    Sorry for not replying sooner. I assume you know that the body and most of the suspension bits are aluminum so the only things that corrode tend to be non-aluminum bits like the exhaust; headers; etc. .. I haven't had to replace anything due to 'corrosion' although I did have to replace the...

    Climate Control Unit (CCU) - Capacitor Replacement and Repair

    Sorry for not replying sooner .. it's been a bit of an adventure. For some reason, I'm not being notified of replies to my posts and by the time I saw your post, I had already ordered a new blower as I had come to the same conclusion as you did in the above comment. And since I have over 200k...

    Ha ha .. yes, brain fart! Will have to go back and edit. Yes, I'm still around but have been fully retired for about 6 yrs so don't put on as many miles but still drive it 4 or 5 days a week .. and don't tuck it away for the winter like you do. I was wanting to go south for engine...

    Climate Control Unit (CCU) - Capacitor Replacement and Repair

    I'm starting to wonder if I might the only one with a slightly different blower fan 'bug'. Mine started intermittently not working. It would typically not come on at all at startup with CCU on .. and changing the speed or CCU mode settings would not cause it to come on .. yet, it would...

    I'm a little late posting this but as of Sept 14, I'm officially in the 200k club. I say 'officially' since the odometer now shows it but I've been over 200k for a while since I run 60 series snow tires in the winter (instead of stock 50s) which add an extra 6% or so. I'd guess for the 11...

    New from Jamestown NC

    Tks Old Guy for referencing that old thread .. although there's likely no good 'quick/cheap' news in it for the OP. Although some of the other posts reported similar failures, to my knowledge it was never mentioned in any NSX buying guide that I had ever read so unfortunately tough luck for OP...

    Denso vs Duralast vs. Bosch vs. NAPA alternator

    I just removed mine recently and something that you might want to know is that the electrical connector just pulls out. It was clear to me at the time whether there was some kind of thing which held it in place .. or whether it needed to be rotated before pulling it out .. but just pulling it...

    New Corvette hurt NC sales?

    I think it was an early compare chart against competitors that Car and Driver or one of the other mags did who said the 3366 was without fluids so the 3600 was their projection of what a real life weight would be.

    New Corvette hurt NC sales?

    C8 Corvette I watched it as well .. but not in the market. The usual GM over-the-top marketing hype. Had to laugh at some of the 'cab forward/fighter pilot' comments like they were discovering the benefits of mid-engine for the first time. Some thoughts to get the discussion started: 1. I...

    Oil Pressure

    Warren, tks very much for the feedback. I've been out of the country but back now so it's on my list of things to do. Good to hear it solved your problem .. so probably mine too. This is probably one of those things that the designers of the switch never anticipated .. that we would be...

    AC Condenser fan rebuild

    It's been almost a decade since I did this so the memories are a bit dim but I did remove the whole fan/shroud thing and vaguely recall struggling a bit to find and get to the bumper ends of those bolts .. I think it was from underneath and behind the bumper. Not terribly hard to do but when...

    Finally reached 200K+

    Tks for the comments and perspectives. I do have baffles but haven't tracked it since SMMR in Vegas in 2010. Re: your 300k comment .. yes, I know of a few .. most of my miles were highway miles and it's been well maintained most of it's life so I'm not particularly worried about the motor...

    Finally reached 200K+

    Congrats! I'm just a couple of 1000 behind you. So, what are your future plans for the engine? I'm due for major service and am wondering if it's time for an engine refresh. I'm not burning any oil and compression is even but getting to be near minimums. I gather that high mileage bores...

    Oil Pressure

    Maybe you don't drive yours enough to notice but although mine typically reads close to zero, on some days it will suddenly jump up to around 4 and then after warming up, it will drop off closer to zero again. An increase in RPMs will often also cause it to rise a bit .. but it never just sits...
