I tried those two back to back and it does really make a difference. Regarding the festoon bulbs for the interior, the 3022-CWHP2 is a lot brighter than what you ordered. I'd get that one at least for the dome light.

Not sure why your x6 doesn't fit, as it's referenced over and over in this thread. But if you compare its picture against other bulbs at the following link you'll see that it's quite a bit larger in diameter. Perhaps it's been redesigned recently. http://superbrightleds.com/mini-wedge.html But...

... and your clutch will suffer. At my last smog check the tech stalled the car and restarted it, which re-activated the TCS. Before i could intervene he was burning up my clutch trying to overcome the TCS. Careful with the Pennysaver route.

I don't know which post you're referring to, but i've posted here previously that the weight savings for the rear bumper beam is only about 6 lbs. The front beam doesn't appear to have changed at all.

our friend at american honda recently told me that the RE040s on his company car did not have left/right indicators as the previous OEM tires. he therefore believes that the RE040 is not corner specific even though i pointed out that all four had different part numbers.

that must have been a solo 2 event and those courses are usually very tight and not a good measure of ability for these cars. it may come down to which one had to fight the course less (i.e. less push). there are no long straights to play out horsepower advantages. what counts instead is torque...

bumper beam weight the difference is about 6 lbs. that's for the rear; it doesn't appear the front has been changed. larry long did the conversion and his weight measurements were 22 and 15.8 lbs. someone here on this board reported coming across a figure of 5.5 lbs for the differential, but...

not according to the tire rack, which i believe coined the term "max performance" and places all P zero versions into this category. of course, max performance is just a marketing label and more reflective of price tag and fancy technologies than actual performance. all-season in contrast is a...

the RE040 spec sheet shows four different part numbers for the NSX (in contrast to the other OEM applications listed). so this tire appears to be corner specific afterall, with built-in bias, like the earlier OEM tires for the NSX.

here is the A022 weight info i obtained from yokohama several years ago: 205/50-15 21.16 lbs. 225/50-16 25.79 215/45-16 21.3 245/40-17 25.9 in summary, while the 16/17" wheels are about 7 lbs heavier than the 15/16", the tire weight is practically the same.

i opted to send just the amp to bose. easier to package and cost a little less (~$60). came back after a few weeks repaired, not replaced with new, as i was led to believe up front. two capacitors were replaced and i hope those are the only ones that routinely burn out, otherwise the amp will...

i've had good experience with european auto body in escondido, although not with my nsx. this shop specializes on mercedes and porsche, but has worked on the nsx and is busy enough to turn away lower end cars. talk to chuck, one of the owners, at 760-741-8013.

you received the 2002 part. you can see that clearly from the high-resolution interior pictures available here. the same happened to me recently when i ordered this button for my '93 along with a few '02 parts. i was able to clean my old button, so it became a moot issue.

the s2000 antenna supposedly does not fit through the opening in the nsx's fender. what you want is this: http://www.locustom.com/miniracing_kit.htm these threads discuss this antenna and have pictures: http://www.nsxprime.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/003193.html...

the japanese company revolution makes testarossa style side view mirrors that mount where they belong - on the triangular section. you can see them in the nsx edition of hyperrev (vol. 32) on page 113. they look nice but are a little small. i also like revolution's fixed headlight buckets. could...
