1991 Acura Nsx - 38,440 Miles on 2040-cars

Year:1991 Mileage:38440
Location:

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

 

History of my NSX:

I originally purchased the car in 1996, and it had 14,055 miles on it at the time. It currently has 38,440 miles. In my years of ownership, the car has never been in the rain. I put it on jack stands or on a lift every year and completely detail the chassis. It truly is one of the nicest early hardtop NSX's in the country.

 

Paperwork and Service Records:

I have all the paperwork for the car back to when it was sold new, including the window sticker, the drive out temporary tag, and every service record and receipt since 1991. They are all housed in a three ring binder in laminated sheets.

Recent maintenance in the past 1000 miles includes the following:

-Synthetic oil changes (two times)

-Flushed the brake system and replaced the fluid with ATE Super Blue DOT4

-Replaced the timing belt, water pump, all accessory belts, valve cover gaskets, spark plug seals, oil cooler hoses and all 22 coolant hoses

-During the timing belt service, it was noticed that the clutch master cylinder and clutch slave cylinder were slightly leaking, so they were both replaced.

-Valves adjusted

The NSX tech who has worked on my car since 2001 is Barney Demonbreun (aka Barnman on NSX Prime). He is considered by many as one of the top NSX technicians in the country.

 

Modifications:

The OEM exhaust has been changed to a Taitec GT Lightweight exhaust, which has a fabulous deep sound to it . The wheels have been replaced with a set of staggered Enkei PF01's (17" front and 18" rear) and they have a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 tires on them (approx. 9/32" tread depth remaining). The shocks have been replaced with Bilsteins, and have been set on the lower perch, which lowers the car approx. 1 inch. In addition, my car has a reusable Uni foam air filter rather than a stock paper filter. I have the original exhaust, original wheels and original shocks, and they also go with the car. In addition to the original parts I've just outlined, I have the original factory NSX car cover and storage bag, as well as an NSX front nose bra that's been used just one time.

 

If you are looking for a pristine, low mileage, fanatically maintained, never abused NSX, you won't finder one nicer anywhere. I've owned 108 weekend "toys" like my NSX over the 27 years of my marriage. I have done frame off restorations on a number of '60's and early '70's muscle cars to national award winning levels. My NSX is every bit as nice as those fully restored show cars I've owned.

Acura spotlights NSX pace car at Pikes Peak

Tue, Jul 14 2015

You can't just have any old street car setting the pace at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, can you? Of course not. For that task, you'd need a supercar with exceptionally high performance capabilities. Something like the new Acura NSX, for example. Fortunately that's just what the organizers of the annual Race to the Clouds selected to serve as official pace car this year. Honda's new hybrid supercar, set to be built in Ohio, donned a unique livery, a senior PR rep behind the wheel, and a smattering of GoPro cameras to speed up the 14,110-foot mountain. Naturally the twin-turbo V6 engine, nine-speed, dual-clutch transmission, and three-motor Sport Hybrid Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system formed an integral part of the package as well, even if its output hasn't been officially released more specifically than the "over 550 horsepower" we've been told to expect. The Japanese automaker also placed another couple dozen cameras along the 12.4-mile route and its 156 turns. Which is a good thing, considering that most of us weren't there in Colorado to see it make its run up the mountain, and nobody was there at each corner as it passed – except, of course, for the driver, Sage Marie. The rest of us will want to check out the minute-long clip Acura has released to see the NSX gun for the sky.

Honda is spending $124 million on a new wind tunnel facility in Ohio

Fri, Apr 21 2017

Ford isn't the only company building a multi-million dollar wind tunnel this year. Honda is also getting in on the action. Its new facility will cost less than Ford's at $124 million, and construction begins this summer. It will be built at the Transportation Research Center in Ohio, which is where Honda's NSX proving grounds are located. Honda will install a five-belt rolling road in the tunnel for testing of more pedestrian vehicles, and a wide, high-speed, single belt version for testing of sports cars and race cars. However, it seems the Honda facility will only be capable of testing wind speeds of up to 192 mph, whereas Ford claims a top speed of 200 mph. Cameras and microphones will also be set up inside the testing area at the Honda tunnel to help find wind noise trouble spots. Honda won't necessarily be the only company using the new wind tunnel either. The facility will be available for other groups and companies to use. There are even secure bays those groups can use for their work. Related Video:

Honda insiders push for Acura NSX Type R sans hybrid tech

Thu, Mar 10 2016

With 500 horsepower on tap from a sophisticated hybrid powertrain, there's plenty to love about the new Acura NSX. If the more performance-oriented elements within the Japanese automaker get their way, it could get even better. Speaking with one of the NSX project's chief engineers Nick Robinson at the launch of the new supercar, Autocar reports that there's an effort underway to develop an NSX Type R. Following a much-loved formula, the more extreme variant would pack even more power than the existing version, unburdened by excess weight. A big part of the targeted weight savings would come from ditching some of the heavier components from the hybrid system. The electric motor at the rear could stay to serve as alternator, starter motor, and flywheel. But the electric motors at the front would go, helping to shed a few hundred pounds. Throw in some lightweight materials and we'd be looking at a considerable weight reduction. It could even integrate some active aerodynamic elements that were excluded from the NSX on the road to production. Though the project may still be a ways off from getting the green light, but Robinson and some of his colleagues are working on prototypes ostensibly to make the case. He and his brother James (a powertrain engineer at Honda) will be driving a pair of NSXs at Pikes Peak this year – one that's as close to showroom stock as the regulations will allow, but the other will be closer to what they have in mind for a Type R. It'll ditch the hybrid system and put an electric compressor in its place to eliminate any turbo lag and produce even more power than the existing model. Now if they can only get the go-ahead from the higher-ups at Honda.
