NSX Health Check Service

[Kaz-kzukNA1]

Hi, all.

Addition to my NSX Climate Control Unit (CCU) service, I have been offering the NSX Health Check Service for some of the members here.
As I received similar questions on this, I would like to share some of the information of the service and the maintenance works carried out based on the result of this.

[Edit: It will take minimum of 4Hrs plus another 1Hr for the report.
Due to the time required and to be fair with the owners who are taking the further service based on the health check report, the new price is GBP250 as of May/2012 and it includes GBP100 deposit towards the future major services.
The depoist is valid for a limited time decided by myself and as it is recommended to take Health Check service once a year, the time limit will be much shorter than that.
The criteria of 'major service' to be decided by myself.
The depoist of GBP100 won't be refunded to the owner if one couldn't take the major service within the time limit unless separate agreement has been made with me.]

As I can only carry out this during my spare time at this stage, it will be private/friend basis.

I will inspect your NSX for about 150 check points from top to bottom and front to rear. During the health check, I’ll ask several questions such as when the last time this part was serviced so it would be nice if you can bring your service record or study them prior to the health check.

After this, I’ll summarise the recommended future service works with three different priorities so that you can discuss with your mechanic or myself to schedule the service timing and also spread the cost. It is recommended to carry out this kind of Health check every 6 months regardless of the mileage since the last health check.

As a personal opinion, anyone with NSX workshop manual can carry out the service work. Also, anyone with the parts list can place the order for you.

However, the service result would be different depending on the knowledge, skill, experience and so on. On top of these, there are several things that can only be detected by the sense/feeling which is not on the workshop manual.

You could be ordering a part without knowing the fact that it could be repaired rather than replacing or it could be upgraded with small extra cost.

Addition to these, knowing the car from the development stage, understanding the specific design reason of each parts and experience in the motor racing will make different level of service.

Some of the members decided to go ahead with the Health check service and even went further to leave the car at my place or placed orders for the parts.

Followings are some of the works that I carried out recently.

New Front Brake Disks and Refurbished Front Brake Calliper with new pistons

Kaz,

Where are you based in Bucks? I'm also in Bucks.

There is quite a lot of work to be carried out on my car including air con, new front knuckles (worn ball joints!), replacement ABS modulator etc . . . not to mention window fix kit and other smaller items.

I had been planning for most of this work to be carried out at a local garage . . . well at least the larger work. However things like the Antennae still do not work properly so I would be very interested in your "check up".

Please PM me.

Regards
Nathan

Hi, Ary.
Yes, I can carry out these works and if your clutch is not slipping yet, it would be best if you can first carry out the health check and then discuss the future service work with me or with your mechanic. Quite often, it is best to replace several parts around shift folk area when you are replacing the clutch but not many people are doing this.

At the moment, I'm preparing to drop the engine and gbox from my car (5MT) and from another car (AT) in order to take lots of photos. Then, I would like to setup and offer several packaged maintenance menu. The aim is to be able to offer the refresh maintenance service for our NSX.
I just need more time and space in order to carry out these services. Hope to post something on here in the near future.

Hi, Nathan and amo.
I'll send PM to you after this.

Regards,
Kaz

I guess £150 is fair. Please suggest a couple of date and times. Looking forward to it.

I'd say that's an absolute bargain! From what i've read about Kaz he could charge double that per hour not just per inspection and it'd still be a reasonable price for his expert knowledege!
