I plan to keep my NSX for a good 10 years plus. There will come a day when NSXs will be very hot on the classic car market. If you study this market you will notice that it is cars which were revolutionary, outstanding, desirable, and extremely significant to their manufacturer which go on to...

I have just bought a pair of rear Bridgestone S02s for my 1993 NSX. The rims are the original ones, hence the 225/50/16 tires. However I was rather disappointed that the tires do not cover the edge of the rim giving the appearance that the tire is a size narrow for the rim. Has anyone else...

Anyone who just looks at the max BHP or MPH or 0-60 figures is missing the point. In the real world what really matters is how this power is delivered. When I drive my NSX (3.0 1993)I find that the car only starts "going" after 5000rpm, by which time any staight 6 or V8 that delivers its max...

We must not forget that the stock NSX is a 12 year old design. Although 270ish BHP was considerable in 1990, its not more than average in 2002. Look how the current direct competitors from Porsche(911) and Ferrari(355 & 360) have between 350 -400 BHP. I think anyone who expects an NSX to have...

I cannot believe what I am reading! Here in the UK, Lotus stands for Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious. I like many have had a crush on an Esprit Turbo for many years. Who said that product placement does not work! They knew what they were doing when they used the Espit in James Bond, Pretty...

Sounds like that's the cause of your problem right there.[/B] Yes, but what is the cause of the warning lights, and are they as a direct result of the speed sensor damage?

Hi guys, I was messing around in my 1993 NSXs engine bay when I accidentally damaged the speed sensor conection. As a result my speedometer does not now work. Whilst waiting for a date to the dealer for repair, both the yellow TCS light and the yellow engine warning light came on a few...

ok so the A022 was designed for the NSX, but that was 12 years ago! Surely tire technology has moved on since then. Are we not making comprimises by sticking to an old tire instead of exploring a modern alternative. Is there no modern tire which is similar to the A022?

We here in the uk have a problem acquiring Yokohama A022s. Not only are they impossible to get hold of, but they are very expensive compared to everything else. My local NSX dealer has suggested I try the Bridgestone alternative - RE010, but these have now been discontinued. They have...

I have a 1993 NSX with the 15/16 standard wheels. The tires on the car are not OEM and now need replacing. I am wondering which is the best option to go for: 1. Put on the OEM tire (Yokohama A022) 2. Go for a bigger size alloy 17/18 but then I dont know which is the best tire as this is a non...

Does anyone have any manuals or diagrams of the engine and gearbox as I would like to do some maintenance myself. Is there a workshop manual for the NSX?

Thanks to everyone who chipped in with advice and suggestions regarding my NSXs handling. The problem of the mediocre handling is down to the tires. The tires on the car when I bought it were Avon ZZ1, 205/50/15, 225/50/16, and although the wear is not a problem, they are absolutely rubbish...

I recently changed my 1995 BMW 328 for a NSX 1993 manual car (prior to power steering and 16/17 inch wheels). Although the straight line speed is fantastic, I feel very nervous about the cars steering/handling. The steeering seems reluctant to turn sharply and through a fast bend the car seems...
