Tires just got here (Falken RT660s in stock 16/17 sizes), as did all the new pads and rotors. The wheels are going to Wheel Doctor on Monday to get stripped down and powder coated the factory color and the tires installed. While it's up on jackstands, the...

I'll try and make it up, not too far from me.

I had no idea Source 1 was such an expert in these cars, but have heard it from multiple sources, and also have messaged back and forth already with Brian about the car. I am a wrench-turner and have the full NSX shop manuals, so my hope is that I can do a lot of the work myself. But...great...

Hey @Jasweep - new owner here in Cincinnati area with a red/black 1992. Would be fun to connect with other owners for sure. I know @centerpunch is also in the Cincinnati area as well and he's been very helpful sharing info with me on my intro post from a few weeks ago. -- Mike

That's great to hear - I already met Brian virtually via the Cincy Cars and Coffee FB page and now multiple sources are giving Source 1 a thumbs up. The 23 hose swap has already been done on this car...one thing to cross off the list. :-) I am installing all new brakes this week and...

Sounds good! What Cincy shop is doing the work on your NSX? I've been reading the shop manual (aka - The Bible). The car had valve adjustment/water pump/gaskets/TB almost 10 years ago, but only about 10K miles. Probably need to think about tackling that job sooner than later. The former...

Thanks everyone for the nice welcome and for the advice. Greatly appreciated! I'm going to keep the current 16/17 wheel set-up for now, but am going to have them refinished, and install new tires.
