Well, my question goes out to the owners of this prestige vehicle. My question is, does the NSX start to make weird noises as it ages: For example, body creaking, suspension creaking, and the sort. I noticed that when I first got my Civic and I start to mod the suspension and did a engine swap it started making a lot of rattling noises and bodyframe creaking. I've gone over it many times and with friends and a mechanic. And they are just things that can't be fixed. I was wonder if the NSX was the same way. I've also noticed that the European cars don't do this "as much." Some do and some don't. So, I was just looking into some of your guys' inputs. Thank you in advance.

 

I have a 91 NSX and it exhibits NONE of the things you speak of. It is reliable and if you saw/rode in it you wouldn't know it's a 91, (unless you know 'bout NSX's.)

I wonder if that's the result of the mods and not the actual car. What I mean to say is that your Civic, unless it's a CTR, was not designed as a high performance sports car and does not inherently have the necessary rigidity. In addition, perhaps the creaks are not coming from the "car" but the modications you added? Have you asked the HT Civic forums?

I think you should be able to fix some of the noises. At least you have some options.

1) Improve rigidity. Install gussets, braces, and bars everywhere you can.
2) Put back all the stock parts you took off.
3) Wear ear muffs.
4) Sell the Civic and a buy a Lexus.

I would think that that is a result of the owner's care of the car. Or what kind and how much the car is modded.

Its a 90k thing of beauty and yes I will have one in March. Im looking for a 95 Black/Black if anyone is interested to sell one at that time.

 

from what i hear, the NSX is so reliable that honda dont even carry parts for it. You would have to get stuff ordered.
