    Finally...New home for my NSX!!

    I moved my family from Indianapolis, IN to Greenville, SC last year. The house we moved to was on a narrow lot without a garage. We chose to build a carriage house with an extra-tall first story so we could install a two-car lift. I have documented the entire carriage house build here on...

    "You might need a new engine..."

    Background (for those of you who don't know me) I have a 1995 NSX with 126k miles and two owners. The first owner had it until 2014; I have had it since then. Only two mechanics have ever worked on the engine. The first was Carl Dehls, a legendary NSX master tech at David McDavid in Plano...

    In the market for a 2 car lift. BendPak?

    I am moving from a house with a 5 car garage to a house where I will be building a 2 car garage. Therefore, I will likely spec a 12 foot ceiling and install a 2 car lift. ANYTIME, I believe you are a BendPak dealer. I tried to PM you, but your box is full. For anyone who has one or has...

    Moving from Indy to Greenville, SC: Looking for mechanic

    I am in the process of moving my family from Indianapolis, IN to Greenville, SC. I have a few fun cars, among them an '03 S2000, a '95 NSX, and an '04 TL. So I will be looking for a good Honda/Acura shop. Source1 is a great NSX specialist in Cincinnati, OH that services my NSX when needed...

    Not just another EPS question

    I have a '95 NSX. Today the EPS light came on and the EPS stopped working. I parked the car for a bit but the light was still on and EPS was still not working when I restarted it. When I hit the gas from a stop light, it hesitated a bit like it lost power for just a second. I took it home and...

    Paintless Dent Removal

    I just purchased an S2000. PPI was great and the interior is very strong. However, there are several dents/dings/scratches on the body. Can anyone recommend a good PDR place in Indy? How about someone who is good with touchups? I have seen that some do both, but I'd appreciate a...

    My son is on Jalopnik

    Last night, I wrote a post on the Midwest forum stating that I had just gotten back in town and read that Jason Torchinsky (a Jalopnik editor known as "Torch") would be giving a free talk titled 'Cars Are Ridiculous; Also, I Love Them'. He also planned to unveil his "pixilated" Lancia hooked up...

    HUGE last-minute Indianapolis happening!

    I just went on Jalopnik and read that Jason Torchinsky (a Jalopnik editor known as "Torch") will be giving a free talk at the Indianapolis Art Museum tonight at 7. It is titled 'Cars Are Ridiculous; Also, I Love Them'. He will have his "pixilated" Lancia hooked up an old Atari console and a...

    New NSX on cover of Automobile Magazine

    Good news and bad news here. The article itself is quite flattering. HOWEVER, Robert Cumberford (an icon in the field of automotive design) has just posted a column on their site that trashes it: http://www.automobilemag.com/features/by_design/1504-by-design-2016-acura-nsx/

    Interior WTB: NSX Knee Bolster

    I am looking for an NSX knee bolster in good condition. In the service manual, this part is called a 'lower dashboard pad'. Here is a pic of the part for reference: PM me if you have the part and I'll get back to you quickly. Thanks for the help.

    Need some advice on this lower dashboard pad (knee bolster)

    I was taking a fast corner a few days ago when half of the knee bolster flopped onto my leg. When I looked closer, I could tell it had been attached with a glue gun on all but one attachment point. When I completed removing the pad (using directions from this site), I saw that three of the...

    Curious about this part...

    Today my son found this part under the passenger seat: I looked under the glove box and saw this: I'm no genius, but I figured that blue end of the part my son found plugged into the blue part hanging down under the dash. I pluged it in and started the car. The car started but idled so...

    Big thumbs-up to David McDavid NSX of Plano

    I am adapting this from a post I recently added to the "new owner" thread because I wanted to let all of the Texas Primers know about an incredible experience I had with Jason, a service advisor at McDavid Acura in Plano. I had flown to Dallas to purchase a car, but a "check engine" light cam...

    Maintenance in Indianapolis

    Just picked up my "new" '95 NSX-T and drove it 1,000 miles from Dallas to Indy. I would like to have a couple of items addressed, so I'm looking for recommendations. As background, this car was purchased and has had 100% of its servicing done at McDavid Acura of Plano. Therefore, I am...

    Picking up my "new" NSX in Dallas this Friday!

    First, a word to the members of this forum. I read several enthusiast and collector sites on a regular basis, and I rarely see the passion and openness that I see on NSXPrime. I have learned a tremendous amount here while growing my passion for NSX's. That said, after many months of...

    Need Help: Info on VIN JH4NA1182ST000269

    I think I have finally found the NSX I want. It is a '95, red/black, 1 owner. I have been able to find out the service history for the last 10 years by stalking dealerships. Does anyone have any data (carfax, etc) on this vin (JH4NA1182ST000269)? I appreciate the help.

    Looking for info on vin jh4na1186st000694

    It is a 1995 NAX-T, red with a tan interior. I believe it spent a fair amount of time in Canada. I looked on the wiki page, but it was not listed (or I was less-than-competent in my search). I appreciate the help. I was leaning toward a fixed-top coupe, but my wife loves open-top cars (we...
