Haven't fully understood how more than 120 photos can disappear from only one specific photo album but after some testing, it became clear that they were not deleted by mistake.
More like not uploaded properly from mid/Apr on this specific album plus the handling of album changed at Google side.

All original photos are backed up at multiple locations so not a problem but due to the auto-sync, the commented ones were gone.
I think I found a workaround (for now) so going to re-start the blog update from today.



Massive catch up required as I'm already in the process of cleaning the rocker arms and replacing LMA.




Been working on another NSX for quite some time.
The menu is to carry out Eng Refresh inc. LMA.
These days, I prefer placing comment directly into the photo as the owner may not have any ideas on what I was trying to point out.
However, as I lost all commented photos until recently, I'm going to put some comment outside of the photo.










On arrival at my place, I found that FL brake disc was showing unusual amount of rust despite the owner driven long distance getting here.

Addition to this, the brake pedal sunk a little while I was moving the car back and forth for placing it on the lift.
Immediately carried out the standard brake master cyl test process and it failed.
The paint marking suggests that it was never replaced in the past and considering the mileage, very lucky it survived such long distance.


So, brake front caliper OH plus brake master cyl replacement were added to the menu.














The AC belt was very loose.

Most likely these trace of sticky black materials were splashed from the previous compressor (the existing one is non-OEM so being replaced in the past) and I hope the diameter of the pulley is close to the OEM one.
I have new belt ready to be installed but will keep the existing one in case there is huge difference in pulley diameter.
