Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

Before installing the new coolant hoses, replaced the CL Master cyl.
Looked as if the CL Hyd line was replaced in the past due to different colour although the shape was so close to the OEM one that it's more likely to be OEM one with faded/corroded coating.




Not sure this was done during the ownership of exiting owner or the previous owners but looks like the little friend was here in the past. They love chewing on these spongy protector covers as well as the actual wires.

With all chemicals I use and also my neighbour's cat, I never saw any issues inside my garage.






The existing bonnet latch was broken and couldn't open it with ease. It was the same as the last NSX that I serviced a while ago. The tab holding one of the spring got corroded and eventually broken off resulting in dropping the spring somewhere.

Looking at the price of new parts, it was easy decision to replace the whole things rather than just getting new spring and creating new tab. On installation, gave good cleaning around the area. Will adjust the alignment later.




New coolant hoses installed.

By now, battery is fully charged and already in conditioning mode outside of the car.
Placed it back on the car and primed the fuel system many times for leak check.




Will take day off today and hope to fire up the engine on Monday.
