Searching for 'my' Holy Grail........

[Sudesh]

To do the job correctly you want to fit a KM/H to MPH converter, fitting the correct one will take out the 112mph limiter and obvously the car will read in MPH then, fit a rear fog light, I would not drill into the bumper or bolt on the silly looking one that attaches to the bottom of the bumper, just convert the drivers side reverse light. I have a very neat install on mine that lets me swap the reverse light for a fog light at any time, it does not affect the "bulb out" warning light on the speedo cluster either.

Also the radio either needs swpped out for a UK one so you get the correct channels and it reads correctly, either that or you add a "band expander" to the JDM radio. In Japan radios are made to receive in the 76Mhz to 90Mhz band, but in other countries you need as much as 108Mhz, so by fitting the band expander you receive the UK FM channels but this means your stations read differently, for example, if you want 98.3FM you have to put in 86.3 if using a 12mhz unit. Japanese radios dont have RDS either.

Here in N.Ireland another rule for MOT is that, the speedo must have a dual display ie MPH & KM/H.

I have been contemplating getting an 02+ NSX-R for several years, too, so I'm anxious to hear how your grail quest pans out. Unfortunately, I'm currently in the States -a market to which they were never exported- so even if I can find a decent one, I will need to store it at one of your homes in the UK (and it will need to be regularly driven too )

I believe you millons wouldn't

Well if your signature is accurate then you already own a very special and rare NSX .... any more details you care to share?

And welcome to NSXCB .... an interesting first post!

Well, I wish my NSX was particularly rare, but it isn't. It's rare in being one of the last VINs/models, but is nearly identical to the others like it produced en masse. I have another sportscar that is rare as hell, but I'd rather not get into it here. I'm an NSX guy, through and through.

Are you the one I am thinking off?

.........It's rare in being one of the last VINs/models, but is nearly identical to the 2002-2004 Silverstones produced en masse. ..........

Hopefully with black or dark grey trim rather than the blue that so many late silver's had?

The R is usually the one that people focus in on. However, more obtainable (if there's such a word) would be the Type S, and its available pre and post 02 design.

My other loves your forum name BTW, as she is a huge Harry Potter fan!

Please don't take offense to this, but this quote is a *perfect* response to Ary's question. I certainly hope he isn't thinking of "off-ing" me though! Just kidding my friend.

Back to our regularly scheduled NSX programming.

Well you are welcome here, NSX, NSX-R or NSXless.
