    Acura NSX Details Emerge - in Today's Autoweek

    Thanks for that link, Ken. Here's a bit more "fleshed out" responses to the same conference call at TOV. http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=1149284 A few real positives about the NSX team manager, Ted Klaus 1) He met with Ito-san and learned what NSX DNA is. Their development...

    Condenser motor fan going bad?

    I just replaced both of mine from acuraoemparts.com 80151-SL0-A01 MOTOR, COOLING FAN 002 1992 NSX list $277.17, discounted $207.88 I went with new rather than rebuilt, as a failing motor after 20+ years is a good goddamn motor.

    5 -6 Speed conversion in a 1991 NSX

    I hear what Ken is saying regarding the bang for the buck, but FWIW, after 225k miles I changed my 1992 5-speed to a 6 from SoS when it was clear that the synchro from 1-2 was worn. Looking back on it now, the 6 speed conversion and the muffler change to the B&B unit after I first bought the...

    Is your NSX failing smog? Read this.

    Glad to hear my experience was helpful, MrTwo. Several NSX owners in So County OC have been shocked as well when the pull the part.

    Interesting cause of Clutch Chatter

    Hi guys Wanted to add "Failing Clutch Master Cylinder" to the list of reasons why the NSX clutch can chatter. My '92 has 249,000 miles on it and just had its second clutch replacement. 1st went at 92k, 2nd started to slip after 225k and was replaced with just a bit of wear on the plate springs...

    A Benchmark for the New NSX: Porsche 918

    An excellent read for any interested in the high performance hybrid powertrain concept that will feature in the new NSX, being done by a company that doesn't turn out garbage. Same concepts: multiple electric motors, regenerative braking, mid-engined powerplant...

    Is your NSX failing smog? Read this.

    Sorry guys was away from the board for a while. In response to LarryB and others, I replaced the sensor because mine was very stained/discolored even after cleaning. Since it was OBDI, I was unable to measure what dif the ECU saw, BUT we did take a 95 at the shop and just wipe down its sensor...

    Is your NSX failing smog? Read this.

    After a complete engine rebuild at 225k miles, I was puzzled that my '92 car failed CA smog, running rich. Turns out a lot of owners here in OC of pre '93 cars are having trouble right now according to the smog shop guys, and it's puzzling to Ramon and the guys at Niguel Motors, who sees NSXs...

    New Promo video came out today

    Don't panic about the 'concept' tag. The NSX was preceded by the NS-X prototype by years. A company president doesn't come out and proclaim the engineering plant and team located in the country of their most important market and just be pretending. It's coming.
