In case anybody from the UK is shopping here, my 1993 manual coupe is now on eBay.co.uk :cool: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1993-HONDA-NSX-RED_W0QQitemZ150323252244QQihZ005QQcategoryZ18206QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I've got the manual open at p 19-31 which shows where the front wheel sensors are, but where are the ones on the rear? I think they're somewhere near the hubs but beyond that, I'm lost.

I wonder whether the "sticky" rear caliper is locking up? To be honest I think I'd feel it but at less than 5mph, who knows?? That might explain the absence of fault codes ( if the rear wheel really is locking up and the ABS kicks in, then that's not a fault, that's its job! ) 1993, standard...

I think because the ABS light isn't illuminating to show a fault while I'm driving the system isn't registering a code for me to download. BUT, there has to be a fault of some kind! This is what happens - When I slow down gradually to make a traffic stop as the car draws to a halt ( around 5mph...

Hi, I'm writing this over lunch and in haste, if it's not clear tell me what you need to know :-) :redface: For quite a while now the ABS has kicked in at slow traffic stops. ( 1993 manual 5sp unmodified ). Thinking it might be a wheel sensor I pulled ( or tried to pull ) the self-diagnosis...

Ejector Seat ( only standard on British models )

"dirty" sounds entirely plausible to me, my alloy wheels wouldn't know a toothbrush if one hit them on the head. The $64,000 Question is, of course, where are the sensors that need a wash and brush up? Are they visible if I leave the wheel in situ or do I have to get my jack and wheel brace out...

NSX tech - thanks - thought it was something peripheral rather than the ABS unit itself. As for the wrench in fan sound effect ( sounds more like the Energiser bunny on bongos to me ) I've always viewed that as norm after a cold start. If the ABS keeps recycling as the car is driven then there...

K20NSX's ABS has started to kick in when I slow up for gentle traffic stops, somewhere around the 5mph mark - if I stomp on the brakes all is well and no warning lights are glowing. Dodgy wheel sensor? She's due for her 108,000 mile service soon - would it be worth asking the mechanics to run...

Although it might seem counter intuitive it is much much easier to replace the bulbs with the headlamp in the OFF/DOWN position :smile:

Hi, I've put up a short series of eight photos covering the replacement of the fog lamp / front spoiler bulbs. They're currently at http://photos.wanadoo.co.uk/album/2647358 but if anybody wants to load them up onto nsxprime and is smart enough to figure out how it's done, feel free :smile:

Hi, Greetings from across the pond. Just wondered if any of you have a "quick'n'easy" way to replace the front driver's side ( that's on the RIGHT over here :biggrin: ) spoiler-mounted foglamp/driving lamp bulb. I read somewhere on here many moons ago that it's an unusual bulb - the UK...

Does anybody here know where the water around the rubber seal between the boot itself and the bodywork drains to at the rear? I can see that water at the front end of the gutters / channels drains forward into spaces below the hinges but I'm often left with large puddles of water at either side...

I just got home from a trip to Kyoto and Tokyo. I saw a single red/black NSX parked in Kyoto and nothing ( nada ) in Tokyo! Just like my trip to Milan where I saw no Ferraris! Brought home 2 die cast 1:43 scale models though ( EBBRO is the brand name to look for ) Have fun :-)

Finally saw it today after years of ownership! I thought it didn't work as you have to play chicken with the fuel gauge for many miles before it finally glows. Even then I could only squeeze 60 litres into a ( nominal ) 70 litre tank, I know the arguments against driving down to the last...
