My non-compliance bushing equipped rear beam and toe links have arrived, purchased at the NSXPO 2012 auction. Table 8!

you can always just weld them while its still installed in the car LOL

I want this but never time to do any work on my own car
 
Shad sent me a fresh set, I send mine back to him after they are installed (hopefully later this week). Shad is insane and a perfectionist, so I'm sure the non-compliance pieces from other vendors are good, but his will always be just a little bit better :)

As I've talked with those who have done this mod they all said this should be the very FIRST mod done to any NSX - its that good. I'm only about 16 years late to the party.
 
if you take your car near the track they should be the first suspension upgrade you do before anything else they make the car way more stable when changing direction
 
So I've been flipping busy as hell, so I opted to have the dealer install the beam and toe links, I also brought the SOS Steering Rack Bushing Kit and had that done before the it gets aligned tomorrow. They also found a bad A/C seal on one of the NEW lines they put in last fall, so they are replacing that for free. I put a fresh set of Panther+ pads on the front, a splash of Motul 600 and I think we're looking good. Now to get it home and put the Difflow back on...

So after driving it for a week, it feels like a new car! Tight cornering, no movement at all (unlike before) and super predictable. It could be just me, but it does feel a little stiffer (I'm running HKS Hypermax IIs on the softest settings for the street) over bumps, and gives the impression of feeling/hearing them a bit more. Very worthwhile, and highly recommended mod.
 
lol..as you already said.........what took you so long!:biggrin:
 
I thought I'd do everything else first just to be different...

how much was this? also which local dealership works on your car?

Thanks!

Parts are Driving Ambition or SOS - or get them at a reduced price at the NSXPO auction like I did. Buerkle Acura (763-424-4545 and tell them I sent you) did the work at 4hrs shop rate, or around $500. I found a 15% off service coupon for them online as well!
