    What's a Good Performance Meter These Days?

    Just wondering what's the latest in the performance box-type meters. I'm kind of looking for an inexpensive box that can measure and display parameters like lap time, 0-60 accel, 60-0 braking, lateral g's, things of that nature. Bonus points if you can download the data to a computer and view...

    My Leatherseats.com Review and Installation Pics

    I got around to installing my Leatherseats.com seat covers, so I took some pics and I thought I'd write up my experience. I ordered a set of black 100% Ecstasy leather with black Alcantara body covers. I received the package about 2 - 3 weeks after ordering. Initial impressions of the kit...

    DIY: Seat Cover Removal

    I'm getting ready for my new seat leather installation, so I took the old leathers off my seats. I snapped a lot of pics that I might use to make a detailed writeup. I found the Leatherseats.com instructions to be OK but lacked some detail. I did the driver seat, then on the passenger seat I...

    How To Tell if CV Joint Gone Bad?

    I pulled my passenger side axle because I heard some "clunking" from that side occasionally when going over bumps or when the body was rolling from left/right turns. I couldn't identify anything else in that area that might make noise. Anyway I pulled apart the outer joint and it was filled...

    My 1994 Cleaning and Restoration Thread

    Well this isn't really a build, but I have some progress photos of my car in work, and I figured I'd consolidate them into one thread so anyone can look on while I do stuff to it. My car is a 1994 Berlina Black with about 110,000 miles. Runs great, recently I did my TB/WP and transmission...

    Two-Tone Interior on a Black Car?

    So I'm kinda torn on what, if any, I want to do to my interior to freshen it up. My car is a 94 and the original black leather seats are all cracked and torn, so I'm going to be recovering them soon. I've also looked at the DIY interior stitching mod which looked really cool in red thread, but...

    Review: Headlight Restoration Kit

    I cleaned up the headlights on my wife's Camry today, and I just wanted to share my experience in case you were considering doing this to one of your cars. The car is a 2002 but the headlights had some pretty bad oxidation and weird dulling going on, especially near the top of the light. The...

    Where to Dispose of Fluids?

    I was wondering if anyone has figured out where to take various automotive fluids for disposal / recycling. I do a lot of DIY stuff in my garage and I have fluids. Perhaps we can get a list going of what shops accept certain fluids. This might be helpful to other DIY-ers. In my garage I...

    Caught up on High-Mileage Maintenance

    Peace of mind for many more years! I had the back end up on jack stands for about three weeks, while I took my time and caught up on some scheduled love for my car. At 112k for my 94, I replaced with new OEM parts: Timing belt Water pump Thermostat Coolant hoses (all 23) Fuel filter Spark...

    Street Tire Pressures At The Track?

    This topic might have been beaten to death already, but please read on for my actual question, since it might spark some new discussion. As you may have read in some of my other posts, I've started tracking my car this year (it's a bone stock 94). My tires are 215f 245r Kumho ecsta XS tires...

    Track Day at Thunderhill

    Buttonwillow, April 2-3

    *Now with video!* Track day put on by NCRC. Anyone going? I'll be there on Saturday the 2nd, my first track day in the NSX since I bought it last year. All stock, point-by group (only 3 track days under my belt). Should be interesting!

    Brakes FS: Used 94 Brake Rotors - Free

    Wondering if anyone is interested in a free set of used rotors from my 94. They are slightly scored and have small "spider" cracks on the surface. They didn't vibrate or pulsate or anything like that when the pedal was applied. I don't have a set of calipers or micrometer so I don't know if...

    Tire Selection for Stock 94 Wheels

    Hi guys, I'm thinking of making my first tire purchase since I bought the car a few months ago, and I'm not too thrilled with the selection of tires in OE 215/45-16 and 245/40-17. The car currently has Sumitomo HTR-ZII and they are not very impressive. I mostly do street driving with some...
