    Black, 1991, Manual, Bone Stock, 2nd owner in 2018

    Thanks for the tips Old Guy. Especially the parts link. I'm unsure what the shop did, but I'll call them on Tuesday and talk to them. For the price I paid, it should have been fixed. They assured me that the would stand behind their work. I guess we are going to see.

    Black, 1991, Manual, Bone Stock, 2nd owner in 2018

    Well, the alignment is ok, but I need a RR toe-link in the future. Idle surge still there. Time to start the hunt for an Idle Control Valve.

    Black, 1991, Manual, Bone Stock, 2nd owner in 2018

    There's been a lot that happened since I posted last. I'll try to update that later. But currently I am having an Idle Surging Issue. I took the car to an independent workshop, who services another NA1 NSX, here in Richmond. They found some possible causes: 1) A/C Compressor Belt tension was...

    Burning Oil Smell

    Small Update (and sorry for taking so long to respond to the awesome info) 1) The Acura dealership replaced the front valve cover gasket. 2) The Acura dealership also replaced the "Front Plugs". I assume they mean the caps on the ends of the cams, on the front bank, but it is an assumption...

    Burning Oil Smell

    Small update (for me to remember, but also hopefully for future searches). Took car to another Acura dealer to have the work from the last dealer confirmed. This new dealer found more (new) leaks, but said the solenoids were not leaking. This was confirmed with fluorescent oil dye. I will be...

    Burning Oil Smell

    Thanks for the input Old Guy. That is super helpful. I'll do some shopping around and see what can be found for cheap and then start poking around, as you suggested.

    Burning Oil Smell

    Hey all, This is going to be a little lengthy, but that is to provide details. Short Summary: Car smells of burning oil, even after turning off with less than 2 miles driving. Request: Things to check? Common occurrence? Odd-ball things to look for? Ok, so now on to the crazy-detail...

    Push-Pin Part Number Request

    I've been looking unsuccessfully for the last 2 hours for part numbers. The parts I'm looking for are shown in this pic. It is basically the two different styles of push-pins that hold the plastic cowl-cover down. Part numbers and/or sources would be helpful.

    Michigan check-in & spotting by blodi pt.2

    Hey all, I've moved away from Michigan now, but still keeping track of the goings on. Have fun at the Woodward event. I'll send some buddies over that still live in the area. Oh, and I forget if I've ever posted this or not, but before I moved away from the DTW area, my car was featured in a...

    WTB NSX rolling chassis or NSX with broken (or no) engine

    I have a high mileage car (that still runs and has an engine). Might suit you. I'd even drive it to Texas for you. (Used to live there and miss it) PM if you think that might work.

    91-99 Black NSX wanted

    I meet some of your requirements. 1991, Black outside, Accident Free, only very slight mods (K&N air filter, radio) I'm near Detroit, so not a huge drive from T.O. But it is a U.S. car. If you aren't finding what you're looking for, keep me in mind.

    7k rpm rev limit and no VTEC

    Thanks for the fast response. I'm wondering if the mechanic is thinking that the middle gasket (held by the red dot bolts in the first link) are the "body" leak. I think I may just order the gaskets and give it a whirl. But I do still have the cam plugs and oil pan to figure out. Maybe wait...
