    All four callipers including the brackets were washed, inspected and overhauled.
    Master cyl was also overhauled.

    Once I'm happy, the system was pressure bled to get rid of tiny air bubbles.

    Although the owner didn’t activate it regularly, all four solenoids were still working fine and it was easy to flush them.

    Another common failure item. The CL master cyl was already leaking inside the cabin so had to remove the carpet to clean the leaked brake fluid.

    At the same time, the slave cyl and CL hose were also replaced.

    6. Main Relay
    Even during the Health check service, the engine failed to fire up while it was warm. So, new main relay was installed. The old one was re-soldered and conformal coating was applied for added protection. It will be kept on the car for an emergency spare. As it was non-DBW model, it was easy to replace it.

    Even this NSX was 94 model, the Main Relay was using the parts from 1990.
    New Main Relay with the parts from 2009.

    The timing belt was replaced a few years ago but not the crank pulley.
    So, definitely, it’s best to replace it now.

    If you are doing this as DIY project, make sure to get hold of pulley attachment tool (MT or AT version) and proper torque wrench that can handle 245Nm.

    8. A/C CCU service and cabin temperature sensor
    Although the owner didn’t mention any issues with his A/C, I was 100% sure that the capacitors inside the CCU would be leaking so we decided to have it serviced.

    And, yes indeed, most of the capacitors were leaking. Lots of cleaning process was required as well as many damaged circuit pads and lines had to be rebuilt.

    At the same time, the cabin temperature sensor was cleaned as it was full of dust.

    The header tank was already cracked and the owner brought the new one.

    All of the hoses need to be replaced in the near future but for the time being, I just replaced the header tank.
    If you are creative, you can replace it without loosing too much coolant.
    As a precaution, I bled the entire system afterwards.

    10. MTF
    Before removing the Left side driveshaft, MTF had to be drained.

    At the same time, I always inspect the MTF strainer and replace the O-ring at the cover.

    Although there was no service history on the gearbox, the strainer was full of some kind of sealant.
    Unfortunately, due to the structure and the mechanism of the transmission oil pump, it is not possible to flush the gearbox without rotating the rear tyres for a long distance.

    The gear shifting was very smooth after replacing the fluid but I asked the owner to come back to my place during the Silverstone Classic event.

    We’ll replace the fluid again and check the strainer to decide whether further flushing is required or not.

    I'm glad we checked the strainer at this point.


    Another very happy owner!


    Time to say good bye to this Type-R and back to the beautiful silver NSX as I have unfinished business on this one due to my back pain and couldn't complete the service before Japfest.


    Regards,
    Kaz

    Hi Kaz it sounds like it could be my old type R, if it has the Mugen headers most probably it is. I believe that the is a Mugen Item and the box had some special ratios, making acceleration very rapid.

    If it is the one the full service history was with it when it was sold in 2007 to the previous owner.

    Great job BTW as usual.

    Think its your old car too Ary as its Charlotte green and I dont know of any other NSX-R here in that color.

    Looks like it has color coded roof and aftermarket suspension?
