    NSX changes by year, NA1/NA2 explanation, and production numbers (all in one simple chart)

    Alternator Installation

    The tension is important. I had to rebuild a friends alternator due to over tightening of the belt. The front bearing in the alternator was shot. (so was the belt)

    What is this piece on the roof of the vehicle?

    There are 5 or so nuts on the underside of that center brake trim that can come loose. There was a service bulletin for the center brake lamp in some early cars. If the dealer doing the replacement did not use some thread locker on the nuts, they can come loose. I believe M5. Open the...

    (Daytime Running Lights) DRL DIY for Imported cars to Canada

    The DRL module is no longer available. It hasn't been for 20 years. The wiring on US cars 1991-2001 has never been confirmed to be DRL or fog lamps. Neither were an option on US cars. On a 2002-2005 car, the headlamps do have a built in (park lamp) socket that can be used for DRL purposes...

    Battery Dead Overtime or Main Relay is Broken?

    I stay away from AGM batteries because AGM batteries are designed to require 14.6v – 14.8v when performing a full charge from a state of discharge, whereas standard lead acid batteries need 13.8v – 14.4v, hence this is what most onboard chargers (alternators) are designed to deliver – not the...

    Battery Dead Overtime or Main Relay is Broken?

    My '91 is showing the same signs and symptoms. If I use the CTEK maintainer, it starts just fine and allows me to drive the car and get home without using a boost battery pack. I checked my records. my battery is 11 years old. Time for a new one. comments: when a maintenance free battery...

    Oil pressure sending unit

    Does anyone know the resistance range for the oil sending unit? (for the oil pressure gauge, not the light) I am trying to source an aviation quality sending unit. The OEM sending units tend to fail with heat and vibration. SoS has a kit to relocate the sending unit to the firewall (near the...
