  1. No email access

    by , 10-06-2011 at 10:53 AM (Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer)

    From time to time, I experienced big issue with the seized bolts and nuts on our NSX.


    It is a classic car and considering the amount of salt in the air during the winter period, I’m not surprised with this.



    Following information was supplied from our member ‘Graham’ on this site.

    The engine room and front compartment looked very dusty.


    As I don’t want any dust to get inside while I’m working on the engine and brake system, decided to first wash down all these dust.
