    How many gallons do you put in when your gauge reads empty?

    Ok, so doing an experiment I drove until the needle was pretty much on E and filled the tank. 14.5 Gallons! That means that reading empty I still have 4 gallons in the tank? Is that what everybody else experiences with their gauges?

    Pulling EPS fuse - Risky?

    Hey, So I'm back living in the US and finally getting the chance to enjoy my NSX. Had all the seals and gaskets replaced at Hillside Auto in Daly City along with a timing belt job and the oil leak I was experiencing on my last visit to the US has been solved and the car is running beautifully...

    Anybody have a Navdy? Does it look OK in the NSX cockpit?

    My feeling now is that it might be too bulky to look good in the NSX. I'd need to see it done. For now my phone vent mount is OK for nav and I really don't mind linking the tape deck to my old ipod nano for tunes. Fits perfect in the ashtray space.

    "Squeak" in steering when turning left

    Any ideas? Reading on old threads says that there is a clicking noise when the steering rack is going. It's definitely not a clicking noise and the steering seems totally fine. No EPS light either. What suspension components could it be? Tie rods?

    Missing cover for OBD port...available?

    So there is a port cover that my car doesn't have that's located below the passenger side dash...is there anywhere this part is available? Not a huge deal, but I'd buy it if it's out there. Thanks!

    Valve Cover Gasket replacement

    Is it that easy? I've never done anything on a car beyond changing the oil/air filter/sparkplugs and that was on an old jeep in which it was all very straightforward (and that you could crawl under without any trouble). I'm definitely not afraid to get my hands dirty but I don't want to be...

    "Squeak" in steering when turning left

    One other issue I noticed, when I make left turns there is a small audible squeak...any ideas what that might be? There is no difference in the steering speed turning left or right and the functionality appears to be absolutely normal...just when I turn the wheel to the left it makes a small...

    Valve Cover Gasket replacement

    Hey everybody, So I was in the US for a couple weeks and I got to drive my black 2002 around. Great fun! I did however uncover a small oil leak coming from the valve cover gasket which is going to need to be replaced. Any idea on how much this runs? Estimates online are pretty reasonable...

    Prospective owner - introduction and questions

    Yeah craigslist can be hit or miss. But I wouldn't rule it out if the car inspects well. I think Prime is the place to go because my own experience is that the NSX Community here is a very savvy group of people. Anytime someone posts an iffy ad, or one that's full of dealer-copy BS (i.e. this...

    Buyers BEWARE of this Car: JH4NA1289TT000298 1996 Acura NSX Automatic in Costa Mesa

    Hey NSXvice, I don't know if you are still in the market for an automatic NSX, but I thought I'd give you a heads up that this one has been on the market for over a year with a ton of price drops. It's been listed for sale since I first started looking at NSXs in April 2016...

    Anybody done the Pacific Coast Highway drive?

    Might make sense to take 101 until I can bypass it in that case

    Anybody done the Pacific Coast Highway drive?

    Hey everybody, So I'll be visiting the bay at the end of the month where I keep my NSX garaged and I'm thinking while I'm home I can do the Pacific Coast Highway drive down the coast to visit family in San Diego and maybe some old friends in LA. Anyone do this one before? Any recommendations...

    Buyers BEWARE of this Car: JH4NA1289TT000298 1996 Acura NSX Automatic in Costa Mesa

    Ok so it sounds like he should be good to get one with both a targa top and a paddle shifter then. If I was in the market for an auto I'd definitely insist on the paddle shift version!
