Check out Science of Speed's site or Dali racing for replacement parts. It could be that "common" problem with the NSX. My windows are fine, but I still bought those metal brackets the last time I ordered something from SOS....just in case. The stock ones are plastic, I think.

If your car is an early one it has the faulty widow regulator thingy described above. Cars above 1994 (I think) have a corrected factory part. Both of mine went and if you fix it in advance it will save you $700 per window. You'll have to pull the door pannel off to know -if it is broken you'll need to replace the whole window regulator and have the window realigned which I understand can be tricky.

my car is a 91 and its windows are sluggish. you can tell when they go up that the front of the window is falling down out of alignment.

I think this may be because of the worn out plastic pieces too

Go get it fixed before the window falls into the door.

Sluggish windows mean you need to clean and relube the tracks.

As for the "fix it widgets", they are tricky, but not hard. You'll need to remove your door panel. Then remove the whole window regulator (make sure your window doesnt drop down). With the regulator out, you need to get two pairs of pliers and pull the 2 metal wire ends together. There is barely enough slack in the wire to get one side out. Just takes brute force.

Wow,
I read the title of this thread and thought it was a Microsoft issue :biggrin:
who knows maybe bill gates had a hand in the NSX. Oh no, wait the car was designed on a Cray computer.
