Recently acquired a 1992 NSX 5spd with 69k miles (http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/179349-The-one-that-*almost*-got-away)
The car has some deferred maintenance that I know needs to get done. But after reading and researching posts for a while on prime, I think I've gotten paranoid to the point of replacing things before they break. Labor will likely be done at an independent NSX mechanic.
According to my PPI, here's what for sure needs to get done to make the car mechanically sound (#'s 1 and 2):
1. TB/WP:
<tbody>
</tbody>2. Cam Plugs
(4) 12513-PR7-A00 RUBBER, HEAD COVER SEAL (cam plugs)
I was also thinking at the same time:
3. All other rubber Gaskets:
<tbody>
</tbody>
Would you do all of the above, knowing that only the cam seals are weeping and TB is over due because of time? Or should I wait? Is there significant savings to labor to have the items 3-7 replaced at the same time?
Sorry for the exhaustive list. I've posted it on here to also help people with their search for part numbers. Above listed is for a 1992 NSX 5spd.
Thanks PRIME!
