    Caster Adjustment Seized

    I'm afraid I can't help much as I never got mine unseized - I still have the car. After all the advice I got about 6 months later it was in for something else and got it re-checked and the new check measured the camber as in tolerance. As the car drove fine apart - from a slight push when you...

    What does this adjust?

    Thanks guys. Yes the allignment shop did know what to adjust as they do all the alignment for the local NSX dealer. Thanks for the tip on sliding the frame forwards I will have a look at that. Presumably it moves the bottom of the compliance joint but not the top so that would make a lot of...

    What does this adjust?

    Just had the car alignment done and there is not enough movement on the left hand side to get the required 8 degrees :confused: , the adjustment only allows a maximum of 5 degrees on full movement. Any ideas what might cause this apart from something being bent? Nothing looks bent to me...

    What does this adjust?

    Hi guys, I have now managed to reduce the pictures so here goes - one last try: If you look at the mushroom shaped casting in the centre of picture below (left hand side of the car) you will see that this casting is closer to the casting below it compared to the right hand side (next posting)...

    What does this adjust?

    Gerald, thanks for that as Larry says that does explain it very well. A typical Honda solution, complex but very clever. I have been on track once with the car and am amzed how flat it feels on a "Standard" setup but how good the ride is. I guess this is one of the main reasons. I have now...

    What does this adjust?

    J14NSX, I have seen NSXCB now but only came acroos it recently - I will keep an eye on it. I was going to post re alignment but noticed someone else beat me to it. I was going to try Micheldever but I think I may try the Southampton guy as he sounds as though he may be able to help especially...

    What does this adjust?

    No I don't think I would understand judging by my description either. One more go. The compliance adjuster is bolted to the car at a fixed point, but the part of the compliance adjuster that the wishbones are attached to can be adjusted up and down by the looks of things. This means that on...

    What does this adjust?

    Thanks for that, I had looked at the manual and it didn't mention anything about this anywhere. All other parts it goes into great detail but not this. It would effect the ride height but I don't know what else and whenver I speak to anybody over here (UK), they say they don't touch it and have...

    What does this adjust?

    Hi guys, I have a question regarding the front compliance assembly. Sorry it is long and involved but it is difficult to explain. When looked at from the side the compliance adjuster has a mushroom shaped casting half way up and this in turn is above another casting. The gap between these 2...

    Ebay nsx water pump listing

    Thanks Larry, I think I may start trying to buy bits from the states from now on wherever possible that is about a third of the price at most. Michael.

    Ebay nsx water pump listing

    I have just had the water-pump replaced on my Singapore sourced NSX over here in the UK and the price was £550 (about $880 I think). As a matter of interest how much would that part be in the US? Michael. P.S. Sorry for the thread hijack.

    Caster Adjustment Seized

    Thanks guys for the replies. I don't think anything is bent as one caster adjuster side is at one limit and the other is at the other if you see what I mean. This ties in with the rest of teh suspension when I first got the car. The adjustment was miles out. Everything else has now been...

    Caster Adjustment Seized

    Hi, I am new to the NSX so please bare with me if this question has been asked before although I have done a search. I have just had the tracking checked and the Caster is 4 degrees one side and 8 degrees the other. But the caster adjusters have both seized solid. I have soaked them in WD40 but...
