I like mine more every day, 11 years and counting - congrats

Thank you....

A while back, I went looking for the Taitec GTLW [for a 2002] and believe it not made anymore. Is this correct?

My first suspect would be the throw-out bearing - did they put in a new one when they put in clutch? They should have. The bearing only begins to rotate, against the pressure plate, when you depress the clutch. If the bearing was old and this new clutch / pressure plate requires more pressure...

Just for the record, check coolant level too.

Look along the length of the front r-sway bar and lower r-brace to see if there are any marks where they may be touching. [ if I'm reading your mods right]

The River Run is once a year [ or less ]. It's too good to miss. I'll be there. thanks C&F and mark.

RE: taking heat shields [ splash guards ] off - I learned here to protect the upper and lower ball joints from heat. My solution was to cut the shields down and add ducts - but the rotors and pads still get fried - 2" ducts is all I could fit. I'll add deflectors too.

Here's a question I always wanted to know - How far apart are the brake zone markers? And is it a standard distance between markers on most tracks?

Based on what the poster wrote: " On track i find i get terrible brake fade after a few laps. I only do casual track days and go out for a few laps at a time."..... The first move is to switch to a high temp brake fluid, like motul 600. A lesser fluid could easily overheat and cause the exact...

Check for pebble / object jammed in tire treads. Check lug nuts.

A while ago it occurred to me to store the car on these blocks to be nice to the springs [I have KW V3's and the car is low]. The center jack [rail] point on my car is 4" off the ground. These blocks are 5", so I'm just taking a little weight off. I drive year round but mainly on weekends. It...

I'll bet you'll need an impact [screw] driver to take off the Phillips head screws. An inexpensive must have tool. Use anti-seize when you put the screws back in. You may have to hold driver with vise grips and really whack it with good hammer.

This video is a fantastic help; enough that I would remove my clustert without concern. "Video tutorials" could become a thread within DIY.

By chance I came across this documentary [available on netflix and amazon] and it's amazing, especially if you are a track student/driver or interested in competitive motor sports. Turns out Jackie Stewart and Roman Polanski were good friends in the 60's. Roman asked Jackie if it would be ok if...

Report on NJ July 12 Group Install: Hugo's Install in New Jersey went really well. It's a quiet town and there's nothing like seeing as many as 8 nsx showing up where you live! We had neighbors, guests, even a couple owners who were just there to see everyone. My install was more preventative...

Hugo was totally self sufficient because he was travelling between events here. He was headed to Maryland the next day and Florida after that with his own rental. However, flying to the islands might be a different story. I made tools available like screw drivers [ with tape on them to avoid...

The sheet metal on roof is to keep squirrels from jumping on apple tree. I tried to explain that to Hugo - His reply: There are no squirrels in Portugal. And the master himself

So we ended up doing 7 cars in about 6 hours. It was like a chain reaction - Hugo taught me how to get the regulator out at 9 am- then I showed Josh, then Josh showed the next arrivals - then Hugo taught me how to put it back in - then I helped Josh and he taught others. By 1 PM I'd say all...

Group PM send to everyone with instructions Shinebox Blacktop99 AcuraNSXPilot KingKongNSX White98sh Dayta - - - Updated - - - And..... The Garden state parkway and Palisades get you close enough - so choose those roads. From 80 take GSP north [ not 17 or 4] -- if coming from South just...

Thanks to Syndicate for illuminating an issue: Here is note from Hugo: Hi Charles I just saw the link, there seems to have some confusion on pricing, the full install labor is 200$ but does not include the 200$ kit. That is 400$ in total per car for a complete job If you remove the door cards...
