I'd choose a different color. Too bad the wheels are black.
Thanks very much, Kaz.
My experience is that the manual steering is very ok as long as you stay with the OEM wheels (any size) with normal tyres (no spacers). But it get's annoying when you mount...
Correct, the dash light is ON (friend's car). For the money to hassle with the EPS you can buy a new manual rack and never mind about it in the future.
Switching the EPS OFF is not an option as the...
If a car has EPS, is it possible to throw the system out and install a manual steering rack instead? Any modifications needed?
Reason: the manual rack is much simpler tech and cheaper to...
I still trust Honda to supply the parts needed to keep the car on the road as long as the price is right for them. But not so sure about the 'nice to have' parts like Type S or R.

20 rest, I hope you get some of them. I don't think so for continental Europe.
Sounds like a bigger leak. You've mentioned that it hold pressure after changing valves etc. Have you ever changed all (accessible) o-rings? If not you'll be faced with a long-running problem with...
Refresh? Is the engine so bad?
I'd do an oil analysis and compression test before going that route.
'Matching numbers' is not so relevant in the Honda-world. Based on the silly (and proven wrong) statement of Enzo Ferrari that aerodynamics is for people who are not capable to build engines (haha),...
The easiest way to avoid problems is to change the Schrader valves every 10 years. You also change the valves with new tires for example.
They are not so hard to detect. The only part that makes...
Glad that you've found it just before the hot summer time. As you say those neglected Schrader valves are much cheaper than any other part in the A/C system.
One reason the forum got a little bit quiet is the absence of email notifications. Prime had this too and there was more activity after fixing the email function.
Forums were new and unique back then. Many Facebook sites seem to be 'lost places' nowadays too.
I'll drive mine more as soon as some 'personal' issues are sorted out which kept me from driving and repairing it. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one facing a similar scenario.
The cars became...
Maybe I've seen it when I had my Insights. Sold them 2018/late 2019 after 10 years. Nice to see a pristine one.
As for rare posts: rare driving, even rarer posts...:(
A good combination for fast road use is the front Type R / rear Type S swaybar but it also depends on the suspension. I don't think it works great with the OEM springs/shocks unless you run the Type...
Unsure if the internal oil take-up is touched or not. If the gap between it and the bottom of the oil pan is too small the oil pump might starve which sets the engine at risk.
The A/C compressor doesn't seem to work. Do you hear it kick in when pressing the A/C button to ON?
My A/C service station has two gauges to check the pressures while the A/C is running.
Are you...
In the US, yes.
Same for the old one: while the prices took off in the US first, they climbed in other regions later but with the difference that the US car get sold at their asking price while the...
One of the few factors that add to the potential for a hype of the NC1 somewhere in the future is the small amount of cars produced.
There's no number which expresses the fun factor of driving a car.
While the Civic Type R is an amazing car and is faster in straight line and around the track, the NSX is more fun to drive fast,...
Also at servicing untuned NSXs?
I'm very sad to see those shocking pics, esp. of the cam journals.
What are you going to do now? Throw the turbo out? A turbo system is only as good as its tuner is.
I went CTSC 10 years ago...
Do you mean the one in the bumper face?
Not sure where the A/C system gets get the info from exactly but the A/C is shot off at very low temps.
It would be my first test. I once heard of an A/C stator failure.
Just undo the connector next to the oil stick and apply 12 V to the A/C coil at the compressor and see if it spins. If not you'll...
