    HELP: What exhaust is this?

    I'm selling off some parts from my car to help fund an engine swap. When I bought the car, the previous owner told me that the exhaust was from TaiTec, but from my research I don't actually think it is. There are no discernible markings or branding on the thing so I'm hoping y'all can help me...

    My mis-adventures in engine-out maintenance...

    Semi-experienced shade tree mechanic here taking some time to tackel some deferred maintenance on my 1991 Formula Red NSX. Had the car since the end of 2020 and finally figured it's time as the weather is no longer freezing here in the PNW. This will include the timing belt, water pump, all...

    Help identifying wheels

    Hey guys, please forgive me for posting such a basic bitch question; I'm not quite up on my wheels... I came across a black NSX on Facebook this morning with a set of wheels I am trying to identify. They LOOK like Work Emotion T5R wheels but the lug wells look a bit different so I can't be...

    Weird paint job...

    Is the reason no one has bought this NSX the god awful paint job? Is there something else about it that would red flag it? It's been on eBay for a WHILE now... https://www.ebay.com/itm/1991-Acura-NSX-Coupe/233655721088?hash=item3666f75c80:g:pwEAAOSw4J9fDJ~6 Halfway thinking of buying it myself...

    Heater core actuator cable? And a few more questions...

    Hey guys, Finally had a chance to root around the NSX some more today on my day off and found a few things I thought I'd ask the collective knowledge of the forum. First is the attached photo. I'm guessing that is a cable coming from the Climate Control Unit? It was just hanging out like...

    Outside temperature sensor. Where does it go?

    Hello Primers. Yup, I'm full of all sorts of random questions this week as I'm slowly going through my car and finding little issues. Two little things I found today. The outside temperature sensor in the front of the car was just hanging out. It's still got the bolt that mounts it, but to what...

    Cowl shake while braking above ~45mph

    Not sure if this is the right forum as we don't seem to have a general Troubleshooting or Brakes subforum, but here goes... I noticed this for the first time today. I was driving on the freeway and when I applied the brakes the whole front of the car started to shake. Cowl shake. Steering wheel...

    Does having the OEM alarm in your car mean you also have keyless entry?

    Like the title asks: Does having a factory alarm mean you also have keyless entry? My car didn't come with a fob so I just assumed it didn't have keyless entry. But I realized that maybe it was lost a while ago? (I'm like the 3rd or 4th owner.) I've been trying to research this on the forums...

    WC Lathe Works shift knob

    I just wanted to post this up for members who may be looking for an alternative to the usual suspects for shift knobs. WC Lathe Works is well known in the Subaru community, and I bought one of their knobs as a Christmas gift for my brother a few years ago. It was amazing. Top notch craftsmanship...

    Science of Speed or ProSpeed catalytic converters?

    My car has a set of test pipes on it right now. My eco-conscience and emissions testing require me to get a set of cats. Well, more the emissions testing, honestly. Been searching around and it seems like the usual suspects are the SOS or ProSpeed units. They are both the same price. And I...

    New owner in Seattle!

    Hey guys! Long time lurker! But this is my first post as a new NSX owner! Man, it feels good. Like many on this forum, I was in love with the NSX as a kid. It was my first automotive love, the car that launched me into my automotive pubescence. Along the way, I got sidetracked into British cars...

    Aftermarket rear quarter panels / fenders?

    Been searching around and as also emailing some vendors but haven't come across what I'm looking for... Does anyone make replacement OEM-replica rear quarter panels? I see that some vendors sell the DF wider front fenders (used to great effect on the Clarion Builds NSX), but does anyone make a...
