    Thoughts on the SOS Sport+ Valve-Delete Exhaust vs Valve-tronic Sport Exhaust

    I believe as long as you are not showing up at the dealer and saying the car does not meet emissions and your expectation is that Acura will fix it. There should not be any issues. Acura and Honda have always been supportive of tuning as long as you did not alter the ECU programming. I took...

    Parts for sale

    I have in addition to a new never installed JB4 unit for $650 shipped, several other parts. If you have a 2017 NC1, and want Acura Link, then you need the newer Telematic unit. I have one that sells for $1400+ new. Mine is used from a later model car. Selling for $750 shipped. Also have a...

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    You certainly hit all the great places. Excellent planning on your part.

    Maintenance quote from Acura Dealer

    The differential fluid change is part of servicing the transmission in my mind. The trans uses the trans fluid as does the front twin motor unit. The differential uses the special gear oil from Honda. This is what makes the whole trans fluid change complex and time consuming and expensive...

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    I can’t imagine living anywhere else. Wish I knew you were in town. I would have bought you that coffee.

    Maintenance quote from Acura Dealer

    I agree that the prices you received are reasonable and not too high. The transmission is complex in that there is the trans fluid, but also gear oil. You have to remove the rear underneath panel which has a lot of attachment points. Very time consuming. Also Honda specific materials. I...

    HRE 101 Lightweights...Crushed it.

    Great looking wheels. Now swap out the 12 volt battery for a Lithium battery and save another 30 pounds, then replace the exhaust and save 20 to 26 pounds more. Looking so good.

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    The beauty of AI in medicine is that the computer can review all the published reports, and outcomes and do a much better job of predicting when a particular situation should be investigated further. When you look at a chest X-ray you are among other things looking for anomalies or things that...

    2019 power system problem and power brake problem

    Your warranty period does not change. It is still 100,000 miles or 8 years from the in service date. If the car was sold new in California I believe the traction battery is good for 150,000 miles or 10 years. They had to remove a lot of stuff to get access to the traction battery. Rear...

    forever backorder on shocks?

    I know this isn’t ideal, but you can get used on eBay. The fronts are not too difficult to remove. They come out as a complete unit. There may be a possibility that the shock can be rebuilt. I do not recall looking at the unit after removing the springs as to whether it is a sealed unit...

    Limited Floor and Cargo mats

    You’re correct, I just have never seen them before. When I originally tried ordering a 2022 NSX I recall it was listed as an option.

    Why there are so many discontinued parts for NC1?

    I noticed when I looked for parts related to the front bumper certaint items were listed as discontinued. It did not make sense. As an example the passenger front lower bumper is available but not the driver side. 04712-T6N-A00ZZ Face, FR. Bumper (R) (FRONT BUMPER) MSRP: $3338.45 $2337.58...

    Limited Floor and Cargo mats

    Just got the limited edition floor and cargo mats for our cars. The came packaged in individually wrapped foil that would probably last for 25 years. They will look great in the car. Anyone else have them?
