Any thoughts on this one?

I have transisitoned from a wide eyed admirer to agressively, yet cautioulsy, going about finding my NSX. Like many, my target is a clean quality unit with lower miles and priced under $35K. This one has peaked my interest, along with that of several other buyers!
1991 Acura NSX Red/Black
$25,500
Vin #: JH4NA1153MT002766 Transmission # J4A4 1003765
Current OD: 45786 miles
Condition: Excellent all around

1. need new front tires (within next 2k miles)
2. Rear right wheel has a curb mark
3. Someone keyed on the rear right quarter about 8 inches long
4. ABS brake needs service

The owner is very passionate about the vehicle but the maintenance is a concern. The tranny is in snap ring range and has not been addressed. Timing belt/water pump is also original.

Thanks for your time and expertise,
Micah

Fair deal... figure 1500 for TBelt service .... 1000 to repair rear quarter ... ABS system could run 2000 if it needs a new pump.

The ABS problem could be a big deal.

If it is simply stuck solenoids repair may consist of exercising the ABS by locking the brakes a few times. Pine needles on a parking lot are ideal. :wink:

The next possibility up the ladder is to exercise the solenoids with a home brew switch box from a friendly NSX owner or at a local dealer that is familiar with the problem.

If it is a failed modulator (totally stuck solenoids) list price is $2800 for a new part. Rebuilt units are no longer available.

I needed a new modulator and even with a friendly dealer who will discount the price you are talking $2200-$2500 for the job.

Low miles and a low price...just figure putting 3-5k into it and you'll have nice runner (most likely).

And even at that, it's still a decent price with that few miles...at least in my area.
