Never Mind. I found all the info already. It's on this site's wiki. Sorry for your time: http://www.nsxprime.com/wiki/Production_Numbers I have 2005 NSX #19. I was wondering how many were built that model year. I'd also be curious to know how many were built each production year and how...

Thanks to everyone for the advice. FYI I did have the the work done by Robert. He's the fellow mentioned in this section. He came out to my house and replaced the Timing belt, water pump, thermostat, spark plugs, alternator belt, A/C compressor belt all hoses, coolant and brake fluid and...

I called and spoke with Robert. He sent me a list of what parts will cost. He and I are going to coordinate a weekend for him to do the work. I'll post the results. Thanks to everyone who posted and helped me with this. I expect the job will be done right and save me well over $3K. Thanks...

I just called Autowave in Huntington Beach, California after reading about the place here on NSX Prime. Huntington Beach is 125 miles from my house but I'll probably go there. They want to pull the engine to do the timing belt because they don't want to have a mechanic leaning over the car...

I live in Thousand Oaks, California. It's in Ventura County just O/S the L.A. County line. The dealership quoting me is Acura 101 West in Calabasas, CA. Calabasas is where Justin Bieber and a bunch of other celebrities live, so maybe that's why the price is so high. Are there any dealerships...

I have a 2005 NSX with 21K miles on it. Due to its age I want to have all the rubber replaced, timing belt, drive belts, hoses, etc. The dealer wants $2800 to replace the timing belt. That includes a water pump, coolant and drive belts. He also wants $2100 to replace hoses. He told me that...

I have a yellow 2005 (NSX) that my kid loves. He likes the local slot car track but the owner said he couldn't get us a 1/24 NSX slot car for him. I want him to have a car like ours. Any thoughts?

Apparently the new OEM filter is not good. The old one was made in Japan and the new (short) one is no where near as good. When using Mobil 1 synthetic oil, a synthetic element filter should be used but there doesn't seem to be one available for the car. Neither Mobil 1 nor Pure 1 nor Amsoil...

I had been getting a 15400-PL2-004 from the dealer. It's discontinued and I was given a 15400-PL2-505 which is shorter. Should I be concerned? Is there a Mobil 1 filter that will work on the car? It's a 2005.

I never got the refund check. I finally got my money refunded through PayPal. I think Michael was never able to get the MP3 unit and gave me the runaround until he sold some of the pre-04 units and could afford to refund my money. I'd like to know if anyone got one of the MP3 units from Michael.

Michael has been in contact and is sending me a refund check. Looks like mine got lost in the mail. I still want to buy one when he gets more of the MP3 units in.

My unit from Michael still hasn't arrived, but we agreed to a refund if it isn't here tomorrow. I'd rather pay $400 for the stock unit than make modifications for the Alpine badged one. With the Alpine you have to tuck away a long cable. The OEM unit simply plugs in. The stock unit in my car...

I paid $399 because I want to keep the car completely original. If the Alpine unit plays MP3s I'd consider using it and putting the OEM unit away. Which Alpine is it and does it play MP3s? Thanks

With my 05 the mp3 player works great. If you rip CDs to 192kbps they sound evry bit as good as the original CDs themselves. I ordered one of the newer CD changers from the guy mentioned above because I want a backup for my OEM unit should I need it in the future. I want to keep the car...

They have been on ebay for quite a while and have a high rating. The problem may be that I ordered the 04/05 unit that plays MP3s ($419 with shipping). Hopefully it will all get sorted out in a day or two.
