It would be interesting the see the numbers on compression and leak-down tests on one of these high milage cars.
A metric tach is one with denominators based on a decimal base, and in which the relevant numerator is arrived at by simply moving the decimal point. On a metric tachometer, when the indicator needle points at the 5, for example, you would multiply that by the factor of 1000 or by moving the decimal point to the right three places to arrive at 5000 (rpm). I've never seen a tach that that wasn't metric, and that's a good thing.
Sorry, but I don't apologize for my humor. Sorry.
here's a pic with the speedo in miles.
That is amazing... You're my new hero.
When did they move the TCS light? looks like yours is in the tach, mine ('95) is in the upper right section of the gauge cluster.

So if service records are provided, and the car of coarse is checked out before purchase at a local shop or Acura dealership, and if the water pump/timing belt have been replaced(i think thats what everyone said the 2 major problems are)....would a 140k mileage nsx even be something to worry about?
I only ask because for the price range im looking at, i will only be able to afford a 91-94 nsx with over 110k miles and up. And i will only be driving it about 7,000 miles a year at most.

You sure the mileage in the photo below isn't in KM? I've never seen a blue lower indicator for the coolant temp in a US spec car.
Yeah, probably. However, aren't all nsx's oil pressure measured in kg/cm2?
Unless I'm mistaken ALL of the guages on the NSX are metric except for the US cars in which the Speedometer was changed out to support the Imperial system which is only used in the US. Everywhere else in the world would of course utilize Metric with the speedo in Kilometers.:wink: The Fuel and Temperature are of course bilingual because they simply use high and low settings. I'm not certain on there being a metric equivalent measurement used for Voltage?Yeah, probably. However, aren't all nsx's oil pressure measured in kg/cm2?

I was laughing too, but I "think" it was being referenced as such because of the 1K multiple. That said though it still wouldn't be metric because metric is base 10, not base 1000.... Time to stop guessing and just enjoy the laugh. :biggrin:There's not.
The metric tach thing made me lol.
I just hit 370,000! :smile: I have seen threads now, though, that there are some higher mileage ones out there. ...wonder why they never posted in here?

There was one on craigslist about 8 months ago with over 400k on it. There was a pic of the odo. There was a thread about it as well.
