Hey guys,
I am just trying to map out my summer 08 plans for my car, a couple things on my list were a valve adjustment and alignment. I just called Suburban Acura and they quoted me $664.51 for the valve adjustment! I thought it was supposed to be around $300. I didn't even ask about the alignment...which I figure I'll need after I install bilsteins at some point.
Anyone have any good leads on a good independent place that can be trusted with NSX's or just honda/acura in general? I hate taking my cars anywhere to have work done to them so most everything I do myself...I suppose I might be adding this to the list. For $300 I am happy to let someone else do it, but for $664, I'll get the tools and do it myself...I used to do the valve adjustment all the time on my prelude back in the day.
 
After reading through the DIY's I am going to attack the valve adjustment myself...I was worried it was much harder on a VTEC engine than on my old prelude....but looks to be the same. I think its just harder because of the access...but I am going to try to order the parts and knock it out in the next few weeks whenever the temp goes up a little. Worth my time to save the $500+
