    Haven't been on for a while and just saw this thread - I would love to get in on something in E TN, W NC, SW KY, SW VA, etc. I'm in Kingsport TN.

    What is the youngest child you can take in your NSX?

    My grand daughter started riding in the NSX as soon as she was big enough for one of those Graco backless booster seats. Since the booster seat does not fit properly on the NSX passenger seat, I stick a boat cushion under it which allows it to sit properly, and which also gets her up to where...

    Any "independents" doing Tming Belt/Water Pump

    There is a factory Acura NSX tech who has set up his own shop here in the Tri Cities of NE Tennessee. He did the timing belt and valves on mine, it is Import Pro, 423-863-7150. 6709 Kingsport Highway. IMO, he does good work.

    Anatomy of the NSX Sun Visor

    Looking at the pictures of how the visor is constructed and reading this post prompted me to try modifying the visor mount. When you remove the visor, you can feel that the internal cam mechanism or whatever it is that locks the thing into the down/forward position does not let the visor swing...

    Have you ever feel like you just spent lots of money on

    Got mine a couple years ago, picked a 91 with only 18,000 miles but had some "history." Looks great from ten feet away, have had the paint touched up, but that makes it a perfect daily driver. No regrets, the only reason I will ever have to sell it is if the wife and I (in our mid 60's) get too...

    Calling all Automatic Owners

    Here's the demographics - 64 years old, have autocrossed and raced various cars and motorcycles all my life, still have a couple crotch rockets - and a 91 NSX AT. 99% of the time you will be perfectly content with it - every once in a while you will want to be crazy and wish you had the manual...

    Why did you buy an NSX?

    Aircooled, don't worry about those who rail on you for not having driven one yet, just keep asking a lot of questions. I had never driven one, and had only seen one other one prior to driving to Michigan and buying mine. Drove it for a bit and it seemed pretty good, drove it home. By the time...

    Why did you buy an NSX?

    Back in 91 or 92 I took the kids to Kermit Weeks' airplane museum at it's old site at Tamiami airport, (before the hurricane blew it away and he built Fantasy of Flight up near Orlando) and Kermit's Formula Red NSX was in his personal parking space. It was the most beautiful car I had ever seen...

    I think Ethanol in my fuel broke my NSX...

    There IS a way to see if there is ethanol in the gas, and what the percentage is. Been having to fight this for years, ethanol is bad news in all airplane engines, especially Rotax 2 stroke aircraft engines running premix. And especially if your homebuilt has a composite fuel tank. Guess how I...

    The official "what did you get" thread.

    My son said that the cheesy umbrellas I had tucked alongside the seats of the NSX had to go, so he ordered two really nice black compact umbrellas and had them custom printed with the Acura and "A" logos on opposite sides. One of a kind, (I guess?) but in any event, very special to me. Great...

    Automatic Transmission Rebuild

    Just to add to the database, in June of this year the differential of my 91 automatic sheared all of it's splines off on the side that drives the left axle. Not sure why, probably part of what you get when you buy one with an unknown history. Anyway, took it to Tri City Transmission in Johnson...

    looking to buy my first nsx

    I have had my NSX for a bit over a year now and it has been quite a learning adventure. Due to knee problems I decided I needed an automatic, and since I planned to keep it and resale would not be an issue, I was willing to consider a salvage vehicle. Found a 91 with with 23,000 miles for...

    trunk won't stay up

    Just replaced mine this week, perhaps they have lowered the price but I did the whole thing for under $100 with OEM stuff. Replace the screw in ball ends and bought new E-clips too. Of course, my local Acura dealer will match the prices on Delray Acura's online price list... Took about 15...

    how much income per year is 'enough'?

    Apparently I failed to express what I meant to say, because I agree with you, your financial overview works just fine, I think we are looking at things from two different perspectives. I guess mine is that "having enough" also works pretty well if you can find a place to live where the cost of...

    how much income per year is 'enough'?

    This thread blows me away. Maybe it's because I live in Hooterville, East Tennessee, but the figures some of you guys are quoting are incomprehensible to me. Not that I begrudge anybody anything, I am happy for ya, but ??????? Wow. I guess I am missing something. I worked for 30 years as an...

    91 stereo head unit

    Non-functional, powers up but that's all, might be good for parts. $10 to make it worth my while to fool with it instead of simply throwing it away, plus actual shipping. Sold- please delete

    NSX on The Dragon 2009?

    Since it looked like nobody else was going on The Dragon, I stayed home and worked in the yard. Then Sunday after church, had my wife drive the NSX out Hwy 421 "The Snake" from Bristol to Shady Valley and we had lunch at the Country Store. In the 7 months we have had it, she has only driven the...
