Detlef, thanks for the hepl with the caliper color. I had dupont mix me that color. I hopefully will have my brakes stripped and have this color baked on shortly. Frank
paint the pads
Could you fix your gearbox and lockout box problems already?
Hope to read some news soon.
The R was sold to Thailand. yes.sold your NSX-R
Still waiting for some components, but till summer it should be installed and working right, also my new rear BBK.Bilstein race suspension building
Yes, both problems are fixed, I'm happy.
Made lot of new experience and finally it was fun to sort out the problems.
So what was causing your 6 speed transmission to emit a heavy spray of oil out the breather tube at high speeds and how did you get the transmission oil temperatures under control?
Finally R gearbox with OS Giken final drive and LSD inside in combination with light flywheel/clutch system is awesome,
I dont regret that decision, even if it was more work as expected to sort things out.
Same time I contacted Honda R&D here and they told me that I should remove Honda MTF3 gearbox oil because it starts to foaming at highspeed at nearly 150°C.
I contacted other NSX specialists and it seems that this MTF mist is a typical 6MT phenomenon.
It won't happen on 5MT.
On 6MT, all of them will show the MTF oil mist once you exceed about 250kph. It won't happen at lower speed such as 150kph, thats the reason why nearly noone in USA or Japan knows about that problem.
The racing guys from Honda had simular problems with the NSX-R race car.
I got special 75W90 gearbox oil from their Motorsport department which I filled in...
Thats right :wink:Now, our two NSX-RR just gets launched out from corners
Well, the Red Line oil is not very known here in Germany, but it should work too.I was planning on replacing the Red Line MT-90 (75w90) transmission oil I’m using now with Honda MTF3, but I guess I won’t. Even if my 5 speed transmission doesn’t spray oil like a 6 speed, foaming transmission oil doesn’t sound good!
Hi Detlef, good to hear your transmission issue seems to have been resolved. Did you use the Motul oil?
You state:
"Finally after some more serious highspeed drives at night with 300 km/h+ at my GPS I checked the catchtank situation again.
Absolutely dry, no single oil drop."
Well, my car has 312HP and 1.178 kg weight.That is about 186+ mph. How did you get your NSX to go 300+ k/hr?
Well, my car has 312HP and 1.178 kg weight.
How is the shift quality with Motul Gear 300? It looks like it’s a fully synthetic ester-based 75w-90 manual transmission oil just like Red Line MT-90, but I’m sure it’s easier to get here in Europe. With the Red Line MT-90, my transmission never crunches and the shifting effort is very low after the first few gear changes. If that's the case with Motul Gear 300 as well, I'll stop having the Red Line oil air mailed over from California.
