Today, most of the time was used up for dealing with the installation of the optical fibre link to my house and sending out several coolant hoses for another owner who had problem recently.


So, not much to report on this NSX.

Already, the new spark plugs have arrived. Super fast delivery.


Will be used to warm up the engine for the compression check.

Collected the new Honda battery for MT model from the local Honda garage.


As reported previously, you don’t want to open this box inside the garage.


Due to the regulation, it is covered in ‘cat sand’ like material for transportation and guaranteed to make some mess when you take out the battery.


Also, at the bottom of the battery, there are several recessed area where this cat sand can be trapped.


Using the compressed air to clean the bottom side will make huge mess and best to do it outside.

Just placed the battery conditioner to fully charge it before warming up and cranking the engine for the compression check.


More to follow tomorrow.
