    How do you mentally deal with major traffic on a daily basis

    I went through this same thing a few years ago. Then I totally changed my morning routine and now it's so much better. I actually look forward to driving now. First, I got a new car. I went from a DelSol to a 4Runner. The truck is so much quieter and smoother and makes for a very comfortable...

    Ultimate NSX wheel guide!

    Anyone get new wheels in the last couple years and would like to post pics? I got the bad news today - cracked rim on one of my 5zigen super six wheels. Unfortunately they no longer make them. Looking at pictures of wheels without seeing them on the car is tough for me to imagine. Thanks guys.

    New memeber (DFW) - timing belt

    I just had mine done at Goodson. They charge about $1900 for the TB service. They accidentally quoted me a lower price and honored the price given. The mechanic Curtis is great and you can expect quality work. Personally I think their prices are ridiculous and doubt I'll go back unless it's...

    DFW Weekend Meet-Up & BBQ @ SCW Performance 5:30pm-10:00pm Saturday July 11, 2015

    Dang, I'll be in OK for the weekend. Have fun - I've been wanting to meet everyone and check out Jeremy's shop.

    Are these prices reasonable for service?

    Long story short, a new guy quoted me the wrong price of $1085 for the TB service. It sounded fair so I brought the car in and was told $1900. They were great and honored the quoted price, which I appreciated. But now I can't help but feel like the other prices are greatly inflated to make up...

    Are these prices reasonable for service?

    Hey guys, please enjoy the boring post. I'd like to get your input on a quote from a dealership. I took the garage queen into the dealership to have the timing belt and tires replaced and to do a big inspection of the entire car. In return I received a beautiful 4-color report of all the stuff...

    Dallas area mechanics

    Do you guys also have any tire store recommendations? Currently I take the 4Runner to Discount Tire off of Arapaho near Addison but not sure if they would be good for the NSX. Thanks for dealing with an old thread - I should have asked at the beginning.

    Dallas area mechanics

    Two questions: - Do you guys have any recommendations for mechanics in the Dallas area? There was a recent post for David McDavid in Plano but I'd rather not use a dealership if possible. - Is the NSX old enough where most reliable mechanics can work on it? Resh Bass Auto in Plano does great...

    Anyone ever own a Del Sol?

    Ditto - have an NSX and had a DelSol until a few months ago. I liked it so much that I gave it to a family member with the only condition of letting me know before they decide to sell it. It has over 320,000 miles and still runs great. It's beat up after being in multiple wrecks and years of...

    Recommend me another handgun!!!

    Just like the NSX, the Sig P229 Equinox is both reliable and sexy as hell. Don't get it if you don't like sharing.

    Picking up a black Del Sol to be my stablemate.

    The DelSol is damn near bullet proof. It's been hit about twice on every side and the mileage is at 298500. It looks like hell - the once red paint is now a nice dull pink. I can park it anywhere and people stear clear of it at all costs - probably because it looks like it's uninsured or the...

    Got to love Facebook....

    I'm unsure of which bandwagon to jump on. I tend to wish the worst on the ones that have broken up with me (for about 1 year after) but the best success for the ones I've hurt/left. The NSX community seems to be a group of upstanding people and I don't think that CL65 Captain is an...

    can't make this up:Founder of Islamic TV station accused of beheading wife

    Maybe I'm in the minority here but I believe that religion can create structure and meaning to peoples' lives and can help develop meaningful relationships. It's no surprise that some use if for their own selfish reasons and create misery for others but that happens outside of religion. Most...

    How many aviators do we have?

    Currently flying a Diamond Eclipse DA-20 and Diamond Star DA-40, preparing for my IFR checkride. I'm a little short on the Cross-Country time so my buddy (Lufthansa Pilot) and I got a couple hours in last night. The headwind was so bad on the return that cars were passing us on the highway -...

    The VP Debate

    Both parties think they need to come to my rescue when really all I want is a party that will leave me the hell alone. We’re either going to be socialist wimps or capitalistic pricks. Where is the party of socially liberal/fiscally conservative?

    Discount OEM Parts

    I called Tim at Ray Laks Acura for the first time on Monday. Great guy! I can't imagine ordering OEM parts from anyone else now. He spoke with me like I knew him for years and he was incredibly helpful. He even helped me find a part for the ol' clunker DelSol I have. Such a great...

    Another VeilSide NSX sighted!

    The front is nice...but the back is, well,...has anyone ever seen that movie Short Circuit? I just picture that robot Johnny 5 or someone crunching some mini-blinds together.

    GM, the new Hyundai

    Lately, there seems to be quite a bit of discussion regarding the new C6. Yes, the new C6 is quite impressive with its gobs of power and improved interior. This will certainly be of great attraction to many current NSX owners. The interior has finally reached the stratospheric heights of Kia...

    another a/c question

    NSXDreamer2 I'm interested to know what you find out about our Jekyll and Hyde A/C as mine is behaving the same way. Start the car and it's ice cold - sometimes stays that way, sometimes not. A couple weeks ago the humidity was relatively high and it suddenly stopped working and the windows...

    All tricked out and ready to fly

    Growling like an evil beast, the fighter slowly emerged from the darkness of its hanger. The hot Tennessee sun reflected off the canopy, burning my retina's as if to punish me for my unbended knee. Without pause, the fighter transitioned from the ramp onto the taxiway, sequenced for departure...
