    NSXPO 2024 Registration

    I'm registered also! See y'all there!

    NSX changes by year, NA1/NA2 explanation, and production numbers (all in one simple chart)

    Ah, I remember why I had 21 as the NA2 coupe number in my head now! The 2001 coupe that is listed as automatic is actually a manual - I think the Wiki is incorrect here. It sold at Barrett-Jackson a few years back to @NYCNSX but not sure he still has it. So, in summary, there are two manual 2001...

    99 MCB "Reimagined"

    Definitely black if the options are red or black jersey! Who's doing the upholstery work? Assuming they're doing the cushions too? It's awesome to see so much seats activity again!

    Question about the which models of the Gen1 NSX has C32B engine in it

    I think the number of NA2 coupes is 21 by my math. At least, that's what I tell myself, lol. There's no such thing as a "fake" R/S! Conversely there's no such thing as a "real" LHD R/S or a 100% recreation on this side of the pond. Everyone is just varying degrees of modification on that...

    Question about the which models of the Gen1 NSX has C32B engine in it

    ^^ indeed there are... my euro twin! Except your car is much nicer than mine :D Don't forget on that chart, 00+ have updated LMAs too. Idk if that rises to the level of critical threshold or not but I figured ti was worth the shot :)

    NSX Type-S and R Seat Questions

    Interesting - I didn't know you could get orange stitching from the factory on the OEM orange/black type S seats. The ones that I've seen all have black stitching..

    GT-One Stainless Steel Ver 5.1 Exhaust

    Yes, they're well north of $1000... maybe for a pride, not a genuine GT-one. I sold an SS 5.1 for $2200 back in 2017 and they've only gotten more difficult to find since then.

    parking at cota

    Yes, I'd probably just use the shuttle if you can. I parked down there last year and while it was fine the first two days, race day was a nightmare - took almost 2 hours each way just to get in and out from the track.

    KSP muffler is not centered

    Paging the legend @DreamPowered - can't remember if he has KSP or RFY headers, but he has KSP muffler so might be able to help.

    Deciding between coupe and T-top

    Excellent viewpoints, with one small clarification, there are a few non- Zanardi coupes with colored roofs :) namely, there are a few Brooklands 94 cars w a matching green roof, and 3 NA2 coupes originally ordered w body colored roofs (I guess more if you count Berlina Black NA2 coupes... or...

    Recommendations for a good quality trickle charger for off season storage

    Yes, you want a maintainer. Trickle chargers as Doc said can overcharge... ask me how I know... Been using a battery tender on the NSX and a NOCO genius on two others cars for 6+ years now - both brands are great. I prefer the NOCO but both are solid.

    99 MCB "Reimagined"

    Nicely done and looks great! What you're feeling in corners is definitely a combo of everything - coilovers, R front sway, R chassis bars, reduced unsprung weight from the S wheels and possibly even the tire compound. For me, doing these things in sequence all resulted in incremental positive...

    NA2 Coupe Owners

    Interesting but doesn't seem like the coupe - if you pause the video at the right times, looks like the breaks on the roof line for the targa top are there. There's at least one USDM Monaco targa running around Japan with a painted black roof, so it seems more likely to me that this is it rather...

    leather cleaner and conditioner recommendations

    Agreed - Leatherique has been the only cleaner / conditioner that I've found to be any remotely worthwhile in terms of actual lasting results. Used it in all my cars - leaves a nice matte finish. It's a bit annoying to apply, but the results are well worth it and once you do the first long...

    KSP NSX-R Style Seats?

    Ouch - the fit on those covers looks quite poor. Curious to see if anyone has more pictures / experience with them - I'm particularly curious about the fit/finish and the quality/uniformity of the weave on the shells.

    Official Kaiser Silver thread

    Yep - believe Kaiser was available since MY91, and there's at least 1 kaiser NA1 type R out there.

    Honcho's Long Road to Imola Type-S Zero

    Nice to see this thing out and about! How are the ECS treating you so far? My RS4's have finally bit the dust and I'm thinking about trying a slightly more temp-friendly compound to extend the driving time I get during the year, but a little concerned about how the tire feels compared to 200TW...

    CCU removal/repair

    I'm pretty sure BrianK is in the Midwest and he's your guy for repairing the CCU units anyways. May just want to reach out to him. A few thousand dollars to pull and repair the CCU is highway robbery.

    Recaro fitment questions.

    Correct. Not to mention a different shell material...

    Anderson Hill Road in Purchase NY

    Roger, did it have a front license plate? Not sure if he's on prime, but IG username rgao.co has a brooklands coupe on Prodrive GC-07's and lives around here in the Tri-State area. Could be him... Hope you're doing well!

    Dang... this thread made me anxious to get my car back on the road again. :D

    Your NSX Car Cleaning Kit?

    Sorry! I am just seeing this now. For the paste wax (typically my very last step), I usually don't use the DA - I just do it by hand with a foam applicator. For the sealants I'll use the DA with a pad (with zero cutting ability) and then hand top it ~24 hrs later with the P21s.

    Congrats! Was this car in Woodland Hills by chance? I think I spotted it on Friday :)

    Glaze then Wax?

    Do you have some pictures of the car / paint and the imperfections you are trying to remove? That will help determine what level / intensity of polish to recommend. Depends on the glaze of course, but most aren't made for cutting out heavy swirls; you use them as an interim polish between a true...
