    Probably, the most neglected area on the UK based NSX, the brake system.


    After test driving so many NSX using exactly the same route and scenario, almost none of them passed my test for the brake system.


    The cause of the issue is simple.


    It was not properly overhauled (OH) at regular interval.


    In fact, on most of them, the system was never OH after they left the factory.

    Sealed the brake master cyl ports as it is time consuming task to get rid of tiny bubbles from the cyl without taking it off the car and bench bleeding it first.


    Original ABS removed. Heavy and quite big.

    Without the ABS, it’s quite roomy down there.
