Just seems like good information, especially for folks looking at NSXs as their next toy. This site should inform about "what to watch for" as well as all that is good and righteous about the NSX experience. Also it may help answer the question, "If my 91/92 NSX oem head unit goes south, would...

If you have an OEM head unit that has failed, eg: no sound, no display, static, etc, what year NSX was it from? I'm trying to gather data on OEM head unit life expectancy. I know there may be factors other than age, eg. time in use, volume, etc. But Lets start by identifying the model years in...

A small but very interesting detail, Ian. Well done.

Wanted: OEM Head Unit in WORKING condition. If you have one that is still in the car and working and you are ready to upgrade, PM me and let me know how much and what your paypal address is.

Pretty sure the R model is sold out. I think they sold out before the first one was delivered.

I don't think most classic car radios typically don't have etched circuit boards. I think the challenge there is finding replacement vacuum tubes. I have exchanged emails with BrianK and he has no interest in taking on failed head units. I just sent an email off to Williams to get some feedback...

***SOLD*** SOS gets $119 plus shipping for one of these. Mine was in the car for a couple thousand miles only and is in like-new condition and I will ship it to your door for $100. Looks just like it does in the SOS ad. The pics below are somewhat yellow due to lighting.Boot actually looks...

Probably due to the fact that Ford finally ditched the solid rear axle. It was great for drag racing but not much else. ;)

Yes...get the codes independently read. Any Advance Auto (and probably Auto Zone as well) will read the code at no charge. I don't see how lower octane gas would damage the O2 sensors. But they could well be the issue causing the CEL. If so, its probably a coincidence. Lower octane gas will...

Well, the Radio Roller Coaster takes another downward turn. Alpine Electronics customer service called me today. They had three spare reconditioned units but, of course, the always bench test replacement units before sending them out. Turns out all three units failed and, when examined, all...

Another vote for silver. And yes, there are mounting holes for the badge.

Doug, this may not be real good news but the console is available new, for a 97. Match to the earlier finish is almost perfect. Bad news is it goes for about $700 discounted. I bit the bullet but I can't bring myself to get a new ac outlet at those prices. Mine isn't cracked, fortunately, in...

Stoptech has an ox to gore. And just because they make brake systems doesn't mean the copy writer in the marketing department knows what he is talking about. I offer the last sentence on the page as a quick example: "If the brake fluid is topped up the first warning of warn out pads will be the...

That's what I'm (I was) talking about.

I'll rent you mine. But you will have to post a rather significant bond. ;)

Honda. Although lots of folks seem to like the SOS clutch.

Now THAT is detailed realism in a model. Congrats.

How can you tell that the rotors are not warped. While the most likely culprit is the deposit issue first mentioned by nsxtasy, warped rotors can't be ruled out unless you have measured the run-out on them and it is within spec. I also like the possibility that the floating calipers might not be...

How about a completely refinished OEM style console garnish, with matching AC vent surround and arm rest switch/vent garnish pieces in the factory color (depending on year)? Seems to me that is a growing market as the originals get scratched up and start to bubble or wrinkle.

October will be 5 years for "the cool car" as my wife calls it. Congrats, LMR. Here's wishing you many more years of Happy NSX Motoring.

You can get tint now that is virtually clear yet blocks a pretty high percentage of UV. Nice choice if you have a mesh or lexan engine cover (or none at all) and want the engine to be on full display.

OEM head units and they are hard to find used in working condition. Also hard to find someone who will work on them. Cap leaks. Same issue as the CCU and the Bose speaker amps. I expect some advances in component design and materials engineering will mean that a 20 year old Tesla will be more...

Yes, the speakers and their amps are Bose but the head unit is Alpine. Jim, before you give up, why not give Alpine in Torrence. You never know unless you ask. I assume the US and Canadian units are identical. If they say no, maybe you could ship it to one of our US based primers and they could...

Maybe but then there was this... "Import duties, taxes, and charges are NOT INCLUDED in item prices or shipping costs. These charges are buyer's responsibility" I don't know what type of import fees this would be subject to but I would check before buying. And if you want a prop rod to keep it...
