    Steer rack making screeching sound when turning steering wheel to the right

    I had my steering rack rebuilt in 2019 by Matt Lindsay. Recently I've started to hear screeching noises when I turn the steering wheel, and an NSX master mechanic today, upon inspection, that he believes it is the steering rack.

    Monel key

    I have a 1998 with a factory security system. I have always been under the impression that the monel key doesn't work for my car for some reason. I'm revisiting this assumption. Can anyone shed light on whether the monel key will work? I don't know if I have a factory immobilizer.

    How to remove CF overlay on center console

    Hey gang. The car came with CF overlays on the center console. God knows how long it has been in there, but if I want to remove it, what is the best way to do so without damaging the paint? If I had to guess it has been on there for 10+ years. Heat gun then peel? Thanks in advance.

    Austin folks - please suggest best school districts & housing areas

    Hi there. We moved to Austin from California a year ago. We live in Lost Creek, which is right next to Westlake Hills. We feed into Eanes ISD which as someone mentioned earlier is arguably the highest rated school district in Austin. Hit me up on PM and we can exchange info and we can talk offline.
