As mentioned earlier, since this NSX is fairly new, I was expecting easy life this week. Wrong idea…… Should have known better by now…… Surprisingly, I struggled to loosen the spindle nut at the rear hub on such a beautiful low mileage fairly new NSX. At the end, I had to spend extra time and had to apply well over 800Nm to loosen it on both sides. ...
Again, with extra tubes and pipes, needs to be careful not to scratch the hidden part of the engine bay when removing the air box. Looks like never cleaned in the past. The routing of the blowby gas with the red valve cover is far better than the one on the black cover but still, it managed to create sticky residue even ...

The main service menu is to refurbish the drive shafts, replace the crank pulley, TH butterfly cleaning, etc. Due to the recent strange weather, it was too wet and windy so not much point in carrying out the pre-service test driving session. Decided to start the service immediately. I was hoping to wash at least ...
After installing this on all four corners, I covered over 8,000miles and the rears are about 1mm to go before starting to hit the wear limit. As my chassis setup is quite different and while I don’t accelerate hard (WOT in lower gears), I do use really hard braking so my comment may not be the same for your setup and driving condition. For OEM wheels, even with the today’s latest technology, I still felt the OEM NSX specific tyres suited ...
In the past, I showed the example of chassis frame repairing work and recently, several NSX in Japan went through the similar services. You can find the past example here; http://www.nsxcb.co.uk/entry.php?40-NSX-Repair-01 (All of the photos in this post are from Mr Toyoizumi at KSP Engineering in Japan.) The following examples are carried out under the insurance work so the owners were very fortunate to be covered with ...
