Still on hold. I am knee deep in the restoration of a '62 MB 190SL and my NSX refuses to start in my storage unit. Looking through the NSX manuals tonight to find what the problem could be. I will post here as soon as I have the work done. Thanks for your interest.

Solution to my Shock Problem
Thanks everyone for the great discussion. I decided to go with the B6 Bilsteins on all four corners because the car IS 30 years old and I have a reliable NSX Tech where I live right now. Only one shock is leaking, but I got my money's worth out of the original...
More Information
There is one shock with a slight leak, the other three are fine. Going back in the paperwork, the original shocks have never been replaced. Mileage on the car is 90K (1991) and there is little "return" remaining when you press down on front or rear ends. With two people in...
Correction
Sorry, I didn't answer your question correctly. You are correct, the OEM part is no longer available in the U.S. The dealership is using their approved replacement part for the price quote. No particular brand specified on their sheet just a replacement parts #and generic picture.

Hey guys:
Am at the dealership this morning. Need to replace my original springs/shock arrangement on all four corners as they have NEVER been replaced. Of course, very expensive from the dealer. Is there another source where I can order the ORIGINAL replacements online? Don't race the car...
Hi everyone:
I have a Comptech Sport rear engine brace installed on my '91 that I would like to trade to someone for the stock brace (please see attached pictures). I am trying to get my car back to OEM specs for AACA judging in February (which should be an absolute hoot if you are familiar...
Just wanted to give everyone an update on what I finally did with my power antenna. After multiple tries to repair my original power antenna with the factory replacement mast, I gave up and bought a new O.E.M. power antenna from eBay. The quote from my excellent Acura dealership in SLC was...

Larry:
Good point. I'll double-check it to see if there might still be a piece inside from the original tail. I have let this project slide while working on another car, but will get back on it to close out the original post.
Larry, side question while I have your attention: in your...
Thanks, guys for your advice. I installed an Interstate MT7-34R, the listed replacement for an automatic. Fit securely under the bracket. It was an amazing $255 dollars but what can you say? It's my NSX!
