    parking light bulb replacement

    Hope someone can give me a pointer or two...I've read the bulb replacement FAQ here (http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/Accessories/lights.htm) but can't find the mentioned screw that loosens the light assembly. Is it visible or just something I have to feel for? Not sure what is meant by a "captive...

    knock in top end

    ...or at least that's where it seems to be coming from. Haven't driven it in a few days and just went to back it out of the garage to change the oil - started it up and the racket that I've always heard for the first couple of seconds after starting the car, now doesn't go away. Worn timing...

    That looks great. What's it based on, a Fiero?

    Shift knobs

    Now I'm quoting myself, good grief. Anyone know if the 'other' SoS NSX-R type knob (the non titanium one) has the 6-speed pattern on it? It doesn't say so, but ya never know.

    Shift knobs

    I just noticed a 2nd NSX-R type knob on the SOS site. Has that always been there? It's the TAITEC NSX-R knob which is almost the same as the 'other' knob, except that it doesn't have the 6-speed pattern on it. It also doesn't look quite as well finished - looks like they stopped the polishing...

    Shift knobs

    Good idea to cover it with something. Heat is surely an issue - I can't count how many times I've branded myself on the DOHC emblem on the console.

    Shift knobs

    It reminds me of the old round shift knobs everybody (who didn't have one of the Hurst T handles) used way-back-when.

    I prefer the type R knob. But then I'm an old muscle-car type.

    Oil change poll

    I do it myself. At the dealer I can never be positive that they put in the oil (synthetic) that I ask for. But, it is a pain in the butt, esp if you put the car up on jack stands all the way around and too much work if you don't have a quick floor jack. Next time I will try one of the short...
