Semi-experienced shade tree mechanic here taking some time to tackel some deferred maintenance on my 1991 Formula Red NSX. Had the car since the end of 2020 and finally figured it's time as the weather is no longer freezing here in the PNW. This will include the timing belt, water pump, all...

Hey guys, first post on Prime do not beat me up too much. I am in no way an NSX export. I will be doing my 3rd k swapped NSX and have decided to document the build via pictures and videos. On this NSX I’ll be using a K24 again. Hoping on pulling the c30 out this weekend and get the ball...

Hi all, I'm in the middle of my 5-speed transmission rebuild. My plan is to retrofit the NSX-R 4.23:1 final drive set, for which I need to have the 90-94 torque control differential, not the torque reactive differential that came in the 95+ model years. The serial number on my trans case...

I created this independent thread to so it would be searchable easy and have all the right Tags. Summary: If you want to install a Thom Ayotte Camber Kit, this video will walk you through it step by step. Good luck. PM with questions. Updated Video. Just a small spelling error. Nothing...

Using NSXCA Tech Corner from the 2005 time frame I created this DIY video. I believe this was largely written by Larry B. I'm hoping this video provides some additional confidence for this activity. If you have any comments or suggestions please let me know. UPDATE: Funny when you watch...

My driver seatbelt is not retracting properly on my 1996 NSX T I took it to an Acura dealer (Nissani Acura in Culver City, CA) they tried to r&r and clean it but it did not work... I have to feed it in to retract (first world problem, I know). They are now telling me that the tension-er part...

It's an old car and I find relevant information is hard to source. Hopefully, this helps and maybe inspire a few more to come back to the track. This isn't a true DIY; it's the things my friend and I got stuck on. Think of it as hints. Take note there maybe better options than the ones we...

I bought an extra set of pads online (kit came with new mounting hardware and what I assume are wear sensors and some goop (anti squeak stuff?). I've got about three track days on the car and I'm not sure about longevity, so figured I would have an extra set on hard. I'm headed to Sonoma this...

Hello Everyone, If both your back-up lights don't work when in reverse gear, you've got 5 possible problems: 1. Blown bulbs. 2. Blown fuse. 3. Gear Selector (Automatic Transmission Only) 4. Bad ground 5. Back-Up Light Switch __ You can find the relevant pages in the 1991 Service manual...

Hi guys, it has been a while, but here's another backyard DIY. This DIY takes a while (depending on your amount of wheel neglect), but as always is well worth it. Here was my problem: Curbage, dings, chips, age, and neglect. Here's what I did to fix them: 1. Clean all dirt/grease/brake dust...

Had a fun weekend project installing and documenting a install for my Stop-Techs. I got the complete front and rear kit with parking brake and spent about 8-12 hours installing it over a period of a week. I've seen a few DIYs on this topic already but decided to take my own personal take at...

Figured since it's a DIY I would cross post here.... http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=150376

Right now my I have just finshed rebuilding the engine and the car is being repainted a few final things to get done but the major one on my list is the exhaust. Its too quite and IMHO ugly. As I live in Chile the cost of importing one is huge, frieght taxes etc so I think I will get one...
