    I am curious if I should remove the wheels while the car is on jack stands for a few days? Just wondering if the weight of the wheels would put too much stress on the suspension while the car is on jack stands. Thanks.

    AC Dryer/Receiver Sight Glass

    I read that it should be clear without any bubble for a full system when it is on. However, my newer Scion has bubbles and the AC works well and cold. My NSX has a little bubbles, and it's still reasonably cold. Don't quite remember how cold it is suppose to be, but probably less so than the...

    Just picked up a Baldwin oil filter (B1422). It just about the size of the Honda short filter. Reviews are good for the Baldwin oil filters in general. Anyone has experience with it?

    Timing Belt cover and water pump compatibility

    I recalled Honda changed the water pump and the lower timing cover (weep hole) long ago. I am curious if the water pump and the lower timing belt cover with the new weep hole are compatible for both the 3.0 (na1) and 3.2 (na2) motors? Thanks.

    Oil Pan Gasket - Leak

    Since the oil pan gasket was more than 20 years old (without leak), I decided to have it changed as preventive maintenance. Sadly, the gasket only lasted a few years and it is now leaking. I ran my hand across the edge of the oil pan and noticed that the gasket is bulged out a bit beyond the...

    I can't find the refill for the original wiper blade as they are really narrow. Have anyone tried the beam or the hybrid wiper blades on the NSX? I have the beam type on my other cars and they look pretty good.

    Oil Temperature

    Has anyone measured the oil temperature under normal operation for a NA1 stock motor? I don't drive my car much and want to get the oil temperature to around 212 to get rid of the moisture in the oil. I normally take it out for about 10 to 15 miles (30 - 40 min) locally. Assuming the...

    I was wondering the purposes of the 'X' pipe of some of the exhaust systems in the market. Does the 'X' pipe make the exhaust more restrictive since it has a smaller diameter (2 into 1) comparing to 2 separate pipe and also merging the exhaust flow from both banks which may cause potential...

    Have a general question regarding tire wear. The rear tires were worn excessively on the very inner edge portion while the rest still looks great due to alignment issue. My question is whether the tires will wear in a normal pattern across the tire or it will continue to chew on the inner...

    Alignment - Rear Camber/Inner Tire Wear?

    I have a general question for the suspension guru here. I am curious about the impact in inner tire wear with 0.3 degree difference in the rear camber. Let's say if I set the camber at -2.0 vs -1.7, would that cause additional inner tire wear? I also read that additional negative camber...
