    5-Speed 5th Gear Issues

    Hey Prime-mates, I'm having an issue with my 5-speed transmission 2-3 years after I rebuilt it. At the moment, while shifting into 5th gear above ~40mph, my synchro doesn't seem to engage properly at first and I get a gear grind or buzz for a second going into gear. Regardless it always ends up...

    Powertrain Used LMAs - Updated Spring-Style

    Up for sale is a complete used set of 12 updated spring-style LMAs, pictures below. They show normal wear marks on the tops, the rest is just dirt from storage. Note that these don't have the small spacers on the bottom of the spring, which I think means these are the year 2000+ version...

    Brakes New 97+ Honda OEM Brake Rebuild Kits

    Selling brand new in-package OEM brake rebuild kits for 97+ calipers, 4 total for front & rear. I accidentally bought these instead of 91-96 rebuild kits which have different piston sizes so those seals are incompatible. The kits include all rubber seals and piston/pin boots, banjo bolt...

    Lookin' for a Shine GT front lip/spoiler, aka "NA1 NSX Spec-GT Front Lip Spoiler". Prefer FRP, condition not a big deal as long as it's not split in half. Thought I'd put out a post before ordering new since lead times are long.

    Rear Camber Correction

    Primates, I've lowered my car on coilovers as most owners are wont to do, and now my rear camber is too negative for my liking and tire life. By eyeball I think I'm around -3.5° or less, before lowering I was at about -2.5°. I just bought a DIY alignment kit and will check actual camber once I...

    Alternate front tires sizes: 235/40-17 and 205/40-17

    Somewhat of a beginner question from me. When you say using a 235/40-17 tire up front will obviously rub, do people go ahead and run that size anyways for a track-only tire since you might not care as much about rubbing, or would you put on spacers if possible to make more room? Or only possible...

    I know everyone's been waiting with bated breath for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own my used low-mileage stock automatic transmission removed from my 1990 JDM NSX for a transmission swap to manual. The transmission had no issues when removed, all shifts were smooth, confident...

    Selling my set of 4 used A/T spec engine mounts from my 1990 JDM NSX, ~45,000 miles and est. 30 years of action when removed. The rubber on some mounts has visible cracking so they would be good cores/candidates for the SoS mount refresh program, Cedar Ridge kit, or a DIY urethane/windowweld...

    Front Wheel Alignment Issue

    Hi all, not sure whether this is better in DIY or Suspension so here we are. I finally got my car aligned this week and the front right camber couldn't be brought into spec. I knew the lower FR had been repaired from an impact at some point in the last 30 years but I hadn't noticed an issue...

    Intermittent EPS/MIL Codes

    Hi all, Figured I'd post a new thread here to start a discussion about an issue I've been having that I haven't been able to figure out. Basically, after about an hour of driving my '90 NSX, some combination of things will happen, sometimes all at once, sometimes just one: -Speedometer starts...

    5-Speed Countershaft Reverse Gear Clocking

    Me again... I'm putting my old reverse gear back onto my new NSX-R 4.23 countershaft and notice both the gear and shaft have oil holes at the same "height". Of course, the FSM doesn't show anything about these holes and I didn't take note of how the gear came off when I was pressing it. How am...

    5-Speed Gears & Mainshaft Replacement
