    NSX on Carsales

    Oh I read all that but nobody tells the truth in their Profile! Well Mike maybe it's a manual now but wasn't it an auto when you won Targa Tasmania? Auto was quicker because you didn't have to put down your cigars to change gears?

    Coilovers/lowering springs

    TEIN RA with 17" rims. Springs (10/12kg) are a little too stiff for bumpy country roads, but perfect on a smoother road. If you don't intend to track the car I'd suggest softer springs. I drive with the dampers set near the soft end of their usable range.

    Lookout !! Sweetchuck's comin to Melbourne!

    Hey Ricky got your e-mail, that's great! Maybe we could arrange a meet up for lunch at the weekend you're here, 13th or 14th August? Anyone else interested in meeting up with Ricky on either of those dates? Yes Melbourne can be expensive and cold! Zoo is great, some new indoor exhibits...

    Hey Mike, sounds good! Hope you're on the mend. Where exactly shall we meet at Chadstone? It's a very big place!

    It's time.... for a Melbourne Cruise

    Hey Mike, Lang Lang to Drouin + optional extra back road cruising sounds great! For Greg and I it's already 2 hours from home to Lang Lang so I think going on to Phillip Island is just too far and too boring! Do you know a good place down that way where we could have some lunch together?

    May be time to say Bye Bye :(

    Hey Ricky, Hang onto it until you're absolutely certain! You've put a lot of work into that car. Sure you're not just having a temporary midlife crisis on us? For guys like us that's when we SELL the sports car. With 4 kids (congratulations!) I doubt you'd drive with complete reckless...

    NSX Engine Cover, CCU

    Leong, my NSX CCU had similar problems about 3 years ago so I posted it to BrianK. He fixed it quickly and it's worked perfectly ever since. Hope this helps.

    NSX Purchase

    From memory, stock there's only 20hp difference between auto and manual versions. Maybe the auto has a little more drivetrain loss but power-wise the difference is certainly not vast, and everything else is subjective. Some people - strange people I agree - actually prefer to have an auto...

    NSX Purchase

    Hey Dane, Yes welcome to Prime & hope you find yourself driving a NSX soon! Having kept an eye on the NSX market for a few years, some of the Autos for sale have been for sale for a long time. The manuals tend to sell quickly, and at a premium. Both are great cars to drive, as they come...

    Parts and Service in Melbourne

    That's very funny Mike but you put me off my breakfast! Had to ask what Brewer's Droop is, imagine that. How much faster is the mobility scooter than your old detuned auto NSX? :biggrin: Please let us know if you find a workshop you're happy with for the work on your NSX. A reliable...

    Parts and Service in Melbourne

    Hey Mike, Wow that's really not good... forgetting to do it is one thing... but falsely claiming to have personally done it regardless is just crap. But at your age you shouldn't be letting yourself get worked up about ancient history! Be cool like Mr Wolf and remember it's just an old Honda...

    Parts and Service in Melbourne

    Hi Mike, when I've needed parts from Robert Lane they've used the VIN from another customer's Australian car to look them up. Maybe you could suggest this to them? Robert Lane have done timing belt, gearbox rebuild (snap ring failure), clutch replacement and regular servicing stuff on my car...

    Melbourne meet before winter hits????

    I think this thread should be renamed "Melbourne meet WHEN Winter hits"! Saw the famous Neo today, he's very busy lately but hopefully he can come along Sunday. Let's keep it simple and meet at Albert Park at 9:30 - that's early enough for me :smile: David is the plan is still to have a...
