  1. ABS Service

    by , 10-08-2012 at 10:37 PM (Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer)




    Even for the low annual mileage NSX, I strongly recommend flushing the ABS once
    a year if your NSX has the classic ABS.

    At least, if you ‘exercise’ your classic ABS every time when you take your NSX out

    I carried out Engine Refresh on this engine about 2 years ago and
    at that time, I was really pleased to see the identical compression
    result across the cylinders after the service.


    Interesting to see the condition of this engine after 2 years.

    Before



    This NSX is of early spec so it uses EACV with idle air port.

    Therefore, when washing the TH butterfly, you need to aim the cleaning agent at
    the specific place during
