Thanks to all, especially Kaz and Old Guy, for the help and encouragement on this issue.I'm not surprised that Alpine didn't want to attempt a repair on a board with a lot of electrolytic damage to the main board. In researching this issue on the internet, it seems like Kaz is one of the few...

Just talked to customer service at Alpine. They are returning the unit to me today as non-repairable. Capacitors have leaked onto the main board. So, $25 down the drain for diagnostic service plus the $23.14 it cost to ship the unit to them. Nigel, if you run across that company I would be...

Thanks, Kaz. Great information from one of the most knowledgeable of Primers. We did find an issue with a relay and when we swapped it out with another in the same bank and we got power at the door amp (iirc). We did get some faint hissing from the door speakers with the radio turned on and...

You might try Alpine Electronics of America in Torrence, CA Contact inf at http://alpine-usa.com/company/contact Maybe they can direct you to a better contact in Canada.

I just installed the 97 console trim. I have what I assume is an older ash tray, possibly from a 91...not original to the car as that one had a cf overlay and was sold with the old double-din cf clad console trim. I must say it is great having a beautiful flawless center console, although the...

Update. I talked to someone at Alpine in California and they said they would attempt to repair it or possibly exchange it. Off it went last week, along with a check for around $248. Fingers crossed. If they do get it working (or discover it is working just fine and the problem is elsewhere) I...

Damn. I was hoping they would hook up with NetFlix as rumored. I already get that. One of they boys will have to get Prime before the show airs.

Not much wrong with a 3 in White: And the 6 makes a lovely shooting brake. The interiors are really nice, too.

Leaders of our hobby, all. Without them (and the Internet) keeping an NSX on the road or improving it would be much more difficult and expensive. I have a BrianK CCU and Hugabuga window kit in my NSX, and soon my vtec rockers will be dampened with SOS lost motion assemblies.

To expand on Zoom's mention of the Miata, Mazda may just be what Yinzer is looking for...a maker of sub-30k cars that really has its groove on. Their cars are, for the most part, lighter than competitive offerings from Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Chevy, and Ford. The 3 and 6 receive universal praise...

Congratulations. Here's hoping everything is good with the car and wishing you many miles of happy motoring.

I've also run across Kaz's blogs in my research. Why do the Brits get him? We need him here in Mer'-i-ka! If I find a repair solution I will post it here.

Thanks for all your ideas and for posting the diagram, OG. I ended up taking the car to a trusted mobile audio shop owned by a former NSX enthusiast (He had a 10 second car! I've seen the car and the time slips.) Anyway, a scope on the output pins showed no real signal...just a bit of noise. The...

Hey, Voodoo08...That was directed at myself for asking if the OP was from California after he said he would have to ship his car to SoCal. Not at you for your offer. Sorry for the mix-up..

:eek:

Um....

And yet the service manual includes a timing belt inspection procedure. I guess that's a nice money-maker between scheduled replacements. And I suppose the belt could get contaminated with oil or develop some other issue between changes.

So can I assume you are in the Southwest somewhere? California maybe? And +1 on what nsxtasy said about casting a wider net. Spending a few hundred dollars on air fare could mean finding almost exactly what you want at the best possible price.

Thanks, Old Guy.First thing I am doing is taking the car over to a trusted audio shop. The owner is a former NSX owner and he knows the bose system. We are going to start by checking to see if the Bose amps in the door speakers and subwoofer were bypassed to accomodate a high level output signal...

Not to argue with one of Prime's most knowledgable members but...Ok...Yeah, I'll argue with the Pope if given the opportunity...;) Actually I only paid 1K for the timing belt job. It was time, not mileage that necessitated the change. And most of the...

I have to disagree. Around five years ago I found a lightly modified 91 with 78K on the clock for 27. It did need a tb/wp which I had done before even picking up the car. But you could find 91 NSXs in various states of modification and mileage back then from the mid 20s to the low 30s. Yes...

Sweet. You are lucky to have such a great dad. Not to mention the lift. ;)

Happy Ending to..."Working" OEM Head Unit replaces Pioneer AVIC-X910BT - Now no sound Everything on the radio seems to work. Antenna goes up and down with radio power as it should. Casette section seems to work fine. Just one problem. Not a peep, rattle, or hint of hiss from the speakers at any...

I envy you guys who have managed to find clean pre-beak TSX's and TL's, 'Ludes, Del Sols, RSX's and Nike Covert VRS's. Nice drivers, all.
