Or you could cover in clear vinyl like they use for stone guard (or clear bra as the Primers call it) ... I've used this in the glove box to protect the autograph I have in there ... nice touch having JB's autogrpagh
When I followed the blog I presumed it was your car in with Kaz ... nice way to begin ownership

A Wash and wax before going in the garage, Lots of new bits ordered, mainly nuts and bolts and new wheel nuts- I hate the oem locking nuts! they stick out too far, not sure if I need them.... Alloys will be refurbed soon with new centre caps.
Still no sign of clutch slip despite 151k miles on original clutch.

What a beautiful car.
Great to see someone else getting fantastic clutch longevity. I've done 135k and thought that was good, but 151k is amazing, well done you.
i know one things for sure, when it does need replacing I'm fitting another OEM clutch for sure.

Most of the mileage was done by the previous owner, however I have never replaced on clutch yet on any of my cars, my civic vti had 170k miles on original clutch when I sold it! its out there somewhere still I think!
With Vtec engines as they are high revving I think its important to rev match, this saves the clutch and transmission....and engine for that matter, that's why I love manuals, my CSL although classed as manual will blip on a downshift when i pull the paddle back, although its quicker with no clutch work, for me its not as involving.....I love heel and toe in the NSX........nothing better than a perfect rev match!

Really rusty around the accelerator box....
Used some hydrate 80 as it stops rust and also adds a coating and drys clear. Will probably get the supporting and surrounding brackets changed at some point.
Replaced 4 bolts and washer....much better for now
Did an oil change too, silkolene race pro s 5 40, was going to stick with Mobil 1 0 40 but bought lots of silkolene last year when it was on special.
