    Although this is the 1st TB service for this NSX, the crank pulley bolt was not seized and came off with ease.


    The car is close to the last year model and still at low mileage so all of the bolts and nuts are easy to work with.


    Having said this, some of the TB lower ...

    New pulley installed and torqued to the spec.


    My Digital torque wrench that failed the other day was replaced with a completely new one and used it for tightening the pulley bolt to the spec.


    Thanks for the life time warranty and quick customer support from the manufacture and the tool shop that I always use.


    Tensioned the ACG and A/C belts and torqued all the bolts/nuts to the ...

    Although this NSX had several timing belt service in the past, as seen on almost all of the UK NSX, the crank pulley was never replaced after leaving the factory in Japan.

    After replacing the Crank Pulley on one NSX yesterday, another owner visited my place in the evening to leave his NSX at my place.



    Today, I'm working on it.
