Hi! I bump into (or rather encounter) other local NSXr's from time to time. I just found out about a dinner event that'll be happening tomorrow night (Thursday July 21st). If you can make it here are the details: NSXCA president, Wei-Shen Chin will be visiting the Vancouver area this week...

Just kidding, actually can't remember exactly where that restaurant was, somewhere between Nelson and Calgary. We went to Drumheller and the car drew a bit of attention in the parking lot for the Dinosaur Museum. A fellow there ran over to the car, looked in one side, then ran over to the other...

For breakies or brunches, I'm in anytime on a weekend.

I feel the same. I just started a thread just see what sort of opinions are out there on paddles. I'm excited about the prospects of a new NSX, but if it only comes with paddles... ick.

Thought I'd post something to see how others feel about this. Personally, I think they're great on a race car, when quick shifts help to win, but there's just something about the feel of a foot clutch and a standard shifter that increases the joy of driving for me. I tried out an SMG M3 and...

I've a 92 NSX and had a lot of work done a Burrard Acura in Vancouver. They're a pretty good bunch there. Last year I put in an ACT clutch and Hewie, one of the service guys was trying his best to get me to put in the Japanese gears while the transmission was out of the car. He mentioned that...

I find it pretty amazing as well. I feel very conspicuous whenever I go out. I've got the I'm not worthy wave a couple of times ( I usually do it back, best as I can from inside the car). Driven slowly down Robson St. in Vancouver on a Summer evening with the windows down and heard whispers of...

Sure, count me in. Something fun to do might be an early morning breaky at the Flying Swan at 1724 West 4th. Generally lots of NSX friendly parking weekend mornings along 4th (unless there's a sport bike event, it's predominately a sport bikers hangout). Bob.

Hi, I had to replace both sensors on my 92 about a year ago when the car had about 100,000 kilometers (60,000 miles). Where I live, annual emissions test are required. It failed miserably with the bad sensors, and now has no detectible monoxides and very low hydrocarbon emissions. I was told by...

I've driven stick for about 30 years (showing my age now) and have had other high performance cars, some with over 400hp and I've never seen a clutch go as fast as on my NSX. That said though, I've never had a vehicle with as complex a clutch setup as in the NSX, and I've never had anyone coach...

Hi, thanks for the rapid input. I'm a smoothy on the clutch, which sounds like a bad thing to be. Given how expensive clutch changes are, I'll work at changing my ways. I never ride the clutch, but do firmly, but smoothly engage it. I bought the car at 88,000 km and just threw on my third set...

I bought my 92 NSX about two years ago. I replaced the clutch about six months after purchasing it. I just took it to a dealer and let them put in the stock kit. It's about 1.5 years and 45,000 km later, and well, my clutch is slipping again! I thought the clutch should last longer, but the...
