Thanx all for the responses, and to Mark for the good news. It's good news these days when anyone's working and (presumably) making money, and good news for all your customers if you're booked 10 days out. My NSX and I both sleep better knowing you're still operating here in the valley and...

Could anyone tell me if Mark Basch is still operating his shop in PHX, and if so, is there a handy current e-mail address for the shop/him - or/and a current phone number for the shop/him? Thanx - RR '93 BLK/BLK

Well, looks like I'll be disappointed. Just had time to do a quick scan to ensure that it did air and did get recorded, but from what I could tell this show appears to be a 're-badged' show which aired some time ago on "The History Channel" as part of their Automobiles series; not a "new"...

Just a quick FYI note re: a TV show I happened across in the listings. Might have been posted already - don't really have time to search right now. Haven't seen it, so I don't know how good it is. Network: History International Series: Voyages Episode title: Automobiles:Honda NSX Duration...

Just for the record, I'm going to attempt (the impossible) to offer a general comment about Honda, while avoiding the exact specifics of the snap ring problem (or this instance thereof) almost entirely. It's generally true that most automakers fix problems at no charge, or "goodwill" repairs...

I did a quick search and didn't turn this up, so thought I'd mention it just in case. I caught a nice :30 show on Speed back on 11/05 titled "Honda at Speed", (which was followed by one of TK's :30 Test Drive shows featuring the new Civic). If you're a hardcore Honda fan like me and missed it...

Thanx yet again for posting that. What a refreshingly worthy use of bandwidth. Richard '93 Blk/Blk

Cool. I wouldn't be "concerned". Next time you're having service work done, I'd get it checked/set (checked to check the tach reading, set if out of spec). Just for the record, my '93 manual calls for (manual trans) 800 +/- 50 RPM under no-load conditions (no electrical loads/cooling fan/etc...

Unlikely anything "wrong" in terms of causing damage, etc., but considerably outside of spec. I wouldn't get too "concerned", but it does indicate either mal-function or mal-adjustment, and neither is desirable. I would get it back to spec at the next convenient opportunity. Aside from just...

It would be fair to say that my knowledge of suspension alignment is minimal, at best. There's a question I've ALWAYS had in my mind, and since we have the attention of some whose knowledge exceeds my own, and it's roughly on-topic, I think I'll ask it here: Why would one specify camber and...

Chalk that up as relatively painless feedback on the tech that did the work. Take note:( Richard '93 Blk/Blk

Kgb_agent: I keep hearing some of the neo-straightline-streetracer-types using the term: "ALL MOTOR". I think they're referring to a car with a naturally-aspirated engine. Sounds like the term "all motor" would aptly describe the car you drove. There have always been, and will always be...

That's a good show. Not that much NSX content, but if you're a Honda fan like I am, you'll find it well worth watching. On the other hand, I don't see that show on HC schedule for this Fri 0813. Netviper says: >>>The review was surprisly good. They hit on none of the negatives at all. I've...

Just leaving it in the hot car/trunk for a while before first use will help a LOT, giving it more stretch/flex. Put it on while still warm of course, and you'll have to work with it a bit the first time to get it on right. Subsequent installations will be much easier/quicker. I doubt there's...
