    A+++ for service at Science of Speed and Sound Performance

    Just wanted to give a big thanks to Chris Wilson at Science of Speed. He helped fine-tune my Lovefab turbo-d car. The throttle plate was closing unexpectedly at 6500 RPM. He was able to diagnose the problem in seconds, remotely, via laptop. He then recommended a new air intake temperature...

    Plastic wheel rings needed??

    I just changed my rims from crappy aftermarket ones back to stock (polished) rims. When I took off my old rims, there were these plastic rings around the hubs. I presume these were to "center" the hubs since the aftermarket hub diameter was slightly larger than stock. Do I need these plastic...

    CTSC oil spray "preventer"?

    I recently removed the engine cover to display the NSX's awesome engine and CTSC :cool: . After driving it for about 100 miles, I noticed a small stripe of oil spray on the glass. Has anyone come up with a "oil spray" cover to prevent this from recurring (ie. a cover over the pulley only)...

    I had my CTSC installed on my '95 NSX-T in spring by a local mechanic friend of mine. The car has 19,xxx miles on it, I've had it 3 years now, and never had a problem with it. After the install, it was only SLIGHTLY faster than stock. I did several searches on the potential problems, called...

    '95 NSX Headers - expected hp increase?

    I did a search re: headers and hp increase. I know it will make a big difference on pre '94 models, and mild difference on post '97. The FAQ says that only the exhaust tips were new on the '95 NSX. I know I don't have the cast headers seen on early NSX's, they look like headers. My question...

    Anyone have recommendations for my NSX gas purchasing? My problem is twofold: 1)I work WAY too much 2)crappy Chicago weather. I have driven 100 miles this year, and most of it was on one day. The gas guage is still half full, and it was filled last October.. :( I did have the common sense...
