    NSXPrime Vendor Subscription

    So call me out of the loop, but today I noticed that Procar's thread was locked and thought... must be the 1,500 post limit! No, since my powdercoating thread was also locked, I figured it must be something else... I'm a pretty small time vendor, probably one of the smallest. I'm a 1 trick...

    Unofficial Rare JDM NSX Parts Thread

    I believe the limiter is in the JDM ECU because when I go over 180 kph and faster, it just buries the needle but I continue to gain speed. I'm going to attempt to "adjust" the cluster so that 180 kph is actually 180 mph but I wanted to sit on a speed dyno to do so. Maybe in the spring, I'll...

    Introducing the Authentic Honda OEM Type R Red Valve Cover Powder Coat Service

    PM sent! I'm waiting for Nero and redat9's covers to arrive before I can kick off another batch. Berlinaguy85, if you can send your covers over, I can probably kick off a batch without Nero's covers returned... though I'd prefer to have ALL my covers back when I kick off a batch... Nero...

    Head cover bolts (valve cover)

    Should not be bottomed out... with a new gasket and fairly fresh grommets, it should not bottom out. Though the service manual does not specify a torque sequence, I suggest tightening the 2 center nuts first... but not all the way to 7lbs. Get them more than finger tight, then get the rest of...

    You guys won't believe this. My stereo install.

    You know, I think you've convinced me. I don't know why I kept thinking this unit was over $500 minimum. Must be those high Alpine prices of the H700 and H800 that completely steered me away from advanced digital processing. At $280, like you said, even if you went with a small amp for the...

    You guys won't believe this. My stereo install.

    That's pretty low as it is and might be enough for some... Passive eliminates the electronic processing cost and going from 5/6 to 3/4 or even just a simple 2 channel would be desirable esp. if you are still getting much better sound quality than OEM. Personally, I'd still do a sub and a...

    NSX-R test car ECU troubleshooting...

    Looks like they have immobilizers but if the ECU shown in this thread is an indication, it's the first generation standard immobilizer which can either be bypassed or reprogrammed. No special VIN necessary. In Japan, they discourage the selling of Type R parts to non R owners by requesting the...

    NSX-R test car ECU troubleshooting...

    That's the pic I need. It's using the older generation Immobilizer chip in the HIC402 slot. Can you confirm if the green key blinks in the car? If he's willing to desolder it, the immibilizer can be bypassed. Just turn to IGN2, wait until the green key finishes blinking or goes solid, then...

    You guys won't believe this. My stereo install.

    Rather than find a tweeter to match the mid, I'm sure a high quality passive crossover can be built for the speakers you have already chosen. Of course it won't give you the ability to adjust the crossover point, slopes, time alignment or all the other speaker protection logic the Front Row...

    You guys won't believe this. My stereo install.

    Some comments so far. Loved the speaker door work. Stayed completely within the spirit of OEM. You could put that in and get great bass response and midrange and no one could tell that anything was modified. Perfect and beautiful. Tweeters are definitely a challenge and I understand the...

    NSX-R test car ECU troubleshooting...

    I don't know of many JDM Honda cars that have immobilizers. I can't say 100% for certain but odds are, if the NA2 Type R ECU was from Japan and NOT EU, it will not have an immobilizer. IF the ECU is from the EU, it will definitely have an immobilizer which will need to be defeated. I can...

    Anyone have a 2002+ NSX for sale?

    IMHO, I don't think the track times can compare with all things equal. Feel is very subjective... I remember Jenson Button being asked when he went from Honda's RA108 mid to rear field F1 car to Brawns BGP001 which domainated esp in the first race... he said it basically felt the same. I...

    Is your NSX failing smog? Read this.

    johnnymo, this could be solution! I've been failing smog 6 of the 8 years of my NSX ownership! Tried almost everything but not this... I barely pass the high speed but my HC and CO are at the limits but idle fails HC miserably. Going to have a look this weekend and might as well order up a...

    Reverse Lockout Help

    Not sure if this will work but Lingenfelter makes an MPH activated switch. It's designed for VSS signals that produce 4000 pulses per mile, not sure if the Honda VSS signals produce that many. If it works, it's $115. If I remember correctly, the lockout should activate when there is power or...
