More misc mods


I use to have an aluminum tank but after thinking thru potential cooling system failure points I realized I wanted the OEM coolant tank back in; a new one.  I ordered the NSX-R coolant tank cover due to my open engine bay.


After my 2nd dyno session we noticed fuel pressure was dropping off at the higher RPM.  The crappy Walbro 255 fuel pump was to blame.  I upgraded to the Denso fuel pump.   Commonly called the "Supra" pump since it was OEM on a Supra.  This thing works great but make sure you double up on your wiring.  This pump will draw more power.  It's also considerably bigger than the Walbro.  If you want my advice, don't ever buy a Walbro...why?  removing the fuel tank is one of the biggest PITA things to do on the NSX especially if you don't have a hoist :rolleyes: 


These are the SOS engine mounts.  I only did the front and back mounts since those are the ones most affected.  You will notice a bit more NVH.  I believe the OEM are around 80 durometer but the SOS ones are 90 durometer - a bit stiffer but not a lot stiffer.  You will definitely notice the subtle firmness.  I reckon bad/worn OEM mounts was a contributing factor to me grenading my transmission at the track back in 2010.


Comptech CARB approved headers and high grade gold heat shielding around the oil pan.  I recommend not using the cheap gold shielding stuff because they either crumble, crack, or might even start a fire...yikes
