Hello all!
New guy here, just joined. Unfortunately, or maybe more like fortunately, I dont own an NSX. Cost is the obvious factor. This leads to my point: where do you guys go for parts for these things? I read in one thread they wanted $4,000+ for a clutch kit installed?! Obviously this from the stealership, but this seems insane to me. I mentioned to a few members the site acurapartssource.com, as they are a sister site to the Subaru parts site I go to (shopsubaruparts.com). They dont seem AS ridiculous, but still very pricey. What makes the parts for these cars call for such insane cost? Low production values? Lots of R&D behind the cars themselves?
On another note, I'd also like to introduce myself as a "certified lurker" . I wont be posting noob questions like this very often as to keep the site clutter free as it is now. Its unlikely that I will post more out of this thread as well, unless it is to complement someone on their car. The reason I joined is because this is one of the first NSX forums that came up, and I like to be a part of forums where there is a wealth of knowledge to be gained. Maybe one day I will even own an NSX? It is on the dream list... :tongue:
