Battery finally died on my ‘98... I’d prefer to replace with something of newer technology and/or something lighter or better - ideally, both... I’ve had very good experience(s) with lithium (Shorai) on my motorcycles... Is there a viable modern solution preferred in NSX Prime-land..? TIA

Reviving an old thread... Are these guys still around..? My '98s battery finally died, and I'd be very interested in getting a Shorai setup as a replacement. I use Shorai exclusively in my sportbikes and am extremely pleased with them. Any help is appreciated.

Sold. Thx, Si.

There's been some interest, but this is still for sale;Price is now $375.00 firm. Why buy new..?

Bump?

Returning to my old thread... Since the time-sert install, I've had zero issues. Call me happy, but it was a pain to sort out. My mechanic - well respected in these parts - has this opinion: These cars in many cases do not get driven a lot, and when they do they get driven hard. The heat...

OK, Sandro... Need some details on this body kit. I really like it. Is there a post about this kit? Is it a one-off you did..? More inf please. Are there hi-res images avail..?

This is a Cantrell Concepts Carbon Fiber Engine Cover, it's in great shape, uses the factory rubber gasket, clips, and prop rod. Solid one-piece carbon, no lexan or mesh. Very lightweight. It was on the car when I purchased it three years ago, and I wanted (and purchased) an OEM cover to store...

Yep - it flies...

Bought a used set of iForged (Aeros - they are three piece) about a year ago. They use a metal 90 degree valve stem that pikes through the center piece for access. Went to mount some new rear tires at Wheel Enhancement and they found a crack on one of the inner barrels at the lip. May have been...

Just seeing this thread... Purchased my '98 abt a year ago. Dash lites are red - I assumed that was stock, and they do not illuminate the dash very well. Was red Factory? I think white will work better... Subscribed...

No surprise - the Red NSX gets preferred parking...

Yep, 215/35 18 front. For others - my car is lowered abt an inch to inch and a half - no rubbing. Oddly these show almost no wear. I'll order the 265s today. Next is searching info on a proper align set up for better rear wear (all street driven). Good info on the Wiki... Thx for the advice.

Tire Rack still lists the F1 Asymmetrico 2 in 265/30 19. Tread width is actually 10.6 in (slightly wider than the 275/30) and the diameter is 25.3 - so only 0.3 in smaller than the 275. Seems like a fit. Any downsides? Any one used this size?

Well, The Goodyears (the Asymmetricos) are still avail in 285/35 19. However, the width at the tread is 11.4 in (275 is 10.2). I have room for the 1 inch of width... The diameter is 26.9 in for the 285 - 275 is 25.6, so going to 285 would be abt 1.3 inches taller. Too tall I think. The 265 is...

Well, I bought a set of these and the rears (275/30/19) are gone in 6000 miles. Belts showing so no driving until replaced. Fronts seem fine, but these sizes are NLA (No Longer Avail) from Tire rack. Any other sources? Would like to just get rears - but the 265s and 285s are too "diiferent"...

I'll chime in: Your weight (or BMI) is strictly a function of calories taken in vs. calories burned. PERIOD. Noteworthy is that muscles continue to burn calories long after you stop exercising. Therefore more muscle burns calories, so don't ignore weights and/or lifting. Biologically, your...

Nope. Bought my red / tan with black mats from PO. One of the first things that had to be "fixed". Got matching tan mats from SoS. Best interior mod (after changing the PoS Pep Boys shift knob...)

I'm sourcing the new head bolts and serts myself.. I should be dropping parts off tomm. Hopefully, will be back on the road soon. I was more fearful that the block was flawed, or the motor had been abused. That does not appear to be the case...

Well, my worst fears have been confirmed. A headbolt has pulled, resulting in failed headgasket. Was very disappointed to hear this, as I had long thought these engines were bullet proof. Potential costs of new block and rebuild swirled in my head and I was not a happy NSX owner. Well some...

So head gaskets do fail on these cars..? The white smoke has me fearful of this. No oil in the coolant tank, and no water traces on the dip stick though. Hopefully will get it to Ramon today.

I jacked up the right rear and pulled the wheel. Oil cooler lines are not leaking. Might be the water pump, but it's beyond what I can see / do with my current garage setup... Flat bedding to my mech today...

Thx, guys. Will jack it up and crawl under tonight. Will post my findings.

'98, stock except for headers / exhaust. Owned since this July. Prior to selling, PO did significant service - performed by Autowave, a popular local NSX specialist - including hoses, tank and more... I've driven approx 6K miles since purchase, with zero issues. H2O temps have remained normal...

PM sent. Thank you.
